a quick thought

Last night driving to small group - I was doing a little reasoning in my head & heart. I came up with this conclusion:

Having friends makes it so much easier to be believer.

I was thinking about Daniel and thinking about his three friends and how they tagged along with him. When things worked out for him, they worked out for them as well. They were truly walking through his trials and strengths with him. So thinking about friends - how far am I willing to go to walk through life with them? What am I willing to sacrifice? Do I believe that God will provide them wherever I go?

I cannot express my love for the friends God has blessed me with - starting with my mom & sister, all the way up to Rachel that I just met last week and all the sisters in between. So - here's my tribute to all of you - I'd name you but I'm not sure who reads this:) I love you ladies.

What shall we do for our sister on the day when she is spoken for? If she is a wall, we will build on her a battlement of silver,but if she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar. Songs 8:8-9

Yes! Thank you, Lord, for the friendship of sisters in you! It is such a sweet gift you've given us. Really not necessary in the grand scheme of things...but it sure helps to have a "sister" to walk and talk (and blog!) our way through the valleys of life. Great verse, Jess - thanks for illuminating:)
