“Kindred spirits are not so scarce as I used to think. It’s splendid to find out there are so many of them in the world.”
(Anne of Green Gables, by L.M. Montgomery)
A cantankerous, red-haired orphan and an amiable girl with raven locks become the best of friends. Not a likely pair, but Anne and Diana were kindred spirits.
The bond of their friendship went beyond appearance and temperament. As does ours.
We are a family — kindred sisters in Christ. Our bond is built on God’s grace, a grace that supersedes our differences.
We are a community — kindred friends who gather here in fellowship to encourage each other in every season.
In our joy and in our brokenness, we remain kindred spirits.
“I want them to be encouraged and knit together by strong ties of love. I want them to have complete confidence that they understand God’s mysterious plan, which is Christ himself.”
(Colossians 2:2, NLT)
