True Friendship
Good Morning/Evening!
“To speak truth faithfully is a healing stream.”
In uncertain times, continuing to rejoice in the Lord is not easy, but necessary. When we are struggling through unemployment, or facing housing issues, or the strain of a relationship, it can really be hard to find joy. The Bible tells us not to be anxious, but to bring our prayers and requests with thanksgiving to God. When we start our rejoicing with an attitude of thankfulness, we will be reminded of God’s goodness.
God has blessed us this far in our lives; He has always been faithful, both in meeting our needs and in encouraging our steps. That’s what true friendship means. Jesus calls us “Friend” because He shares with us all that His Father has shared with Him. He is our “Love Connection” to the main power source God!
When we find ourselves drawn to Him in thanksgiving, we also find the confidence for our next step in facing the days ahead of us. If you find the time, read Philippians 4:4-7, and find the understanding through seeing and hearing the words speak to your heart.
