More new year wishes on Christian brotherhood...

The below quote by George Muller (a wonderful evangelist of the 1800's)...came in my Daily Christian Quote 2 days ago. In trying to catch up with my email, I came across it & thought how it so fit in with what I posted earlier today. May your new year be filled with encouraging arms and grace, one to another, as you grow in obedience to become more & more into the likeness of Christ.

"As to the importance of the children of God opening their hearts to each other, especially when they are getting in a cold state, or are under the power of a certain sin, or are in especial difficulty; I know from my own experience how often the snare of the devil has been broken when under the power of sin; how often the heart has been comforted when nigh to be overwhelmed; how often advice, and great perplexity, has been obtained, - by opening my heart to a brother in whom I had confidence. We are children of the same family, and ought therefore to be helpers one of another." ~George Muller
