1 Chronicles 12
DIFFERENT BUT UNITED
If you count very carefully, you will see that all fourteen tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron to make him king. (Fourteen includes Levi, Ephraim and the two half tribes of Manasseh, along with the usual tribes of Israel). The act of making David King was probably the most united that the tribes had ever been or ever would be. Both previous to, and after that time, differences split them apart – sometimes for a moment, and at other times causing an irreparable breach.
Differences are going to happen among us whether we like it or not. We all have different personalities, backgrounds and needs, so it is impossible that we are going to see eye to eye in every situation. But one thing we can and must unite on is in setting up Jesus as our king and Lord. On that point we should be completely united with each other, just as Israel was completely united when they made David their king.
Let us unite for Christ.
May God grant us a spirit of unity with our brothers and sisters this week.
With love in our Lord,
Robert
