Tolerating the Mess

by N. Gordon Cosby

If you feel you can’t tolerate the mess, the only advice I can give to you is this: Choose what for you is a better mess, if you can find it. But wherever you go, you go to the next mess.

You may take a couple of years to find out how messy it is, but you will find it to be a mess. God has tolerated many messes for many eons.

Galatians 3:26, 28 For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

The Bible places an extraordinary emphasis on the value of “unity.” Let us not lose focus on the Word's powerful calls to peace and unity.Jesus prayed for the “oneness” of all those who profess to believe on him through the testimony of the apostles (John 17:20-22). Those who take seriously their claim of faith in Christ will work conscientiously for unity among fellow believers. They will not celebrate differences that segment people into warring factions that disgrace the name of Christ and the oneness of the Christian cause. With all the calls for purity in the church, let us not lose the equally powerful calls to peace and unity.
