When God created the world and everything in it, it was all excellent… except for one thing. The writer of Genesis notes: "It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him" (Gen. 2:18). A pet dog would not suffice; a favorite cat wasn't enough. For that matter, God recognized that even having a loving God nearby would not give Adam what he needed in Eve. We were created by a loving God for loving relationships. It started at Creation and will continue beyond the end of the world as we know it.

"That which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ." – 1 John 1:3 (English Standard Version)

"Father God, I'm learning more about the priority you put on relationships. I can see the importance of fellowship, genuine care, and honest communication with my family, my friends, brothers, and sisters in Christ. Help me to show them my sincerity and your love more effectively. In Jesus’ name, Amen."
