Absorb Indivisibility

In my dream I was watching a young couple (unknown to me) holding hands.

As I awoke, I somehow heard,
Absorb indivisibility.
Couples work hard to grow together, absorbing each other's hurts and fears, encouraging and cheering on the other, plowing through decision-making and steps forward with shared hands. Is this the way we absorb indivisibility?

I had read a devotion that used Psalm 138:3 as its inspiration:
As soon as I pray, you answer me; you encourage me by giving me strength.
I was struck by the idea that a means of God's encouragement is to give us strength.

When we encourage each other, we are giving each other strength.

Friends, spouses, colleagues--we all somehow reside in circles of others who need our encouragement.

God and I are a twosome as well. We have a relationship, and as I pray and He answers me, He encourages me by giving me strength.

Together, step-by-step, day-by-day, our relationship absorbs indivisibility.

Stunning.
