I don't know about you, but Paul sure knows how to say "HI"

3Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, 4who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, 5to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
Galatians 1

Hey everybody!

Good day,

Dear online community,

Nope..there is no better way to intro a letter then the way it is done by Paul in Galatians. Man, it just sticks with you. Grace and peace to you from God and Jesus!! I think about how informal we all get with our letters and emails, that we forget how important it is to greet each other.
How often do we pass by each other at church and say "hi, how are you?" and hope that the other person gives the, "good, and you?" response, so that we can quickly go on our way and finish what we were going to do.

We are to impersonal. Is this the community of believers, that Jesus had intended for us? Or are we to be interested about others peoples lives, so much that we tell them "Grace and Peace in God and Jesus" and actually mean it!

I want to be involved with Jesus followers that care about where I'm at as a person, and I want to care about where you are at. I want to be excited about the things that you find exciting, Cry with you when you are sad, laugh with you when you find things funny.

We are a body, right? lets start living like we are actually attached!

Grace and Peace to you all!
