Ecclesiastes 4:9, tell us “Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil.” I don’t think there is a better message on the subject of partnership.
In a world where selfishness and greed are so commonplace, it is a good thing to be reminded that in partnering and sharing with others, great benefit can be brought forth.
It’s easy particularly following a bad experience to declare, “I can do it alone!” or “I can do badly all by myself.” But the ability to recognize that there is still benefit in partnering with others can bear fruit.
Whether you are in relationship or business or even in a work situation with other coworkers, holding up your end of a valuable partnership is always the right decision. There are still great people in the world today and getting to know them and care about them is not a bad investment of your time.
We have all endured bad experiences and disappointments. Most of us can even quote a time that someone “did us wrong.” Allowing those negative things to taint your present or future situation will only hurt you in the long run.
If we look back over our lives and the things that were difficult, we can always identify the good that came out of it. Typically, if we take the time to learn the lesson, we find that those experiences provided curriculum to our lives that help to cause a necessary adjustment.
Hebrews 12:12:13 assures us, “now is the time for YOU to “strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees, and to make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.”
There are still great relationships to be birthed, along with business partnerships that produce great revenue through solid partnerships. Stop looking in the rear view mirror. Much like driving, constantly doing so, will ultimately cause a crash.
