A Family Blessing -- Singing Together
/The Lord bless you, and keep you;
The Lord cause His face to shine on you,
And be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up His face to you,
And give you peace.
Numbers 6:24-26 NASB
God loves families. He has placed each of us in our family at our birth. If we are adopted or marry, we gain another family. And so, we belong to each other.
God blesses families. Our human family is a picture of the family of God. In His family, we belong to each other, and we need each other.
This was especially true during the recent worldwide pandemic. During the quarantine, we were amazed how people across the miles connected with one another in many ways. We needed to “be together.”
And our ability to ZOOM made that possible in an amazing way. The most famous blessing in the Bible — the Aaronic blessing found in Numbers 6:22–27, was musically shared in song by voices all over the world.
Enjoy this beautiful blessing of peace and God’s presence in three different ways. And please share your meditations with us below.
PS Watch for John’s post next time. In it, he will share his current family discoveries from ancestry in our travels through Missouri. It shows how the Lord “places the lonely in families.” Psalm 96:6a
