Living in Increase (Part 11) - Increase in Joy

DAY 3 OF 35

The Company You Keep

Yesterday, we learned that there is power in the tongue, and when we speak positively to ourselves and others, we nourish our souls. The company we keep has power, too. We are not meant to do this life alone, but we must be careful with whom we surround ourselves.

In the above Scripture, the word “bear” in Greek means “to endure something unpleasant or difficult.” Fellow believers in Christ should be patient and love one another through their weaknesses.

Surrounding ourselves with humble, gentle, and patient people who will endure our pain and struggle with us in love will bind us together in peace. When we have peace, our attitude will become more positive.

Action Step: If you haven’t already, join a small group at your local church or find a group of believers to meet with regularly. These groups are a great place to connect with others, grow in your faith, and experience healing.
