is that we connect in community with each other- building relationships
so we can give AND receive care when needed!
Mark 2:1-12 the story of the lame man whose friends carried him on his stretcher up to the roof of a house and dug and hole and lowered him through to see Jesus.
when we are in the presence of Jesus, something cool is going to happen.
- who am I getting to the roof?
- who is pushing me toward the roof?
when we are connected to community with other we don't have to do life alone.
Daniel in the Bible, him and his friends (Shadrack, Meshack, and Abednego) all wouldn't bow to the idol of king Nebuchadnezar, so they were thrown in the furnace, and they were all walking around in the middle of it and didn't get hurt.
Daniel 3:19-29
who is with you in life?
who are you surrounding yourself with?
who are you doing that for?
Read Proverbs 18 about isolation.
connecting to community fulfills God's calling.
we are not meant to be alone, we are to live and grow together.
John 13:34-35
1 Corinthians 12:12-14
if what you're doing isn't working, you need to change what you're doing.
