Life

Don't you just love this pic? You almost don't want to tell him that as an adult, you'll want to sit on the floor (insert personal clothing preference here) with your hand on your head and consider "what in the world."

Our church has just revamped our home groups and Sunday night scheduling in an effort to foster greater emphasis on "doing life together."

As our senior pastor and his wife iterated last night, "we all need relationship." There are countless stories in the groups of strangers becoming friends, acquaintances becoming best friends and friends becoming family.

And since everyone needs relationships, how do we grow and invite others to share in community and experience life with greater enjoyment, increased fulfillment, clarity of purpose and depth of belonging. It starts with open hearts, open eyes and praying for divine appointments.

On this #communitySaturday, pray that God would present to us, divine appointments. Pray for open and understanding hearts, ready and able to reach out to those in need of a friend. Pray for a strengthening of relationships, that they would grow and develop, as Scripture describes "iron sharpening iron. As God created man for relationship unto himself, God also understood it was not good for man to be alone on this earth. Pray for the truth of needing relationships with each other to come alive and that as we grow in community, people will experience life together, and with Christ, life more abundantly.

For the glory of God. For the cause of Christ.
