Let me be united with all who fear you, with those who know your laws.
Psalms 119:79 NLT
You'd think that by now we (the christian community) wouldn't still need to be reminded about unity...but this is an age old thing...the psalmist here wants all those who know God's law to be united...to be on the same page...
Am I an agent of unity or disunity?
Am I about the things we agree about or the things we disagree about?
We're human, don't always get things right, as we learn, grow, understand our views on things change...but our unity as Christ followers should always remain...

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
