Have you ever been surrounded by people, but still somehow felt totally alone? The presence of others doesn’t always mean the absence of loneliness. But for believers in Jesus, that’s where fellowship steps in! When we truly spend time building relationships with others, we’re living in true fellowship. And as this verse shows us, it comes as the result of living in the light with God. It doesn’t matter if you’re quiet or loud, shy or outgoing, love big groups or small groups, you can find fellowship and unity with others when you’re connected by the love of God. This week, pray that God would give you opportunities to get to know and connect with others who believe in Him.

Live in Harmony With Each Other

Can you imagine listening to a song that only used one note? Just the same sound over and over and over again. That would be terrible, right? Music sounds better when it’s played as combination of different notes that all fit together to make one beautiful sound. That’s called harmony, and it’s something we can find in our own lives, as well. Harmony isn’t about everyone looking or acting the same. It’s actually about different parts of the body of Christ coming together to make something greater. The Bible calls us to live in harmony with each other, and that means working together to make something great in spite of our differences. Think about how you respond to people who are different from you. How can you begin to embrace their differences and live in harmony with them?

Thinking only about yourself is easy to do. After all, you’re the person you spend the most time with every single day! But this verse reminds us that we need to remember to think of others, too. Taking an interest in someone means to give them the same kind of concern that you give to yourself. If we all thought about how others feel or what others need in addition to our own needs, we would see better relationships, better communities, and a better world. This week, find one thing you can do to go out of your way to put the needs of someone else in your life before your own.

Have you ever put something together with glue? If you have, then you know that the only job of glue is to hold things together. Though you may not see the glue on the finished product, you know it’s there because it’s power is keeping the piece together. In the same way, the Holy Spirit is the glue that holds believers in Jesus together. It’s His power that keeps us united and strong as a body of believers. Though we cannot see Him, we know He’s always at work to keep us working together for God’s glory. Pray this week that the Holy Spirit would serve as the glue to strengthen and unite your fellow youth group friends so that you can make a big impact on this world together.
