Psalm 133

Psalm 133

How good and pleasant it is

    when God’s people live together in unity!

It is like precious oil poured on the head,

    running down on the beard,

running down on Aaron’s beard,

    down on the collar of his robe.

It is as if the dew of Hermon

    were falling on Mount Zion.

For there the Lord bestows his blessing,

    even life forevermore.

Unity is a rare and treasured thing on this earth. We only see glimpses of it here and there.

I think perhaps that unity is what I crave the most. That I long for people to love one another selflessly and give of themselves unconditionally.

I long for His life evermore. His blessings of unity and peace.

I long to live in unity in His tender, loving care.

Today I find myself wrapped up in all the chaos and uncertainty that is to come. I find myself spiraling into a sea of what-ifs. 

Today I find rest in His promise for peace. In His promise for unity one day in eternity. I look to Him. I look to His eternity and I do find peace. I find hope.

I press on. For He is my Lord and Savior.

For this is what the high and exalted One says—

    he who lives forever, whose name is holy:

“I live in a high and holy place,

    but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit,

to revive the spirit of the lowly

    and to revive the heart of the contrite." Isaiah 57:15
