"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." Helen Keller
Who are the people in your life you rely on the most? Your family, your kids, your spouse, your closest friends? When life feels exhausting and overwhelming, who is it that brings you dinner or calls to check on you? When you celebrate life's biggest moments, who is there cheering you on?
We were never made to be alone. God created us so that we could love Him and He could love us. And when he created Adam, he knew that, "It is not good for man to be alone." (Gen 1:18) God blesses us with community! Having a healthy support system is so important. Not all relationships are positive ones, and not everyone feels like they have a good support system. If you are searching for community, pray about it. Ask God to put good people in your life. Be a good friend to others. Go to church and seek out groups that will lift you up and point you towards Christ. And if you have amazing people in your life, thank God! Tell those people you are grateful to have them by your side. It's so much better to do this life together.
"Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." Ecclesiastes 4:12
