“Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. [10] If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble.”
Ecclesiastes 4:9-11 NLT
God created people with a gift for and a need for companionship. Friendship is one of the most beautiful experiences life has to offer, especially when we are going through tough times or struggles.
Friends make work easier and more fun. Friends make it easier to get back up when we get knocked down. Friends listen to us and teach us about life. And friends provide us with company and companionship.
Folks, God designed us to support, encourage and lift up one another. When we are feeling troubled or alone, God wants us to reach out to our friends for companionship. And when we know of someone who is going through a difficult time, God wants us to reach out to that person and offer our friendship. We can show our love for God by loving one another.
