ASSEMBLING OURSELVES TOGETHER

I recently heard this in meditation: ‘You should try to assemble yourself together before you assemble yourself together with others.’

Meditation is certainly a way that I daily choose to try and ‘assemble’ myself in front of the Lord. Some days it is simple and done quickly and some days it is difficult and I remain somewhat disassembled. But whether one is assembled, reassembled, disassembled or unassembled, it might be a good idea to find a community that could help assemble us as we assemble with them. Two or three, or a dozen, or two or three dozen. Or, with Roz.

That to me could be a clearer meaning of Hebrews 10:23-25: “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together…”

That seems like something that should not be forsaken.
