Romans 15:5 May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus,
We are all in this together, in basic terms. Finding unity in a broken world with broken ideas and broken people is not a simple task. That is why Paul makes his statement here, that a spirit of unity comes from God. Every good and perfect gift comes from above. I forget that sometimes. All of the good things I have, experience, know, they are all from God. I don't do a great job of thanking Him for all of them, but they are all from God. When I seek something good in the world, when I'm looking for particular positive thing to occur, I must seek God for He is the good I am seeking. Seek God and unity will happen.
