Living in the Spirit

August 15, 2023

Scripture Reading: Psalm 133
How very good and pleasant it is
   when kindred live together in unity!
It is like the precious oil on the head,
   running down upon the beard,
on the beard of Aaron,
   running down over the collar of his robes.
It is like the dew of Hermon,
   which falls on the mountains of Zion.
For there the Lord ordained his blessing,
   life for evermore.

This is such a beautiful poem, just reading it lifts our spirits. Working to make it a reality is even more rewarding.  I am so tired of the divide-and-conquer worldview in which we live. Finding common ground for the common good is not impossible. Divorcing ourselves from greed and lust for power is a good place to start.

Prayer:
Bind Us Together, Lord
Bind Us Together
With Cords That Cannot Be Broken
Bind Us Together, Lord
Bind Us Together
Bind Us Together In Love *Amen.
