One: Lent Devotional ਨਮੂਨਾ

The faces of Christ
God loves diversity. Everything created has a unique identity. Yet all of this awesome abundance of uniqueness is held together by one thing: Christ. All of it, all that has ever been made, was made by and through and for Christ (Colossians 1:16).
There are around 125 billion galaxies in the known universe. All of them are unique. Each of these galaxies contains hundreds of billions of stars. All of them are unique. Most of these stars have planets orbiting them. All of them are unique.
One of those countless planets is of course the Earth. And in this gorgeous world, there are around 8.7 million different species of life. All of them are unique.
And one of those beautiful species is us. Human beings. Today, there are around 7 billion of us. All of us are unique.
When we look into a face, we see a beautiful uniqueness, but also a beautiful connectedness. We see Christ. Who is our neighbor? Everyone; and in everyone, Christ.
Prayer:
Christ over all, thank you for the diversity of your creation. Help us embrace and celebrate it. And open our eyes so that we can see you in all things. Amen.
