Friendship

Lifting Whoever Fell

"For if they fall, one will lift up his companion."
Ecclesiastes 4:10

Reflection

Everybody trips. The difference is having someone nearby to reach out a hand. Be that person for someone today.

Prayer

God, use me to lift up whoever has fallen. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. What do you do when a friend falls?
  2. Who helped you get back up?
  3. How can you be that friend today?

5-minute activity

Play a gentle game where one person sits on the floor and the other helps them up by the hands. Talk about friends who lift us up when we fall in life too. Read Ecclesiastes 4:9-10.
