Christian Fellowship 

   We live in a world that seems intent on destroying its soul; a world that prefers evil to good and rejects anything remotely connected to God.  In such a world there are few things more important than the fellowship and support of other who also believe.

   The first Christians separated themselves from most of the world at large.  They formed communities devoted to Christ and to the well-being of His believers.  In our world today we also need to separate ourselves from the ways of the world, to live as a people apart, devoted to God.  To support each other in our faith.

   I am blessed to have a group of fellow believers, true friends who support each other and care deeply for each other.  We get together on a regular basis for meals and fellowship.  Sometimes we spend hours talking about the Lord and all He has done for us.  Our faith grows and deepens as we share our faith with one another.

   We are sorrowful for the state of the world, the evil that seems to be more and more the norm in society.  But we recognize that only God can change the world and our help is best offered in sincere prayers for a growth of faith in the world.  Jesus promised, "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." (Matt 18: 20).  God always hears the prayers of those who love Him.

   The world has never been a friend of God, it has always rebelled and rebuked Him and His truths.  I have no doubt that it will not change until Christ comes again in glory.  In the meantime, I’ll continue to treasure the friendship of my fellow Christians and we will continue to pray that the Holy Spirit may touch many hearts and bring them to God.
