When 1 Falls Down

Hurricane Irma blew downwards an eighty-foot pino inwards our front end yard. 

Were it non for simply about other large pino blocking its path, we’d convey lost purpose of our roof. 

I couldn’t assist thinking of Ecclesiastes 4:9-10: “Two are meliorate than one, because they convey a expert provide for their labor: If either of them falls down, 1 tin assist the other up.” 

In the end, the fallen tree had to locomote cutting upwards in addition to removed, but godly friends inwards our lives non alone block us from paths of destruction, they elevator us upwards when nosotros autumn in addition to restore us to an upright lay inwards Christ. 

Unfortunately, we’re oftentimes afraid to “push against” a falling blood brother for fright of beingness rejected or called judgmental. And we’re oftentimes resistant to those who endeavor to choke on us from falling. 

What tin nosotros do? Pray for good, honest friends in addition to pray to locomote a good, honest friend (Galatians 6:1). Pray that nosotros volition locomote unafraid to give in addition to have Biblical correction (Proverbs 19:20).
