No one wants to be alone!

We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. (1 John 1:3 NIV)

No one wants to be alone. God doesn't want to be alone. He loves spending time with us. He created us for fellowship with him and each other. We want others to join our fellowship with Christ because God treasures fellowship with us. 

I love fellowship with my Christian family. My Church, CMA family, and my coworkers who follow Christ are a very important part of my life. I don't know how someone gets through a week without having  Family of Christian brothers and sisters. They are prayer warriors. They are my accountability group. They are my "playmates". Yes, we have fun together and spend much of our time laughing.

Strange as it may seem, the creator of the universe created us to be in fellowship with him, too. We're not his equal. We're  not on the same level. He still wants to be with us. He wants to spend time with us every day. just like our Christian family here on earth, he wants to laugh with us, cry with us, and pray with us. he wants us to bring others into the fellowship. Bringing others into a relationship with Christ is a win-win. God wins because he adds another to this great fellowship. We win because we have another brother or sister to fellowship with us. The new believer gets life in eternity with his savior. 

Don't disappoint God. Fellowship with him and with others. Bring more into the family.
Lets get out their and win for God, for ourselves, and for the lost.
