Friends

I love friendship. I treasure it, more than the few relationships I have had while being in love with someone, more than any relationships I treasure friendships. Without friendships, I would have wondered if I mattered to God. Without friendships I would have truly felt abandoned. The relationship I had with my dad in the latter part of his life was a friendship more than being a daughter. My prayer is it is that way for my mom. I have friends that live down the block from me, both that I attend church with as well as knowing from outside circumstances than church. I would do anything for them and they have done all for me, even in rain and snow. This is the true meaning of team. A team is only functional when it works together. And friends do that by the very nature of the word. May God bless all of our friendships.
