Fellowshipping ~ There's Nothing like it!!

Wow!!!! It's been about a week since my last post. But it was for a great reason.....fellowship. This past weekend was my church's 23rd anniversary. With that being said, my church choir was scheduled to sing for all three services. So, we had to spend time together because of choir practice. Then, we came back together to sing for our 23rd anniversary. Because of that, we came together in praise and worship two days in row!! (Loved it!!!) And it is something when you can fellowship and get connected with your brothers and sisters in Christ without any hidden agendas, but simply for the love of our Lord and Savior!!

I love singing on the choir. It's a perfect opportunity to spend time with each other and catch up. Whereas under normal circumstances, we only have a enough time just to say, "Hi!" and "Bye!". Part of my church's motto is "Doing Life Together." And that's what fellowship is all about..."Doing Life Together."

The Greek word for fellowship is koinonia (koy-nohn-ee-ah). It means sharing, unity, close association, partnership, participation, a society, a communion, contributory, the brotherhood (the sisterhood). I love the idea of fellowship means unity and a brother/sisterhood. That's exactly what is....being brothers and sisters in Christ (joint heirs to God's Kingdom)...a family.

Everytime we get together at my church, it's feel like a big family reunion...without the electric slide (LOL!). Fellowshipping is an important part of growing as a person of the Spirit. We cannot forsake assembling of ourselves together (Hebrews 10:25). In true fellowship, you can see the manifestation of Christ's love, especially if we are gathering together in His Name and in works of love.


So, if you're not connected.....Get connected!! You have nothing to lose, but everything to gain...and that is.....a great family (if they are anything like my church family.)
