Friendship
The Bible
says: “A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.” Proverbs 18:24 (KJV)
On one occasion, Peppermint Patty said to Marcie: “I’d
like to read this book, Marcie, but I’m kind of afraid. I had a grandfather who didn’t think much of reading.”
She continued by saying, “He always said that if you read too many books, your head would fall off.”
Marcie responds, “you start the first chapter, and I’ll hold onto your head!”
Friend, hold on to friends and let them hold on to you so that we will all save face by facing the
future as people who will know and do God’s Word.
Friends understand when we
fail, forget, and foolishly act as though we had no “fetching up”!
Do you
have friends or just close relationships and acquaintances. I praise the Lord for my bride who is my BFF. I am so blessed
to have the friends the Lord has blessed me with.
Let’s encourage one another
to cherish those who really are friends. How can we ever place a price on them. If you want to have friends, then you must
be a friend to them.
Friends share with others what they have and cherish. Our greatest
wealth is our Friend Jesus Christ. Him we ought to share with others so we may rejoice with them for eternity. Let’s
encourage one another to build friendships through the power of the Holy Spirit by sharing Christ Jesus with those we come
in contact! We will all be eternally glad we did!
