Belonging

Gen 2:18  And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help meet for him.

God created man with the desire to have relationships. We all long to be connected and belonged. It is not good for people to live in isolation in a world of being alone. As a body of Christ, we need each other. We need the personal relationship with Christ and the fellowship of other believers. Even tho we sometimes walk in the valley of loneliness, He has promised to be there with us. It is not God’s plan that we go through life alone, fellowship and belonging are critical to our social and spiritual well being. There are some things in life that we must bare alone with Christ, but we should never forsake the fellowship of others and walk alone.
