In Good Company.

When you are around other brothers and sisters who love Christ, you cannot help but be overjoyed and encouraged by them.

It is almost as if, by nature, they are a great encouragement to you. By conversing with them, saying hi to them, and having a natural conversation seems to lift your spirits. And they don't even have to say anything specific. It is almost as if there is this "unspoken" word of encouragement through a believers tone that sympathetically tells you "Yes brother, I really understand, you're not in this race alone." And this happens just by telling someone how your day was!

How wonderful it is to be surrounded by such people as these, especially in times of DIScouragement! It doesn't get any better than that! God, in His Sovereignty, has placed these people in my life to help with heavy load by bearing my burdens (Gal. 6:2) and point me back to the truth when I go off course. And if you have not experienced a fellowship like this, then you NEED to. This is a must!

In the business of life, it's so easy for us to forget about the many others who are there to help and pray for us. These people care because you are a fellow believer in Christ. Not only are you a believer, but you are God's adopted child, and we are a part of the same family. And family looks out for each other.

Thanks guys for the help, I will do the same for you, because you are my family.

Much love.
