I need another day—”one day more”—to pull my thoughts together on THE key passage in Revelation, so look for my post on all of Revelation 11 Tuesday AM.
In the meantime, enjoy this fun version of “One Day More” performed by the cast of the Les Miserables movie as they rehearse for a performance at the Oscars.
P.S. I know that it’s also only one day more until Election Day, but that wasn’t what I was thinking when I wrote this post!

Psalm 133 is about the beauty of unity among God’s people.
133 Behold, how good and pleasant it is
when brothers dwell in unity!
2 It is like the precious oil on the head,
running down on the beard,
on the beard of Aaron,
running down on the collar of his robes!
3 It is like the dew of Hermon,
which falls on the mountains of Zion!
For there the Lord has commanded the blessing,
life forevermore.
Unity among God’s people, says the psalmist, is like luxuriant oil on the head (in the ancient world, it was a good thing and a sign of prosperity to be anointed with oil). It’s like the life-giving dew that gathers on Mount Hermon, north of the sea of Galilee, and gives water to Israel.
Brothers and sisters, let us not let this coming presidential election divide us!
Pray for friends who support the other party.
Pray for the candidates by name.
Avoid social media as much as possible—it will just get you riled up.
Remember:
13 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
In other words, loving the people who are wrong is more important than being right!
