I have shared before that Trish and I don't always see things the same way; we don't always agree on the same things. She is a female and I am a male, and we see things from different perspectives. She may want to paint a particular room or wall a vibrant red, whereas I am a very basic, very neutral wall shade guy. She may think we need some something on every square inch of that particular wall that we just pained, and I am a minimalist.
However, when it comes to the important things, the things that truly matter, we are always in agreement. We want to serve the LORD and seek and do His will. We want to raise our children in a Christian home and let them know that they are loved by us, and GOD loves them even more. We have a certain way to live, and we try to instill that in our kids, and we agree on these things.
Today's word is a simple word, but one that has proven true time and again. Mark 3:25, NKJV, reads, "And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand."
We see the message of this verse displayed and played out extensively in the world that we live in. There are few days go by that we don't see how the division in families, in communities, in society, in our government isn't working towards failure. We see the direct correlation of divided beliefs and constant disgrace and defeat.
While there will always be differences of opinions and extenuating circumstances in every situation, we have to find common ground on which to stand. We may not agree on most things but we can all agree to love GOD and to love one another; that simple decision could change it all.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
