Friends

Good morning family. Saturdays, don't you love them? Things to do, places to go, people to see or just time to catch your breath. This Saturday is a special one. This morning we celebrate my/our friend. Last night I thought a lot about friendship mainly because I was standing around watching Sherri's friends greet each other and talk about old times. Good friends are hard to find. True friends stand by you when no-one else will. They call to make sure you're okay even if they're not. A true friend does their best not to let you down or disappoint. A good friend reminds you of your true wealth and will continuously affirm you when you're at your lowest. A true friend knows your heart and understands you when everyone else is judging you. A true friend is not afraid to remind you of your true purpose. A good friend will comfort you in your darkest hour. A true friend will be your biggest cheerleader. A good friend is not afraid to tell you when you're wrong. A true friend won't take your side when you're wrong but has the courage to offer correction and feedback out of love. A good friend stands up for you, stands with you when you can't find the strength to stand alone. Have I been all of these things to all of my friends, probably not but I can say with all honesty that God has blessed me with friends who love me and I love them. At least one of my friends affirms me everyday and I try to do the same. Sherri' was good at that. We didn't talk on the phone a lot but I'd receive an occasional text that said "Luv u my friend". She was saying to me, you're okay. I'll miss her smile and her laugh but I thank God for sending her into my life. TeamFriends. Bblessedloveyou.
