The Importance of Friendship

encouragement is discouragement Which comes with jealousy and envy And comparison. One of the best things that you can do to combat That is to work the muscle of encouragement Instead of when I feel that little bit of jealousy Or resentment rising I am going to actually push towards encouragement Yes, yes, yes It's a muscle It has to be worked as Kaby said But it's also a good definition of friendship Access to strength when I need it access to strength when we need it but it's a muscle Friendship is a muscle and physical exercise Is such a good analogy to the spiritual life.
