It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the LORD bestows His blessing, even life forevermore. Psalm 133:3
These beautiful words are the final words of a three verse Psalm. Identified as one of the wisdom Psalms and a Psalm of David, it calls for peace and unity among family and community. Harmony is placed as a priority.
Mt. Hermon marks today’s northern boundary of Palestine. Its snow caps can be seen from great distances making it a tremendous landmark. Refreshing breezes blow from its cool heights, across the heat of the lowlands. Spring melting feeds summer’s lakes and rivers. Morning dew is a refreshing respite in the arid and desolate deserts.
Peace, like all other things of great value, is difficult to find and obtain, but once obtained it is a great treasure. Peace, where the LORD bestows His blessing…..life evermore.
Love,
