God’s world, we need one another

Sunday January 14, Psalm 96: Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great deep. O LORD, you preserve both man and beast. How priceless is your unfailing love! Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of your wings. Both High and Low find refuge in the shadow of your wings,….Thank you Lord. It is easy for those on the bottom to point to the ones on the top as the problem. It is easy for the ones the top to point to the ones on the bottom as the problem. The reality is that one group does not liberate the other or save the other or give the other meaning, but that the children of God working together help liberate one another. The first thing to be recognized is that everyone has been given gifts from God. Failure to see the “other” as your brother or sister in Christ is to “cut off your nose to spite you face.” In God’s world, we need one another and when we begin to recognize that, we begin to recognize the glory of God’s creation.
