When Brothers Dwell in Unity
A Song of Ascents. Of David.
133 Behold, how good and pleasant it is
when brothers dwell in unity![a]
2 It is like the precious oil on the head,
running down on the beard,
on the beard of Aaron,
running down on the collar of his robes!
3 It is like the dew of Hermon,
which falls on the mountains of Zion!
For there the Lord has commanded the blessing,
life forevermore.
Jesus walked in the middle of the crowd of people but he choosed only 12 persons to be His servants. 12 persons chosen – not because of being very intelligent, beautiful, well born or smart – only chosen because of their engagement with the words of the Lord. He chose them because of their honest and pure heart. The Holy Spirit reigned inside them and made them confess that Jesus is the only one, that the followers are the members of the body of Christ. Jesus wanted them to feel and think like Him, to love themselves and in the same way love all brothers and sisters.
They were the messengers of the Lord, those who could bring people out of the desert, out of the desert that is in most of the humans.
Nowadays christians are chosen to be the messengers of Jesus in a world that is full of temptations that will not lead to the way that god prepared for us. Most of young persons have no idea what to do with their lives, how to bring sense in their thoughts. Christians have to help them, are chosen to lead the ones that have no guide in their lives. It is up to bring the love of jesus to everyone not only to those that are easy to be loved. – Love also your enemy – says the Lord. When we meet persons that are blind by heart – not only in their eyes – it is on us to show them the way. When Jesus orders to leave the desert he means not only the real desert but the desert of our hearts. – And leave everything behind – not to bring the old things to the new, promised land. To be able to leave the desert it is necessary to get rid of everything that is weight without any importance. A Christian has other things that are important to him compared with a disbeliever.
….. Mark 1:2 I will send the messengers – …………
We are messengers, we are the cunstructors of the house of the Lord, we are columns, the walls, the members of the trunk.
God, help us to love those who are near us, send us the Holy Spirit to be able to show the light for all persons in our surroundings, let us forgive them, let us love them, we lay our heart and feeling in Your hands.
