God has blessed me with so many friends…friends from every segment of my life: childhood… youth…college…grad school…nearly 35 years of ministry in the same community…and one best friend through over 41 years of marriage.  Our friends are truly a treasure trove from God.  Never take your friends for granted.  Make the effort to stay in touch as much as possible.  It will be worth it!

 

Proverbs 17:17

A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

 

Proverbs 18:24b

A real friend sticks closer than a brother.

 

“I cannot even imagine where I would be today were it not for that handful of friends who have given me a heart full of joy. Let’s face it, friends make life a lot more fun. ” ~ Chuck Swindoll

 

The Lord bless you and keep you…
