Not the first time I realized this but I am really an individual kind of person. I prefer to do things alone, complete stuff alone, spend time alone and can pretty much live alone (I think). Though I must say that I really treasured some the relationships I had/have. But as a redeemed sinner, I think it will be quite dumb and dense for me to hold on to this idea that I can live life as an individual for a few reasons:
- God created me to have a personal relationship with Him
- God, as the Trinue God, enjoyed the relationship with the Son and the Holy Spirit
- God saved me to a community of like-minded believers
- God called me to love others, especially fellow believers
- God can teach us many things from the community He placed us in
No doubt there is time for my self, but I guess learning to open up to others as I journey on, can be very enriching and beneficial for my growth as a believer. Come on, how many experiences can one person go through? How many answers can one have to everything that is thrown at him/her? Talking and working through with other like-minded people can make this journey so much more enjoyable and manageable.
So, gotta be less full of my self and more of others in my life!
