When life gets stormy, we need each other. Nehemiah’s people, like the early church, learned that cooperation and unity are what move God’s mission forward. Today, ask God to break down any walls of jealousy, pride, or distance that keep you from others. Pray for unity in our church, healing in relationships, and gratitude for the people who hold up your arms when you grow weary.
