     God calls us to be the Church, the Body of Christ. We cannot be obedient to God in this command unless we reach out to
our brothers and sisters in Christ. Many of our relationships begin when we share our light in Christ with those who have been
in darkness and who we help to come out of darkness into the light. Other relationships will come when we put on our spiritual
roles in the Body of Christ. These relationships can only grow and be what Jesus Christ wants them to be when we fellowship.
   We are directed to never forsake growing in fellowship in the Body of Christ. Remember, in the world the focus is on division.
In the Church, the focus is on unity and growing relationships. This must be fulfilled even in hostile environments.
