1 Corinthians 1:9
God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
The Greek word for "fellowship" here is koinōnia, which means share in, fellowship with, participation.
It’s that word "participation" that jumped out to me.
There’s something childlike and approachable about it, something I could immediately grab hold of.
I prayed a quick prayer:
"May I participate with You today?"
Around the same time, I had been reading about Anne Sullivan and Helen Keller. I’ll share part of their story here.
It’s such an inspiring picture of fellowship and participation — and I couldn’t help but see the connection to our life with Jesus.
