“A REAL FRIEND!”
Proverbs 18:24
“A man who has friends must himself be friendly, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.”
Being alone is a sad and dismal position. We really do need each other and a friend is one of the greatest possessions we can have. It is a sad and poor man who has no friends.
Thinking back across the years of my life, I have had a wealth of friends. Some of those friends have gone on to be with the Lord, but some are still alive. Many years ago I received a plaque from a dear friend that has special meaning to me: "A friend is one who knows you as you are, understands where you've been, accepts who you've become, and still gently invites you to grow.”
You may have dear friends but we have a friend who is even closer. Of course I am speaking of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the One who is with us at all times. He is there beside us.
You may feel frustrated with life or feel hurt and depressed because of the way things are going. You may even question whether it even helps to pray. He patiently stands at the door and quietly knocks. Please open the door and allow Him to heal all of the hurts you feel right now.
Blessings dear hearts. May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
