It is like the precious oil on the head, running down on the beard, on the beard of Aaron, running down on the collar of his robes! It is like the dew of Hermon, which falls on the mountains of Zion! For there the LORD has commanded the blessing, life forevermore.
Yes, Lord, there was a time when Israel was in complete unity before You as Aaron was installed as the priest of the people. All rejoiced as that unity called for You to enter Your Tabernacle in confirmation. But how quickly did that unity dissipate as the people and even Aaron and Miriam began to grumble against Moses, Your appointed leader.
Lord, bring an unslakeable thirst to Your people, a thirst that drives us to come together as Your people, worshiping You in spirit and in truth.
