The Holy Spirit binds us all as one
Who came unto the shadow of the cross
And gave our life to Christ, God’s first-born Son,
Now counted closer than a family’s gloss.
So here we are as one and Spirit led.
The things that caused contention surely cease,
For now the love of Christ’s the common thread
That brings so naturally a bond of peace.
Where there was once dissension we find grace,
No longer slave to sin and anger’s hook;
Forgiveness helps us run the longer race,
A stamina not gained by hook or crook.
When differences arise within the flock,
The key of Christ will open any lock.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Endeavour to keep the unity of the Spirit
in the bond of peace.
Ephesians 4:3 KJV

amen!
We are glue. We are locksmiths. We are empowered. We are free. We do not need to fight. We have a hook in the nose. The images conjured here are boggling me. Just for the record, I could have gone the other way tooo and endorse this wonderful sonnet in the WORD…. We have peace that passes understanding Philippians 4:7 …… We have grace. Ephesians 2:7 We have anointing. IsaiAH 61:1; Luke 4:18 The key of CHRIST did more than deal with hell. Revelations 1:18 but opens and shuts doors that none but HIM can do. Revelation 3:7,8 HallELuJAH!
I think you said it all, sister.
