Community and solitude ... a balance

  “Let him who cannot be alone beware of community … Let him who is not in community beware of being alone… Each by itself has profound perils and pitfalls. One who wants fellowship without solitude plunges into the void of words and feelings, and the one who seeks solitude without fellowship perishes in the abyss of vanity, self-infatuation and despair.”Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Bonhoeffer's classic book, Life Together is important food for thought as Christians  seek to live a life together in the Word.


I savor time alone and with others.
 Earlier this evening, I joined other women as we discussed this
week's Bible Study.
