“And
let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not
giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging
one another -- and all the more as you see the Day approaching.” (Hebrews 10:24-25 NIV)
Within
the body of Christ we need to be intentional about the seeds we sow, about how
our behavior with friends should be preparing us for service out in the world.
We need each other to draw us out of our self-centeredness. We need others to
hold us accountable, to be like a mirror to help us see our lives and our doing
of our faith more clearly. We need each other for mutual encouragement, to push
further into serving the world than we might if left alone.
-- James C. Howell in “Your Are
the Hands of Christ”
