Putting the Bet in Better

Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother who is far away.

-Proverbs 27:10

The blessings in our lives are better than the ones not in them. The friend who is close is better than the brother who is distant. Proximity is part of the formula that makes something good for us.

Bet. So let’s rejoice in our friends, our spouse, our fellow church members, in our every blessing that is in our lives. Let’s turn to them for help and support rather than wishing upon a star. For us, they are the very best.
