Strengthen Your Brothers

Here is today's communion meditation.

In Luke 22 Jesus told Peter that Satan wanted to sift him like wheat but then Jesus said, "But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”

Recently I heard someone say that the phrase, "that your faith may not fail," can actually be translated as "that your faith may not become inactive." Sometime the pressures of life can feel overwhelming to the point where our faith becomes inactive, but we need to keep exercising our faith, even if it's only in small amounts. 

There is a phrase that's repeated all throughout the Bible that says, "if you would see with your eyes, hear with your ears, understand with your heart, and turn," then on the other side of the turning is where the healing, refreshing, and good things are. 

In my book, "The 8th Date," we talk about how understanding God's grace is what leads to the turning. When we understand that even when we miss it and fall short that God is still working for our good, then that understanding leads to turning back to him. And once we turn back to him it's time to strengthen our brothers. 

In today's communion we are asking God to help us have a consistently active faith, to turn to him in any areas that we need to, and to help us strengthen our brothers.
