I have seen God working out huge things through sharing secrets and struggles (through coming out of darkness) among friends, families, and even strangers. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: We are not created to deal with everything alone. We are truly "created for community". (Thanks, Gil.)
So here's my little plug for community. Fellowship is important, and not just the surface fellowship that we get at church on Sunday morning. Deep, soul connections are what Jesus had in mind. Sharpening each other. Encouraging each other. Sharing each others' joys, tears, and life! So share. Step out on a limb and share.
"But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light,
then we have fellowship with each other,
and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin."
1 John 1:7 (NLT)
