Friends

This word is a sacred one to me. I have a very close circle of friends. A very close circle... so, close and small in number I can count on one hand.  Don't be upset I have given you the other word, associate. It is not as close, but still endearing.

My Lord defines the word friend in this way. Great love has no one than this, than to lay down one'a life for his friends John 15:13.

Of course, I know that this maybe one sided, but I don't have to deal with that. I give it all over to God the unthankful people. And let Him deal with them.

I am so thankful I have friends. Some I talk to daily and others not so often, but we know that friends, true friends are forever. I thank God for them all new and old.

A compassionate heart is a friendly friend!
