Sometimes
I find interesting the "little" things God says, almost
slips in at points in the Bible, about humans. "It is not good
for man to be alone". It's almost as if God designed us or
something. Seriously, it's common to think of this verse in terms of
marriage, but God did not limit His comment to marriage. God designed
humans to be social in general - spouses, families, friends,
communities. Thus the "rugged individual" image of a man or
a woman I a bit off center. Individuals are responsible for their
actions or lack of action (lack of initiative). But it is a
distortion of God's design for a man or woman to isolate themselves
from others. In plainer terms, it is unhealthy
for
a man or woman to so isolate themselves, and that is the fuller
meaning of what God said. Maybe, just maybe, the Creator of humans
knows something about those He designed!
