My Brothers Keeper

I think sometimes we feel alone even when we are surrounded by other people. We can be in a gym filled with fans, or a church filled with believers and still feel so isolated from the person right next to us. Often we need community, brotherhood and fellow believers. At times we need those people to come to us and embrace us when we don't ask for ourselves. What a difference it can make when someone steps up and asks if they can pray for you, or a someone asks how it's going and truly means it and wants to hear the answer.

Today's song embodies the importance of looking out for those around us.

Hold us Together

By Matt Marr

It don't have a job

won't pay your bills

won't buy you a home

in Beverly Hills

Won't fix your life

in five easy steps

ani't the law of the land

or the government

But it's all you need

Love will hold us together

make us a shelter

to weather the storm

and i'll be my brother's keeper

so th whole world will know

that we're not alone

It's waiting for you

knockin' at your door

every moment of truth

when your heart hits the floor

When you're on your knees

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

Love will hold us together

make us a shelter

to weather the storm

and i'll be my brothers keeper

so the whole world will know

that we're not alone

This song is a great reminder of how important it is to look out for our spiritual brother's a sisters and to be willing to weather the storm with them. A little love toward someone goes a really long way and that can be all someone needs to make it through a tough time.

Make sure you give out some brotherly love today.
