When I can’t seem to find you and you can’t seem to find me,
when unity is threatened
and the oneness Jesus prayed we would have is broken and the
pieces to rebuild seem to be missing,
when the bond of peace has been compromised and
I can’t see past my own issues
or you can’t see past yours, let’s agree to meet back at the stronghold,
{a place safe for both of us}.
That way you won’t have to venture too far,
nor will I.
Let’s meet back here, at the foot of the cross, where it all began anyway…
The scripture I circled and signed in Tredessa and Ryan’s wedding Bible, from Ephesians 4:
“1 As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. 2 Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. 3 Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism; 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.”
INFJ that I am, I am drawn to scriptures about “guarding” things (“make everey effort”)…
