Harmony

“How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in harmony!”Psalms‬ ‭133‬:‭1‬ ‭HCSB‬‬

David wrote this Psalm. I wonder if it was an encouragement for his children, for his friends and colleagues? Harmony in children is not easily won. As they develop and become their own person they can follow a different path and harmony is absent. David’s family revealed this. He had several wives and children to each. Solomon was his last and the one chosen to take the throne. This was unusual but it was God’s choice.

In the very public Royal family of England we have watched this happen with William and Harry. The ideal is harmony. Yet, without the residing Holy Spirit it is not always possible.

In church life we have different bents: the musicians like to hang out together, as do the ministry teams, the young people and the old people all have their own groups. Even within the groups some are single, some married. Each has its own path. Working together in harmony comes as we yield to Christ.

What would He have us see and do today? There is the question! Amen!
