In your marriage, at your school, on the job and yes.....even in our great country we must be a team, work as a team and think as a team. When we read and study history, especially the Declaration of Independence we see a team who was one for all and all for one. That one, was Freedom! Men sold all they had, gave all their money, their homes and their lives for that one thing. We take that one thing, Freedom and treat it as though it is an option. It is not an option, it is what they died for. It is the same with our faith. People have been giving their lives for what we believe even before Jesus gave His life as well.
Nothing in life is free. If we want to be able to depend on others, rather than have to depend on others, then we need to start with us.
"Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ,
so that whether I come and see you or remain absent,
I will hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;"
"He who is faithful in a very little thing is faithful also in much;
and he who is unrighteous in a very little thing is unrighteous also in much."
