How good it is!

I CHRONICLES 12
38 All these, men of war, arrayed in battle order, came to Hebron with a whole heart to make David king over all Israel. Likewise, all the rest of Israel were of a single mind to make David king. 39 And they were there with David for three days, eating and drinking, for their brothers had made preparation for them. 40 And also their relatives, from as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, came bringing food on donkeys and on camels and on mules and on oxen, abundant provisions of flour, cakes of figs, clusters of raisins, and wine and oil, oxen and sheep, for there was joy in Israel.

How good it is when God's people join together in unity.  When everyone got on board to support David as king, the atmosphere was electric - whole hearted devotion, single-minded purpose, joyful celebration.  So often we settle for so much less - half-hearted service, schizophrenic actions, and depresssing boredom.  Not what God intends for His people.  So let's listen for what God has in mind, get on board, don't hold back, and celebrate being part of the best there is - God's plan.
