No one goes through this life unscathed. Sooner or later, tragedy will strike. When it does, lean on your friends. There may not be anything they can do to put your broken world back together. Nonetheless, their emotional support will be enormously valuable. Their prayers will be a source of great comfort, enabling you to bear things you never imagined yourself capable of bearing. And in the end, you will overcome.
“He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. Then he said to them, ‘My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.’”
— Matthew 26:37-38
Lord Jesus, help us to invest in our friends now so they will be there for us in the hour of our tribulation. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
