Love is glue

 

In a recent Christian Contemporary Music song by Matthew Maher, Hold Us Together, Matthew sings these words:

 

And love will hold us together
Make us a shelter to weather the storm
And I'll be my brother's keeper
So the whole world will know that we're not alone

 

This is the first day of the rest of your life
This is the first day of the rest of your life
'Cause even in the dark, you can still see the light
It's gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright

In the final analysis, what is it that becomes the glue that holds us all together.  Love.  Love of God, and love of others.  The words of the chorus of that song "this is the first day of the rest of your life" are so applicable aren't they?  Especially since none of us are sure it might not also be the last day of our lives.  Sometimes we just need to pay a bit more attention to some of the simpler things in life...like loving (God and others) and sharing it.

Whether or not we are going to stick around for a while (something we don't know), it sure can't help to get the glue out and use it.  Let's love today !
