Relationships or just Relations

Excelsior True Believers!

God reminds me of so many things. Sadly, sometimes He has to tell me a few times somethings because I just did not hear him the first or second time. 
Today I was in my devotional time with God, and I was brought to Psalm 133 and Romans 12. And in Psalm 133 verse 1 says "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is
For brethren to dwell together in unity!"

How great is it when brothers dwell in unity. Unity of course is the key word here. We are called to live, work, act in unison. And sometimes that can be difficult, especially among Christians. 

We let the minor things become major things and make us into wolves instead of sheep. Like last night for example. Captain America: Civil War came out to theaters, Team Cap all the way! And the premise of the movie without spoiling it is that Iron Man wants the government to regulate them and all super powered peoples. 

This tiny thing disrupts the team, and the universe into a brawl in which feelings get hurt, friends split apart, even some die. 

While a great read, or watch for the movie adaptation, this should not be how we are in the church.

We are called to love each other, to support each other in good times as well as rough times. We are the bride of Christ. Why do we forget that? Why do we focus on the color of the carpet, who owes whom an apology, should the lights be on our off for a candle light service...

Lets strive to live in unity with our brothers. To not only love them as God loves them, but to actually like them too. To dwell in unity. 

Until next time.

Take Care and Spike your hair!
