It makes us part of God's family. Time and distance and sadly, sometimes, differences of opinion and even death may separate us from our mother, father, sister or brother. in those times, I am thankful that we still have our church family. It is amazing that no matter where we are whether at work, school, in a new town when we find a Christian, there is an unseen connection. Suddenly, the world can seem less hostile and cold. This person that you just met is your brother or sister in Christ. I am grateful for the gaps that they fill in our lives. We can share hugs and hurts. We strengthen each other when we feel weak.
