Daily D – Psalm 133:1

Psalm 133:1 How wonderful and pleasant it is when brothers live together in harmony! (NLT)

—

Harmony is harder than it has to be. Too many people today prefer to sing solos.

A social media post making the rounds shows U2 adapting their song Pride (In the Name of Love) to honor the Israelis killed by Hamas terrorists as well as the Palestinians killed by Israel’s forceful response. (See it here: [https://bit.ly/46IrmQV])

We have attempted to live in harmony with our Black Dog for the last twelve hours or so. She awakened me around midnight with a politely urgent request to go outside. Then she did it again a couple of hours later. And again a couple of hours later. And again when my bride arose for the day and again just now.

She is appropriately apologetic. She does love us so. I will stop for yogurt on the way home from my early appointment with the shoulder surgeon. Millie the Black Dog and I understand one another and work together to keep from having to clean up a rather unwelcome mess inside our home.

You and I will have innumerable opportunities to sing solos today. We will make more beautiful music and cause fewer messes if we learn to sing in harmony.

Let’s sing together, and let’s make fewer messes.

I will learn to harmonize.

Our Father, we need more harmony and fewer solos. Remind us how working together works. Empower us to join hands, hearts, and high parts to make beautiful music that honors you and blesses others. Amen.

Daily D – Deuteronomy 30:19-20

Deuteronomy 30:19, 20 “This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the LORD is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.”

Daily D – Deuteronomy 29:29

Deuteronomy 29:29 “The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.”

Daily D – Deuteronomy 26:16-19

Deuteronomy 26:16-19 “The Lord your God commands you this day to follow these decrees and laws; carefully observe them with all your heart and with all your soul. You have declared this day that the Lord is your God and that you will walk in obedience to him, that you will keep his decrees, commands and laws—that you will listen to him. And the Lord has declared this day that you are his people, his treasured possession as he promised, and that you are to keep all his commands. He has declared that he will set you in praise, fame and honor high above all the nations he has made and that you will be a people holy to the Lord your God, as he promised.”

Daily D – Deuteronomy 23:4-5

Deuteronomy 23:4, 5 “For they did not come to meet you with bread and water on your way when you came out of Egypt, and they hired Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in Aram Naharaim to pronounce a curse on you. However, the Lord your God would not listen to Balaam but turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the Lord your God loves you.”

Daily D – Deuteronomy 17:16-20

Deuteronomy 17:16-20 The king, moreover, must not acquire great numbers of horses for himself or make the people return to Egypt to get more of them, for the Lord has told you, “You are not to go back that way again.” He must not take many wives, or his heart will be led astray. He must not accumulate large amounts of silver and gold.

When he takes the throne of his kingdom, he is to write for himself on a scroll a copy of this law, taken from that of the Levitical priests. It is to be with him, and **he is to read it all the days of his life so that he may learn to revere the Lord his God and follow carefully all the words of this law and these decrees and not consider himself better than his fellow Israelites and turn from the law to the right or to the left.** Then he and his descendants will reign a long time over his kingdom in Israel.
