"But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ makes us clean from all sin." 1 John 1:7

fellowship
It's funny, this fellowship thing. I was just talking the other day to a really good friend of mine that I don't get to see as much as I'd like to. I can remember that we used to be really close and then her life changed. She got married and I thought that that meant no more relationship. I remember thinking that everything was going to HAVE to be different. It was like I finally came to the understanding, two months after her being married, that she wanted fellowship with me just as much as I did with her. I just love the way God works because the time I didn't have with her, God showed me so much about relationship and then brought us back together and she has basically, over the past month, regurgitated what God had shown me. I absolutely love her and am so glad she is who she is today. Yeah, her last named changed and she can't do everything I want her to anymore - but it's not about me. That's the beauty of it, loving each other through EVERYTHING. Just because there's a change in the relationship doesn't mean that there has to be a lack of fellowship. Just calling each other. I'm telling you, it's the only thing that I hate about church in the house is the lack of fellowship with certain people. But then again it shows me that it's my responsibility to do my part. No, I don't get my "weekly fix" of those people. I have to take the initiative to do that. Ok, I should stop now, I know this is probally confusing you. I just know exactly what the fellowship thing is all about, and I know what He's done in me. I can't tell you enough how God really is faithful and steadfast. Ok, I must stop before I confuse you anymore.

you didn't confuse me. I know exactly what you're talking about. And thank you for saying better than I ever could.
Okay now I'm officially going to feel like a copycat.. I read BJ's blog and thought that I might write something about fellowship.. now I read yours, and I want to do it even more. Or maybe I'll just collaborate my comments on ya'lls blogs.
You're not confusing me! But that's only because we've already had this conversation.. haha.. I would say more.. but I'm just going to blog it..
yeah bekah- i know you're a copy cat. And it's good that you blog it since how you NEVER update your blog anymore. And don't give me the line "I have a life and other things to do" so do we! No, I'm just joking with you.
And Bj- I do think that you could actually put it better than I did but we can leave it like it is...:D
