Two are better than
one,
because they have a good return
for their work:
If one falls down, his friend can
help him up.
But pity the man who falls and has
no one to help him up!.....
....Though one may be overpowered,
two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not
quickly broken.
ECCLESIASTES 4:9-10,12
NIV
I am a firm believer that
isolation is very dangerous, particularly for men. When we cut
ourselves off from others/when we continually say "I've got it! No
problem...I don't need any help (when we
actually do) we get in
trouble. I know I do. God has so much to teach us and one another,
through us/through others. He uses
relationships between men willing to be vulernable and transparent
with one another. He uses these connections for and towards His
glory.
We need real relationships with
other men. You may have friends, who can you go deeper
with?
