[[-SOAP HUB]] | [[-Psalm Overview]] | [[Psalm 113]] ## Title: Everyone Has A Place In God’s Family ## Scripture: (Psalm 113:9) “He makes the barren woman of the family a happy mother of children. Praise the Lord.” (NET) ## Observation: I have always dreamed of pastoring a church that was not predominantly young or old, white or black, male or female. I have always dreamed of pastoring a church that looked like Heaven. This also goes for those who do not have an upbringing or a current situation that mirrors everyone else. This can be difficult because it is hard-wired into us all to go into every room looking for people like us. It gives us a sense of calm and that we are not alone. In the Kingdom of God, we have the opportunity to create environments like this. The doorway is salvation. Once we establish Jesus as our King, we can begin to grow from there. Our rallying point can be something greater than our melanin, background, or cultural status. It can be that we are all saved by the grace of God. When we do this, everyone can find their place in God’s family. ## Application: How are you making room for people different than you in God’s House? ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for always making room for us.
