We can not do this alone (Lent 1, Tuesday)


For thousands of years we have gathered in circle - around fires, around bodies, around alters - because we can't do this alone. 
~W. Muller

We meet together week in and week out. We struggle with one another. We bear with one another. We open our spirits to extend grace to one another again and again and again. The community of the people of God is a broken community. (We always have been) But, we are made holy because the Spirit of God is among us. We are made new when we give ourselves to each other...because we were never meant to be alone.
