When sin entered into the world, it affected everything, including human relationships. It is very instructive that the first murder in the bible occurs between two brothers. Sadly, this kind of disharmony in relationships
continues to mark the human experience. Today, we pick up our sermon series in Ecclesiastes, and in the section we have come to, (Chapter 4, verses 9-16), the Preacher talks about the benefit of companionship.
Because relationships at time can be difficult to maintain, we can easily devalue the importance of human companionship. Let’s allow God’s word to speak to us afresh on this subject.
