Don't Forsake the Fellowship

I just came home from a Men's Meeting.  It was great.  I was the speaker tonight, but the part that was great was the interaction with and from everyone.

If you are ever in a group of believers, who all want to hear God and know Him, who are all talking about God, listen closely to what they are all saying.  Most of the time, when I do this, I can see (hear) the common thread and I see how God is using different people's personalities and sensitivities to address an idea in a much more "three dimensional" way than could probably be done by a single speaker.

This is one more reason why we are supposed to fellowship with other believers.

If five people stand at different places on or near a mountain, and each is asked to describe the mountain, you will get five completely different descriptions.  If you ask them at the same time in the same room, you may start an argument about what the mountain is really like.

But.

If you listen to them all, assuming that they really are talking about the same mountain, you will get a more detailed image of the thing than you could get other wise.  One person can only see so much without help.

If this is true about a mountain. . . . How much bigger IS God anyway?  :)

Just a thought.

Blessings!
