There are some people who go out of their way to help others; sometimes they even sacrifice their own safety and security to do so.
You know them, they are:
- The neighbor who helps you move into a new house.
- A co-worker that takes a long drive with you, just to keep you company.
- An acquaintance that volunteers to help you with a project.
- The friend that listens as you vent your frustrations.
All of these are examples of those who go out of their way to help us, with no requirement that we do the same.
Many people help us because we are quick to help others. the Bible says anyone who wants friends, must show themselves friendly. That also means if you don't help others, don't complain when people leave you to fend for yourself, by yourself.
Difficulties are easier when we have someone to help us, or even to listen to us complain as we cry on their shoulders
It’s tough when you have to face your challenge alone.
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 says, "Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.
It is good to have friends, but it is even better to know that our Lord will never leave us alone; he's the best friend we can ever have.
He’s always by our side.
