How beautiful it is to live in community!! It is such a blessing because you know that whatever happens you always have someone to rejoice with when things go well and someone to help hold you up when the times are tough. It is an incredible thing to watch on Friday's and Saturday's as we each move closer to living within this community that is being build around us. This past week there were so many of us that took time to share our highs and lows with each other while we made the PB & J's. There were a handful of new people that touched us with their stories of how they got here and how they wanted to be part of what was being built!
Community is a circle not a vertical line. So many hands went out to pull others in this week... to play a part in it... that it was felt by most of us... and it was Awesome!
When people choose to love, choose to think about others and care for others, even those they may have never actually met, it is a beautiful thing. That is what community is all about…caring for one another and helping one another out, in spite of where each one of us is!
Jesus Himself said that we would be known by our love. What a great way to be known.
