Two are better then One

"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work; if one falls down, his friends can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!" Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

Climbing a steep hill, I was pleased to meet a friend who stopped for a while to talk. Not only was the conversation good, but it also gave me a chance to rest before continuing the hard climb.

The road of life is sometimes steep too. It is a beautiful thing to have friends to encourage me by stopping to talk. It is also beautiful when I can provide a rest stop and brighten someone else's climb.

Direct me, O great encourager, in paths that cross with other', so we may refresh each other. Amen.
