"Righteousness and peace kiss each other," Psalm 85:10.
Yep. That's what the Good Book says. Want peace? Do right. Not only that. Steadfast love meets faithfulness. Want love? Do commitment. That's what faithfulness is: doing the actions of loyalty. Faithfulness goes up, righteousness comes down. God's saving embrace welcomes whoever respects Him. That's revival! What's revival? Revival = renewed life = coming to life again. O God, won't you revive us? Yes, you will. When we listen to your words. You speak peace with your people. (When we don't pursue fools' errands.) And your glory sets up camp right here among us. Your footsteps give us the path. Thank you, O God, Jehovah!
With a brother or sister today we celebrate God's renewal of our lives in the righteousness of Jesus. And, together, we give thanks to the God who loves steadfastly.
