Stay By Your Friends

Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. - Romans 12:15 (NIV).
       
How many times do we actually rejoice with those who are rejoicing?  How many times do we mourn with those who mourn? We are there for the first hour, the first day, maybe even the first week.  If they rejoice too long, if they mourn too long, then we cannot stay  because we have our lives to attend to. We are too busy tending to our kids, our spouses, our work, our home, to emotionally stand by our friends or those in need.  How long does it take to write them a short note? Give them a call? Invite them to dinner? Baby-sit their kids? If we were in their position, what would we want people to do for us?

Have you received Jesus as your Lord and Saviour?  Do you believe Jesus died to pay the price for your sin?  That He was raised from the dead?  Then just pray aloud, "Lord Jesus, I repent of all my sins.  Come into my heart and be my Lord and Saviour."  If you believed in your heart and confessed with your mouth, you are Born-again.  Let us know if you prayed this prayer.
