BONDS THAT BRING CONTENTMENT
I am very glad that Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus have come here. They have been providing the help you weren’t here to give me. They have been a wonderful encouragement to me, as they have been to you…(1 Corinthians 16:17-18 NLT)
1. The arrival of some people cause us stress, but there are other people who make us feel happy.
I am very glad that Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus have come here… 1 Cor. 16:17
2. Some people approach us just to “get” something from us, they look like vampires that suck us, but there are others who help us when they approach. Some count us out, but others add to us and are a blessing to our lives.
Some only bring problems, but others offer solutions.
Some only bring us loads, but others offer help.
…They have been providing the help you weren’t here to give me.
(1 Corinthians 16:17 NLT)

Think about it:
What kind of people do you associate with?
What kind of person are you?
What person do you think needs words of encouragement?
