Tuesday's Devotion: Things Remembered

Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 (CEV) You are better off to have a friend than to be all alone, because then you will get more enjoyment out of what you earn.  If you fall, your friend can help you up. But if you fall without having a friend nearby, you are really in trouble.

Yesterday all three of the dogs needed a visit to the vet; two for immunizations and one for allergies.  Thank goodness Joe came home to help me.  The last time I took all three by myself they got me tangled up in the leashes and threw me to the floor in the reception area. Yesterday the receptionist / assistant asked me how our Seniors Easter Egg Hunt went.  It made me feel good that she remembered me telling her during that last visit that we were having one. I thought on the way home that I need to be more intentional in remembering things about others especially those casual friends.  Sometimes a little act of kindness, of paying attention can mean more to someone than we might imagine.

God of Heaven, thank you so much for friends. Please bring us friends and help us to become friends to others.  We ask in Jesus’ name. Amen.
