Unity

In keeping with the theme of the week here is a poem about unity..

We depend upon each other, each one in

his own small way -  giving something

of himself in terms of service day by day –

working for his own reward yet adding to the

common good.  Half our troubles would be

ended if this truth were understood.

We are bound by unseen cords and every-

thing we say and do – tends to help or harm

another. Let us try then to pursue – nothing

that would cause division, hate, unrest or

jealousy. Put no strain upon the ties of fellowship and unity.

All our lives are interwoven. On each other

we rely. Brain and brawn must work together,

letting ancient grudges die. At the desk and

at the plough, in mine and mill and factory.

All are needed in the drive for peace and for prosperity.
