Seeking Christian
Fellowship.
You may or may not presently be involved in a local
church fellowship. During separation it is particularly important that you
find other Christians with whom you can fellowship. It is true that the
church can be justly criticized. How often we hear people say, "I
don't want to attend that church because it's filled with
hypocrites." That is likely true. Hypocrites and sinners regularly
attend most churches, but without hypocrites and sinners, who would be
left to attend? For we have all sinned, and we are all sometimes
hypocritical. Attending church does not mean that we are perfect. It means
that we are seeking growth.
In most Christian churches, you are likely to find
friendly people who will welcome you and who will seek to help you. We
were not meant to live alone. The psalmist said, "God makes a home
for the lonely" (Psalm 68:6). During these days when you are
separated from your spouse, you desperately need the fellowship of the
larger family of God. Reach out this Sunday. Don't only attend worship,
but look for a small group with whom you can identify.
