What do you do when you've found true community, only to have to leave it soon? A community which loves you and wraps their arms around you when you need it the most, and are so willing to lift you up....
but then you have to leave. Exit stage right. Just when things start getting good, and you have to go. What do you do?
I'll only be gone for 5 months. But then I'll be back in similar, but not the same, community (kinda like you can't step in the same river twice...) And I will be changed.
What if things aren't the same? I mean, they'll never be the same as they were tonight. laying on of hands is powerful. and i realized tonight how much these friends that i have made, whether recent or over the past year and a half, have influenced me and been a huge part of my life.
so, I have a true, pure, holy, loving community. How do I sustain that? Or does it have to break down to build up again?
I don't like that second idea....
