Movement By Myself (Part 1)


So often in Christian circles, you hear folks say things like "all I need is God. I don't need anybody else."

Moreover, so often when folks get in trouble, they isolate themselves and try to will themselves out of their situation.

But God didn't create us to live in isolation. In fact, God says that we make each other better (Proverbs 27:17).  He tells us that iron sharpens iron. Moreover, that we are designed to operate like a body (1 Corinthians 12:12). There are many members but we all operate in conjunction with each other (1 Corinthians 12:12-27).

In fact, Paul tells us not to forsake assembling together (Hebrews 10:24-25). Why? He knows that there's power in numbers.

Don't retreat into isolation. Your strength is found in community.

God bless,
J.W.
