For where two or three meet in my name, I shall be there with them.
Mt.18:20
Intimacy among believers invites intimacy with Jesus.
Jesus loves the Church. He desires that we meet and promises his intimate presence when we gather. Does this mean Jesus is not with me when I'm praying alone? Of course not. It's just that he enters in a special way when two or more are gathered in his name.
I am reminded of Psalm 133. "How sweet and pleasant it is when the brothers come together in unity... for it is there the Lord commands a blessing."
Jesus, thank you for Church. Thank you for your promise of presence when we gather.
