Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German pastor martyred by Hitlet, wrote " Let him who cannot be alone beware of community."

This saying points us to the balance that must exist in healthy relationships with our fellow brothers and sisters. Togetherness and apartness. Some seek community because they cannot bear to be alone. Time in community strengthens us for our time alone. Time alone strengthens us for the time we spend in our community.

everything else fades away...when u focus on Jesus.
