Life and well-being

^"Know, then, that I have sent this command to you, so that my covenant with Levi may hold, says the Lord of hosts. My covenant with him was a covenant of life and well-being, which I gave him; this called for reverence, and he revered me and stood in awe of my name" - Malachi 2:4-5 

The phrase that stood out for me (from these 2 verses) was this one: 

"a covenant of life and well being"

It was the Lord who gave Levi this amazing covenant and God's deepest hope was that this would bring LIFE and WELL-BEING to Levi.

As we seek to revere the Christ-child this Advent, let us remember that God's covenant of Love has always sought to bring the best to us. God is indeed good.
