A Nice Reunion

I got to spend a nice week in San Luis Obispo with some friends and it turned out to be a nice little reunion of our time in Puerto Rico last summer. It's crazy how even a few days can be so rejuvenating to my heart and soul. Being in proximity with these people fills me with joy, not only because of who they are, but how much they strive to follow Christ. Their presence are infectious, since they challenge me and make me want to continue to grow in my own faith.

They help show me what beautiful potential there is if you have a Christ-centered community. They show me how to love others well.There can be laughter, excitement, vulnerability, growth, and immense joy. I can sleep on their couch, they can drop wisdom, or simply make me laugh. Unfortunately, some of these folks I don't get to see too often now (which makes me sad), but it is great being to live life with them once more and I am thankful to call them my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Now as I am back at home I am excited to continue in my disciplines so the growth and joy can continue. Also, I'm excited for my friends in Puerto Rico as they wrap up their last week. Let the Lord bless them and keep them in these final days on the island.

All the glory to Him.

"And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near" - Hebrews 10:24-25
