The Importance Of A Church Family

Why you need these awesome supporters in your spiritual life

The Importance Of A Church Family
Medium

Oh, the importance of having a church family.

I believe that the Christians you keep in your circle contribute to your commitment to God. Of course, it is possible to have a relationship with God and not with anyone who does as well, but it is so very difficult to keep yourself on track.

Like I said above, a church family contributes to your commitment to God. That statement is very real. When you are falling in your walk with christ and you are feeling hopeless, these key people lift you and encourage you. Your faithful companions can help you when you are feeling doubt in your faith.

I have experienced this firsthand.

In the few bible studies I have taken part of, and our Wednesday night groups, I have created incredible bonds with people. Some, we have barely scratched the surface of friendship and I know certain people would risk their life for me. People have proven to have my back and support me through all my ups and downs. There are people that don't know God that can be this true and genuine but it is rare. It is the true and pure joy of knowing our Creator and Savior.

Not only is a church family genuine and supportive, we share the bond of having a deep relationship with our Heavenly Father. What precious connections and conversations you can have with a group of people that share in your true faith with you.

This is so vital and special and I highly encourage anyone who does not have a church family to connect with me.

Reach out to me.

I have open arms in likeness with our incredible Father.

A church family is so important.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
