Synergy and Inspiration

It is truly amazing how when we come together we can accomplish so much. Why else would God confuse our language at the Tower of Babel?

I know that my inspiration often comes from the synergy developed when I am with other men and women of God who charge my batteries and ignite my vision for those things that are beyond myself.

Don’t undervalue the importance of people that fan your visionary flame whether it be through direct contact or through books, tapes, or even movies. We live such lackluster unimaginative lives.

Inspire someone else. And you yourself just may be inspired.

This came up on Todd Heistand's blog -- http://www.jerichovalley.com/weblogs/todd/ -- regarding the value of fellowship. A lot of times, we naturally want solitude when dealing with stress.

Gary Smalley says there's actually a hormone in males that drives them in this direction. I confess that I have this tendency, but I am always surprised by how my spirit is lifted by fellowship with likeminded saints.
