Relationships Necessary

@ Sojourn - Rick Court

What if finding God's will is all of our responsibility? Every man for himself does not work. Necessity of connection. God's will best found when in community. Part of our jobs to help each other.

Read Mark 5:25-34
There is more to story than just bleeding. She was disconnected from all meaningful relationships, separated from everyone including family. She takes a risk and weaves self into crowd to touch Jesus. People were disconnected from her, but what about those who disconnect themselves others because ___________, you can fill in the blank. Woman touches Jesus expecting change to happen. Do I show up expecting change to happen. Why would finding God's plan for our lives outside of relationship with people? Check out Clooney movie, "Up in the Air" where he tried to live life outside of relationship. Living life without being in relationship is not living life. You have to be intentional about relationships being more than casual. Left alone we will decay. Relationships grow so we can be honest with one another. We need people.
