Praise & pray for us!

Lev.19:33-34

"When an alien lives with you in the land, do not mistreat him. The alien living with you must be treated as one of your native-born. Love him as yourself, for you were aliens in Egypt."

This law, built into Israel's constitution, demonstrated God's concern for those who want to become part of His family. Repeatedly He warned against the temptation to mistreat those who were not part of their group. God has always wanted His people to reach out to those from other people groups who desire to learn and follow His ways.

Father, alert us to the "aliens among us" who come from all over the earth. Show us how to welcome these immigrants, refugees, international students and businessmen in a sensitive manner, so they may learn to love and worship the God of heaven and earth.
