Prayer: God of all, may we live in unity as our words and actions sing to you in unison of our praise to you. Thank you for your blessing of life evermore. Amen
Reading: Psalm 133 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: The following hymn was a favorite of one of my former pastors: “Join we all with one accord; praise we all our common Lord.” I would paraphrase it: “Sing we all with harmonious chord; in unity we praise our Lord.” The earth sings. In pattering rain, a babbling brook, waves constantly splashing on the shore, the chirping of a tiny bird, or the song of a mighty whale. As God’s people, let us create harmony through our words and actions. Living together in unity…for there the Lord ordained his blessing, life evermore. (v. 1b, 3b) --Alice Yeakel
