“A true friend is someone who always lets you in and never lets you down.â€
(Tim Keller)
We all need friends, relationships, in our lives. To go through life without others would be lonely, unbearably so.
At a quick glance, Proverbs offers us insight into the qualities of a good friend:
- “A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity.†(17:17, NASB)
- “Faithful are the wounds of a friend, But deceitful are the kisses of an enemy.†(27:6, NASB)
- “Oil and perfume make the heart glad, So a man’s counsel is sweet to his friend.†(27:9, NASB)
In Scripture, we have been called friends with God, showing us not only the important role relationships play in our lives but more so, three qualities to be found in a friend.
Join me at Woman to Woman Ministries HERE where we will discuss these three qualities to be found in a friend. Let’s commit to developing better friendships.
