Friendship Friday

Thank You, Friend


Thank you, friend, for all the things
That mean so much to me--
For concern and understanding
You give abundantly.


Thanks for listening with your heart;
For cheering me when I'm blue;
For bringing out the best in me;
And just for being you.


Thanks for in-depth conversation
That stimulates my brain;
For silly times we laugh out loud;
For things I can't explain.


For looking past my flaws and faults;
For all the time you spend;
For all the kind things that you do,
Thank you; thank you, friend.


copied from an email, but none the less how I feel my friends, have a good day.  Have a very blessed Friday, and know you are my friends, and I appreciate each of you that stop by my blog, be Blessed and be a Blessing.

♥ FRIENDSHIP FRIDAY

Well it is our Friendship Friday again, I welcome you to my blog, if we are nothing else we certainly are friendly. I love my new friends I have made since opening this blog, and to all my friends I had before from various sites, welcome, come sit a spell with me, and lets laugh, and sip some tea together. What kind of tea do you like best? I have a friend that love the Chai tea, I love the Raspberry tea myself, so what ever your favorite is, sip with me on this Friday, take a break from what ever you are doing, and just relax, and think about your friendships.

In God's word he has things to say about friends too;  Proverbs 18:24 "A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

We must be friendly, we must entertain others, and see the importance of them, we must look past our own selfish needs and look to the needs of others, one verse says that "A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity." Proverbs 17:17 I have made some life long friends that started out with me helping them in small way, when others help us, we have a bond with them, and we see a inner love in them, that gives us a tendency to want to be near them, to be friends with them. So never take it lightly when you need help, or when you help others.

Now my favorite verse, is found in John 15:13 "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." I love that verse, and oh to be like Jesus, I know I fall so short, and my list is very short who I would lay down my life for, but he laid his life down for us, for man in general, with only one stipulation, that we trust in him, accept him, oh friend if you have never trusted Jesus as your Saviour, let today be the day, open your heart to him, and ask him to come in and be your friend, your love, your life, your saviour...

Now my friends, I ask that you show yourself friendly, send an E-card or a thinking of you card to some one you know, there is someone in need, I am sure you know some one like this, some one who just needs to know you care, and you are thinking of them.

Have a wonderful Friday, and weekend, God bless you real good.

FRIENDSHIP FRIDAY

Well Praise God, it is Friday, the end of the work week, the beginning of the weekend.
Friends are such an important part of our life, it is wonderful to have a close friend to be  able to talk to, and to share with,  be encouraged by, that is what a friend is all about. We should never take our friendships for granted, God places them in our life to help us daily, there were times when I think I would down and never come back up if it had not been for my friends. There is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother too, that is my best friend, Jesus, he is always there and he is always looking out for my best interest. Do you know him as your Friend? He is just a prayer away, accepted him as your own personal Saviour, and he will become your friend instantly.

I have chosen this day to start a Friendship Friday, I would love for you to join me, and to participate in this day, what I am going to do, is, pick one person to send an email, or an e-card to, let them know you are praying for them, you love them, and you think they are very important to you and in your life. God bless you dear friends, and remember...



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