Beautiful Friends

The heartfelt counsel of a friend
is as sweet as perfume and incense.
Never abandon a friend— either yours or your father’s.
When disaster strikes, you won’t have to ask your brother for assistance.
It’s better to go to a neighbor than to a brother who lives far away.
Proverbs 7:9-10


I must say that I am blessed to have such beautiful friends. Their beauty is more than just skin deep - they have some of the most beautiful spirits I've ever known. When one suffers, we all suffer. When one celebrates, we all celebrate. When one is in need, the others rise up to help. When one is broken hearted, the others immediately provide comfort. When one needs prayer, the others fall down on their knees - no matter the time of day or night.

I admire my friends. I admire their faith! I wish was as thoughtful, as creative, as supportive, and as loving as they are! It's such a blessing to be a part of this beautiful network of people - the body of Christ -who support each other through all of life's ups and downs. I am thankful for my friends!
In His Love, Cathy
