Merry Christmas!

Dear Unity Family,

“ Yet he has made an everlasting covenant with me.”

2 Samuel 23:5


I wonder if author fathomed what he meant when he wrote this verse. It is certainly prophetic. When Jesus arrived in a stable and went to the cross, he manifested that everlasting covenantal promise.

Everlasting is an amazing word. It goes beyond our finite sense of time. It makes the uncomfortable parts of life fade like a mist.

I remember learning about covenants in 7th grade Bible class. When God made his covenants he did so, knowing we had no way of upholding our end of the deal.

That makes the stable and the cross even more amazing.

Rejoice with me. We serve a God who is faithful in His covenant promises, and eternally everlasting. And we are invited to live and fellowship with Him!

Merry Christmas,

Wayne Dykstra
