What is a Friend?

Proverbs 18:24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly, and there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother

Proverbs 17:17 A friend loveth at all times and a brother is born for adversity

My mom gave me an assignment that made me consider the qualities of friendship.
I found these scriptures to go along with what I think.

A friend is someone that cares about you, comforts you in times of trouble, and just calls to chat. A friend is someone that you visit from time to time, or writes letters to each other. A friend is someone you can laugh with and have good times- someone that will be there even in the hard times. A friend can often be looked at as a brother or sister. A friend helps in times of need, and is someone you love and look up to. A friend can make mistakes, even disappoint you, but a true friend will try and make amends and restore the friendship. A friend is loving and kind. A friend is honest. A friend is someone you can trust.

Anniversary Sunday

Sunday I got to bring one of my very best friends to church. This picture of her & I was taken over the summer. She was a little nervous on Sunday. It was Anniversary Sunday at our church, so there was good fellowship and even a special lunch between the services. The guest Pastor taught out of Luke 18:17 "verily I say unto you, whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of god as a little child shall in no wise enter therein"

This week there have been guest Pastors each night (Monday through Wednesday)
There is also a missionary family visiting our church this week The Darden Family. I was hoping their CD had a website on it so I could share it with you, but I can't find one. Their music is sooooo pretty!

Do you have a church you attend? A family within the body of Christ?
