“God is faithful, through whom you were called into fellowship with His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:9 (NASB)
Our Bible often reminds us of the plans that God has for those He created, and what He wants to do for us. Today we have a verse with such a reminder. When Jesus was here on earth, He had some very close relationships with those whom He called to follow Him. They were together with Him day after day for three years. They walked with Him, ate with Him, and stayed where He stayed. They shared with Him in these temporal things and He also shared with them many spiritual and eternal truths. Well, isn't this a matter of true fellowship? A basic meaning of the word fellowship is that of sharing, of having things in common with each other. That is what God has called us to – a relationship where Jesus shares with us His eternal life and His eternal truth. We know the promise that God is faithful and he is calling to us each day to share our lives with him, and His life through us. That is a promise that will not be broken.
