Inspiration Text: Job 2:11-13; Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

When Job\\u2019s three friends, Eliphaz the   Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite, heard   about all the troubles that had come upon him, they set out from their homes   and met together by agreement to go and sympathize with him and comfort him. When they saw him from a   distance, they could hardly recognize him; they began to weep   aloud, and they tore their robes and sprinkled dust on their heads.  Then they sat on the   ground with him for seven days and seven nights. No one said a word   to him, because they saw how great his suffering was.

\\u2026Two are better than one, because they have a   good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow.   But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up!   Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone?   And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand   him\\u2014a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
