Acts 2:42 "And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and of prayers."
I have stared my entry back into the world. I have been working in the office since August 2020, but I have not socialized much at all during Covid. Actually, all of fellowship times, which were few and far between, were outdoors. Then on February 11th I went to a dear friend's house to spend time with part of my tribe. Then the following Friday, I had a dear friend over with her pup. Yesterday we had a young couple and their sweet pup in for a play date. Tonight, not only did we have people over, but we shared a meal with them as well. We sat with two lovely couples and shared stories and laughed. It was such a wonderful time of fellowship. All of these gatherings have been a balm to my soul and have lifted me up so dramatically. The Bible says in Hebrews that we should not forsake gathering together. We need each other and this time of being apart has been too prolonged.
So, even with OCD I took the plunge back into life and trusting God to bless each gathering. Will I get Covis> Maybe. Have I wasted a lot of time trying not to, I believe I have. I cannot be a disciple of Jesus in a vacuum. He calls me to be strong and courageous, and because of Him I can be. To God be the glory.

AMEN!!!! I am so happy for you and I hope this reentry will help to soothe your soul even more. We cannot live in a proverbial bubble anymore. You are 100% right - how long have you missed fellowship vs. how long you have tried to not get Covid. We have to simply find the balance to help us live the life that Jesus wanted for us. He did not want solitary lives for us - he wanted us in communion with Him and others.
I am so proud of you Lehann!!!
