Reading: Ecclesiastes 4:9-10, 9 Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work: 10 If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!
Life is designed for companionship, not loneliness. Some may prefer isolation, thinking they cannot trust anyone. We are not here on earth to serve ourselves, however, but to serve God and others. Don’t isolate youself and try to go it alone.
Be a team member!
Leonard Bernstein, a famous conducter of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra was asked once “What is the most difficult instrument in the orchestra to play?” He responded, “Second fiddle”.
God’s family is filled with second fiddle players. Men and women who faithfully and diligently serve as back-ups to those first chair heroes. Moses had Aaron. David had Jonathon. Elijah had Elisha. Lone Ranger even had Tonto.
We are all called at times to be the server and the served.
Who has God sent into your life to uplift today?
To whom can you willingly be second fiddle to today?
Remember, you are in good company.
REVIEW
Who were you able to uplift or be second fiddle for today?
What was their reaction? How did this impact you today?
