Chosen Woven-ness:
Obeying God, Ministering to Refugees
God gives each person free will when He creates them. He loves us enough to give this freedom to us. We must decide with the free will God gave each person if we will obey this internal and written mandate to care for the oppressed, widowed, poor, orphaned, and alien. We must decide if we will weave our weft threads on the loom with the refugees’ and asylum-seekers’ warp threads to make a beautiful tapestry with God. This tapestry woven together is stronger than the individual, singular weft threads or warp threads. With this woven tapestry, “we” and “them” become “us” that supports, encourages, helps, teaches, feeds, and walks alongside as the family God envisioned humanity to be. We each get to choose to be woven by God into the beautiful tapestry of community and love. This is chosen woven-ness. You get to choose; God does not force you. If you choose not to weave into the lives of others in your community, you force the gifts God gave you to stagnate or extinguish. You become the weaker person in the community because you do not have the strength of the whole community, only your own.
Will you choose to be woven by God into His tapestry of a compassionate and loving humanity?
This is a decision each person must make for him or herself whether you are a Christian or not. Will you choose to care for your neighbor, the refugee who lives near you? Or, will you ignore them?
