ALONE DOES NOT WORK WELL

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

⁹ Two are better than one, since they each have someone else to benefit from their work. ¹⁰ Because even if they both fall, one of them will help his partner recover. But the one who is alone suffers and does not have another to help him recover. ¹¹ Likewise, if two are lying together, they keep each other warm, but how can one keep warm alone? ¹² Also, a single man might win in a fight with another alone, but two will defend themselves. A rope made of three parts is not easily broken.

partnership

In life, in business, and in ministry, partnership is just more efficient. A partner is someone you can depend on to make up for what lacks in yourself. A partner is someone to share successes and failures with. A Partner can help prevent failure, or help recover from it. A partner can help a successful person avoid pride in his accomplishment. A partner can share the joy earned from mutual accomplishment. Partnership increases the strength available for the work.

LORD, thank you for our partners. We value them as a gift from you. Show us how to display our appreciation for them so that they always know.
