We live in a culture of isolation – a culture of self-dependence and narcissistic focus on self-aggrandizement. Social media has invaded our lives amassing followers globally in all sectors of society – more people in the world own a cell phone than own a toothbrush. But for all of our “friends” and “connectivity” people are more lonely and isolated than ever before. We are connected but alone. Real relationships are falling by the wayside to our veneer, event-based postings. We have lost our way.
God has promised to never leave us. We were created to live in relationship both with God and each other. It’s time to recalibrate our lives according to the relational dynamic of God’s intent.
