The LORD God then built the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman. When he brought her to the man the man said: “This one, at last, is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh.”
Genesis 2:22-23

Adam now understands what he has been missing. He realizes that he needs a companion and experiences a deep feeling of relief as this yearning in his soul is met. He feels an exuberance once he has this relationship. He comes alive in a new and dynamic way.

God wants to put people around you who can give you the wisdom you lack. He wants to put people around you to help you shoulder your burdens and share your joys. Human beings have a deep need for connection.  The first level of connection is learning to share. Whether that is sharing conversations about faith, or what is going on in our lives and hearing from others, the sharing has tremendous power. When you share a joy, it is doubled and when you share your struggles, they are cut in half. 

Ask Jesus to help you overcome your fear and help you join a community or start a new relationship. Perhaps you can seek out opportunities to gather with other followers of Jesus.  If you have not done so already, consider joining a small group at Resurrection Parish.
