True Friends

A research conducted in the past few years indicated that most of us have only two really close friends, those who will be there no matter what, no matter time or distance, no matter when. Can you think of two in your life that are true friends, those that will be there no matter what? It's difficult isn't it? Can you think of two people that you would be his/her true friend?

It's not difficult to see why this statistic may be true. We are all busy with our own lives. We have spouses and children, we have obligations and responsibilities, we have outside influences and internal challenges. It's really hard to find the extra time to build those deep, deep relationships.

Today's word is a quote about true friends: "Life is not about the people who act true to your face. It's about the people who remain true behind your back."

Obviously, JESUS is my closest Friend. And, Trish is as true and loyal and devoted as anyone could ever be; she is definitely my closest and dearest earthly friend. So, I married one of my two. JESUS will never leave us nor forsake us. He will lead us and guide us, directing each step we take if we will just let Him. He is truly the dearest and closest friend you could ever have. And, as I mentioned, Trish is the most loyal and devoted friend anyone could ever have. I am so blessed that GOD allowed me to marry my best friend.

So, how about you? Got close friends? Are you working to build and nurture those relationships? Have you been hurt by "friends" before and now are too leery to trust someone again? Well, you can't hold on to those that aren't true. Allow GOD to direct you to find your true friends.

Be Blessed,
