And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone;
1. Be Intentional
Turn to me and have mercy, for I am alone and in deep distress.
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.
9Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. 10If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble.
2. Be Consistent
32“And so, my children,[1] listen to me,
for all who follow my ways are joyful.
33Listen to my instruction and be wise.
Don’t ignore it.
34Joyful are those who listen to me,
watching for me daily at my gates,
waiting for me outside my home!
35For whoever finds me finds life
and receives favor from the Lord.
36But those who miss me injure themselves.
All who hate me love death.”

- 8:32 Hebrew my sons.
3. Be Giving
Do Not Judge Others
38Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full—pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back.[1]”
Translation notes (1)
- 6:38 Or The measure you give will be the measure you get back.
