Harmony

grandgirl a few years ago




"How good and pleasant it is when God's people live together in harmony!" (Psalm 133:1)

I LOVE this picture of the grandgirl a few years back. Just wish I could remember what she was saying and who she was "straightening out."

A good word for this Christmas season is HARMONY. I opened Larry Stockstill's daily devotion this morning and read: "Harmony is a choice to sacrifice one's personal agenda for the greater good of the 'team.'" Then I opened my Promise Book devotional and read: "Live in Harmony" followed by:

"Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud... Do not be conceited. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." (Romans 12:16,18)

"May God, who gives patience and encouragement, help you live in complete harmony with each other - each with the attitude of Christ Jesus toward the other." (Romans 15:5)

"Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble. Do not repay with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing." (1 Peter 3:8-9)

"Minimize friction and create harmony. You can get friction for nothing, but harmony costs courage and self-control." ~ Elbert Hubbard

Beloved, may your family walk in harmony like a well-tuned orchestra. ~ Jill
