Team Effort. July 2,2026. Two are better than one ; because they have a good reward for their labour -Ecclesiastes 4:10. In 1869, construction began on the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City.Soon after work commenced , chief engineers Washington Roebling became very ill .His wife , Emily pitched in to help .She studied his plans , revised specifications. ,and gave instructions to his assistants .Emily assisted her husband in any way she could and when the bridge opened in 1883 , she rode in the first carriage across it .He husband praised her “remarkable talent “and “her thourough knowledge of the work and plans .”. Such teamwork is beautiful and the secret to the most meaningful work of our lives .Solomon explained the basis of teamwork in Ecclesiastes :”Two are better than one , because they have a good reward for their labour :if either of them falls down , one can help the other up “(4:9-10)And Paul said we should view teamwork as a key to the work of the church :”There are many part , but one body “(1Corinthians 12:20)He further explained that there should be “no division in the body “(v25)as everyone served together , caring for each other . In our work , our family ,or in the life of the church , none of us are in this alone .We need each other when someone falters ,and we need each other as we combine our talents .Teamwork is vital as we set out to accomplish what God wants us to do.-Dave Branon in what ways can you team up with others to do God’s work ?How have been helped by a teammate in serving Christ ? Thank You ,dear God , for guiding me to work together with others .Please help me to be the kind of helper others can depend on .
