God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus. (Philippians 1:8 NIV)
How much do you love your church? Small group? Bible Study? Christian friends?
I have been a member of our Church Choir on several different occasions. I thoroughly enjoy this strong group of followers. I miss being with them. On Sunday mornings when I hear them perform I am envious of their special worship. But, God has led me a different way. I also long to be out interacting with local motorcyclists. I am passionate about riding and feel so blessed to have a great group of friends who share that same passion. So, even though I miss Choir, I love the ministry God has given me. A lot of that has to do with the people I serve with.
God can testify how I enjoy the fellowship of my CMA chapter. He knows our joys with each other, he knows our struggles and he knows the special bond we share. I think this is what this verse says, "if you're not connected with great Christian people, you can't feel the complete love of Jesus Christ. Praise God for my fellow Christians!
