God has formed us to be together, many distinct people in unity as one body, in order to best reflect what He is like. Most of creation has been designed this way, to be connected together. Yet, sin has broken us apart and created a desire for individualism. Jesus has come to reunite us as his body, bringing us together with one another and together with God once again.
We took a few minutes at the start of the year to talk about how we will strive to be formed this year by God. More importantly, we spent a few minutes in prayer for God to form us. Specifically, we prayed for:
1) Our family to grow in size
2) Our family to grow in maturity
3) Our family to grow in love
