"A Mutual Love"

"They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God." (Psalms 84:7)
I actually think it takes more than a village to raise our children correctly, it takes a knowledge and a oneness with the Living God! Here is something that is exciting about today's election, win or loose, it has brought people together on the important issues. I am not saying that we can change things right away; even if we could, it would create such a division; we have gone too far down that rabbit hole to just get jerked back out. We need some sort of revival, something that changes hearts, and brings people back to the love of God. That's pretty much the biggest problem in this country, that no one really knows what they stand for anymore, so we each go our separate ways, undetermined to stand together. Take this verse of instance, each of those that are going to Zion are all going for a single purpose, to appear before God. It might not seem like such a big deal, but if you were one of those traveling on any one of those roads, you would understand that it puts things into perspective. Nothing matters more than our love for God! It is our love for God that makes us stronger and stronger, takes us from grace to grace, and gives us the strength to fight another day. Say what you will, but I will choose the side that honors God any day, any time; there is just no comparison at all. Take a look at the heart of the matter. Does it stand the test of having a love for God? How about a love for each other? Every one is going to appear before God; just remember that...
"Since this new way gives us such confidence, we can be very bold. We are not like Moses, who put a veil over his face so the people of Israel would not see the glory, even though it was destined to fade away. But the people's minds were hardened, and to this day whenever the old covenant is being read, the same veil covers their minds so they cannot understand the truth. And this veil can only be removed by believing in Christ. Yes, even today when they read Moses' writings, their hearts are covered with that veil, and they do not understand. But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. For the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord -who is the Spirit -makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image."
(2 Corinthians 3:12-18)
