"A true friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need." (Prov 17:17 TLB)
Just because we call people our "Friend" does not make them one indeed. The proof of a real friend is not in their ability to love and stand with us when things are going well, but in their unfailing, unchanging love and stand with us when our world has turned upside down. It is then our eyes open to see the difference between our friends and mere associates.
PRAYER: Lord, thank you for being a friend that sticks closer to us than any brother. Help us to be that kind of friend to those with whom we are connected. Amen!
Prov 18:24. . . . There are "friends" who pretend to be friends, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. TLB
