Built for each other

I have been noticeably absent or so a close friend told me the other day. I am sorry for that. Life has intruded. Not in a terrifying way, but in an “it’s too busy to collect my thoughts” kind of way. I am doing well, as is my family.

Having others check-in on us is such a gift. We all have a few people in our lives who keep an eye open for how we are doing and send a note or call when they are concerned. This is God’s work.

Community is hard to build in our crazy technocentric world. But it is so important. We are humans and it has never been good for us to be alone. God looked at Adam and decided he needed companionship and community. This is our foundation. This is one of the most important elements of humanity.

As we start to move our way out of the past years crazy isolation and fear start with community. Make time for each other. It matters.

Genesis 2:18 The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone.
I will make a helper suitable for him.”
