I have Some Issues with my Stomach because of Prescription Arthritis Drugs I Took in the Past, and Wish there was Something Better we could Take.
The Side Affects from these Strong Meds are Bad. :(

there is a scripture for that. Probably many.

“Proverbs 27:17

King James Version (KJV)

17.Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And Genesis 11:3-9

"3 Then they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” 
They had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar.

4 And they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; 
let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.” 

5 But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built.

6 And the Lord said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, 
and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.

7 Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”

8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they ceased building the city.

9 Therefore its name is called Babel, because there the Lord confused the language of all the earth; 
and from there the Lord scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

I think you may be mis-interpreting the current-day importance of this passage.

Today we understand the meaning of "bricks and mortar".
Today we recognize why people have been "scattered ... abroad from there over the face of all the earth".
Today we understand the significance of the instruction to cease building the city.

Obviously, we're supposed to use the internet for our communications and purchases.

[jaycee]

And then Solomon said, “My Solomonic decisions would have come easier if that kid had been born twins.”

[stephenjohnbanker]

That was quite good!

Next I’ll tell you about the runner who was sent to Joshua during that long battle to ask, on behalf of the men of course, whether they would be entitled to overtime for that day’s work.

Happy 39th, Yorkie!!
