Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up.
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 NKJV
Morning Men of God,
We carry alot of responsibility as husbands and fathers. Men make friends alot slower than women. We are slow to open up and share our concerns, fears or insecurities. That is why it is very important that we encourage each other. We know what our brothers are going through without them even saying it, because we are going through it too. The bond of Godly Brotherhood is very important. The text from Ecclesiastes this morning shows us that having someone to walk with you in encouragement and support is helpful. Being alone and blocked off makes you easy prey for satan. Having a Godly brotherhood helps you to stand even on days when you can't feel your legs. I encourage you today to go out of your way to call, email, or text a word of encouragement to a brother in your spiritual circle. Ask him how you can pray for him and his family this week. Offer yourself as that encouraging support that God can use to ease your brother's roughest days.
Love you Guys,
Patrick
