It seems that all living things live in community because they
thrive in community. Christian
community, at work, in your neighborhood or in a collection of committed people
together, is a rare gift. It moves
forward in our love for God and is held together by trust in its members. This community is not a right or a
certainty. If the community looses its
focus on God or is deprived of its trust in one another the underlying miracle
of community can be lost. We may still
be in proximity to one another but the treasure of community is no longer in
our possession.
