Thought for the Day by Dave Howarth ​(Lead Pastor Holy Cross Church)

“[Christ] himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one.” (Ephesians 2.14)
We tend to be familiar with the idea that through the cross, Christ reconciles us to God. Yet through the cross, Christ also reconciles us to all who are in him.
That reconciliation doesn’t simply mean the absence of conflict, or that we’re pretty friendly to each other. Rather, we are “one”. Consider your body. Although it has many parts, it is one. Now consider your church. It is not simply a group of different individuals and households who happen to regularly worship the same God together. You and they are one.
When you next spend time with Christians – or even just think about another Christian – wouldn’t it be good if this was one of your thoughts: “they and I are one.” The more of us who do that, the more Christ – who “himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one” – will be glorified.
