Lies I Believe Part 2: I Can Do It on My Own

5 ၏ ေန႔ 5

We can’t live the life Jesus asks us to without abiding in him, but we also can’t do it without each other! In the same way that we need to learn to depend on God, we need to learn to depend on other believers to strengthen our faith and encourage our sanctification. This was second nature in the collectivist culture of the early church. Nowadays, however, many of us find ourselves lacking the rich community that first-century Christians shared.

Looking across biology, sociology, and psychology, we find that both history and science show that humans fare better when they are surrounded by a good community. The same idea applies to faith. Being connected to an intentional community of Christians will keep the soil of your heart fertile for God’s work. It’s going to take more than attending church once a week; it requires “doing life” with one another and praying for, serving, and encouraging each other.

Ask Yourself: How can I generate that kind of intentional community around me? How can I invite accountability into my relationship with God? What prevents me from depending on others when it comes to living the way of Jesus?

Pause to Pray: Jesus, help me surrender control and learn to depend on you and others…

Take a Next Step: If you’re not a part of a small group or volunteer team, join one! If you don’t have an accountability partner, find one! If you do, brainstorm some ways you can be more intentional with those relationships.
