That is a really good description!
For myself, I feel the closest to the Lord when I'm by myself, talking to him and praying to him.
Probably the purist focus and concentration I ever attain.
I was a Catholic that had problems with the church and basically turned agnostic as a young *know it all*.
I was young and very stupid to say the least, problems with the church should not have equated to problems with the Lord.
The Lord brought me back to him, nobody else but the Lord.
Have never forgotten that fact and it kind of set my course.
Anyhow, when Christians meet to discuss things, they do help encourage, guide, and warn one another. It’s the meeting that matters. With modern technology now it can happen over internet as well as face to face.
