I read this devo this morning and thought of all the people who have been this kind of friend to me! So thankful for those "mutual encouragers", and praying to be this kind of friend to others!!
Sustaining Friendships
How did leaders in the Bible cope with the demands of leadership? One way was to cultivate spiritual friendships and partnerships. David had Jonathan. Esther had Mordecai. Moses had his father-in-law, Aaron, Miriam and Joshua. Jesus had Peter, James, John, Mary, Martha and Lazarus. Paul had Barnabas, Luke and Timothy. How do you encourage one another in faith? What can you do to help one another focus on leading like Jesus today?
I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong—that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith.—Romans 1:11-12
