As we begin our day, let us reflect on the wisdom of Ecclesiastes 4:12, “And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” This verse reminds us of the strength that comes from unity and collaboration.
In a world where individualism is often celebrated, we forget that we are not alone in our struggles and triumphs. We are part of a larger community, connected by our shared experiences and goals. When we stand together, we become an unstoppable force, a threefold cord that cannot be broken.

This verse is not just a metaphor; it is a practical principle that applies to our daily lives. When we face challenges, we can choose to face them alone or seek the support of others. When we stand together, we can pool our resources, share our expertise, and encourage each other to persevere.
In the context of Ecclesiastes, this verse is speaking specifically about the importance of friendship and community in the face of adversity. But it also applies to our relationships with God and with each other. When we are connected to God and to others, we are not alone in our struggles. We have a support system that can help us weather any storm.
As we go about our day, let us remember the power of unity. Let us seek to build each other up, rather than tear each other down. Let us be the threefold cord that cannot be broken, a testament to the strength that comes from our connection to God and to each other.
May we be reminded that we are not alone, that we are part of a larger community that is connected by our shared experiences and goals. And may we be encouraged to stand together, to support each other, and to be the threefold cord that cannot be broken.
