The Reminders

I read about a person who gets together with friends and calls it, "A Community of Reminders."  I like that.  We each need a community of friends who remind us of who we are, especially in our shortcomings.  We don't need a group of those who don't like us or are indifferent to us to remind us of our faults.  We need support if we are going to deal with our "stuff."  Church could be that.  It would have to be smaller than the Sunday worship gathering which is too large, no dialogue, and no chance to get to know one another.  Recovery groups have this on a daily basis.  You might find one or two people with whom you share your life on a regular basis. We all need "Reminder People," in our lives, who like us in spite of our faults.
