I just got back from a very nice meeting. Two brothers who care about the same things, trying to work out the problem I mentioned in yesterday's blog.
And we did work it out.
It turns out it was never an issue of integrity or the lack thereof - it was a lack of information. Once the whole picture was spelled out, we found we were on the same page.
The Message delivers Psalms 133:1 this way:
1-3 How wonderful, how beautiful, when brothers and sisters get along!
It's like costly anointing oil
flowing down head and beard,
Flowing down Aaron's beard,
flowing down the collar of his priestly robes.
It's like the dew on Mount Hermon
flowing down the slopes of Zion.
Yes, that's where God commands the blessing,
ordains eternal life.
All good - all good. Of course, now I'm left wondering: was I just a little too eager to be offended? Wow - this is good stuff, this 'let a man examine himself,' it can open all kinds of doors for God.
