Life is Better with Friends

 

I may be young, but I am quite the social butterfly. This is a picture of me with my three best buddies. God didn't create us to become hermits and ignore the world. We're supposed to go out and make friends! Here's what the Bible says about friends -

Hebrews 10:24-25
"And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching."

Romans 12:10
"Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves."

It's a great comfort to have friends. Friends can turn a bad day into a good one. Remember as you go through out your day that God gave us friends for a reason. You may be able to reach some one that no one else can, just by being their friend. Sometimes all it takes is an encouraging word and it can turn their whole day around. When my mommy is sad, my daddy can always get her happy again. I think that's pretty special. God puts people in our lives to be our bright spot. Life would be pretty dreadful if we had to endure it alone, but thankfully God has given us lots of friends to share it with! What kind of friend are you?
