Behold How Good and How Pleasant It Is...
For brethren to dwell together in unity! DO you remember that old song? I was thinking about it today. It is an old song set to Jewish style music. When I was a kid and singing it people would get excited and clap in beat together.
That is how it feels when we fellowship or "hang out" with our family from The Bridge! Last night I taught the kids and to hear the kids run up to one another and pat them on the back or get excited and hug each other it! I love to hear their laughter and excitement to see each other. That is how it should be whenever it is time to gather! Unity! You don't have to be someone's best friend to support one another. Sometimes it is just a prayer said or an encouraging word that will minister to a person. Sometimes it can be a smile and wave from across the room, or a hug of comfort and to shed a few tears together. But there is just something special when brothers and sisters in Christ dwell together in unity!
You are an important member of the body of Christ. Do not entertain the thought that people won't miss you! You have a place. Not only will you miss out on fellowship but you might miss an opportunity to minister to a person who NEEDS you!
So resist the urge to sit home. Get up off the couch and go. We need each other. And to meet together to worship the King...there is nothing better :)
Expecting to see you soon!
