Friends
A friend is someone you can count on. Someone who is going to be there for you through thick and thin. They will be with you through life’s battles. Through the times of victory and in the times of defeat.
A friend has a gift for showing up at the right place, at the right time, at the moment you need that word of comfort, a pat on the back or a word of insight that will help you in life’s decisions.
A friend is someone who will tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear. They will always be honest and open and they will help you to be accountable not only to them but to yourself.
A friend is not afraid to share their heart with you because they love you and want only what is good for you.
A friend is patient. They will have an ear to listen, a heart of concern and a desire to strengthen you.
A friend will pray with you, cry with you and rejoice with you.
I have many friends. New friends and old friends, young and old, who are walking with me on the path that I am on in life. I rejoice that they are here.
I am blessed by the many new friends that have come into my life through Hill Country Thoughts and for that I rejoice. I rejoice that I can laugh with you, cry with you, pray with you and just be here and hopefully be a blessing to my friends both online and off-line.
But Oh, I rejoice even more because I have a friend in Jesus, who is walking with me each and every day. Leading me, guiding me, speaking to me through His word, through His presence and through those that He is bringing into my life.
He is not only my Lord and Savior, He is my Friend!
Till later,
Paul
