I keep getting so wrapped up in the busy-ness of life that I'm shocked when I realize how much time has lapsed since I spent any real time with the Lord. And yet that is time that, when I take it, is precious to me.Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07070548227500271897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8111127470910268088.post-14218259055835873962009-08-14T21:35:25.408-04:002009-08-14T21:35:25.408-04:00My,my. . .so much to ponder here, Lynn!

It's actually been missing for a long time, but with the busy-ness of life the quieter more unobtrusive things always seem to get neglected and ignored. I know that I need more fellowship with Him and with the body of Christ. . .but how to make this craziness slow down long enough to just do it?Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18195790026210772222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8111127470910268088.post-86267840701495991272009-08-11T10:53:13.430-04:002009-08-11T10:53:13.430-04:00Lynn, this is so good. Just all of it. You first...Lynn, this is so good. Just all of it. You first struck a chord with me when once again the scripture Eph 3:20 was put before me. That scripture holds a special place because that is exactly what He did in joining me and my beloved together. And while we are no longer together, I'm still believing in Him to do the Almighty and the impossible more than I can imagine in restoring us. <br /><br />I've heard often about wearing a rubber band as a reminder to pray or to confess or just whatever need it is. <br /><br />When I think of fellowship, I typically think of it in terms of other Christian believers/friends. When I first read this I thought of how I'm missing deep fellowships with deep friends...more than sharing just the goings ons of life but the heart of life and struggles. Then, as you wrote, I realized you were talking of fellowship with God. You are so right on about how that rubber band slipped off your hand without knowing it and our time/fellowship with God can slip away from us. <br /><br />Wonderful post I will continue to ponder.<br />Love,<br />PaulaPaula Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13948349907036852384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8111127470910268088.post-50407413691543697372009-08-08T14:34:07.345-04:002009-08-08T14:34:07.345-04:00Lynn,

I too was guilty of the very same thing, and even got to the point of avoiding people that weren't like me, the outcasts I like to call them, they didn't fit into my click of people I wanted to be seen with. <br /><br />That's when God stepped in and showed me that He didn't come here to be seen with anyone less than the unworthy, he came to save the lost, not the ones that were doing ok. The ones that didn't need to be judged anymore, but simply accepted and loved for who they were. <br /><br />That is how much my life has changed is in seeing those that were lost and in need of direction, could change so much it would change you completely forever and I believe that fellowship is like that. <br /><br />It is learning to sit down with someone and really get to know them, to listen to them when they talk, and to forget about what others will think if they see you. <br /><br />It's just being with them in that very moment. <br /><br />Love and Hugs ~ KatHeart2Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05240536955573366802noreply@blogger.com
