I’ve decided to try and write everyday; I may not post something everyday but it is my desire to put pen to page in my notebook on a more regular basis. So what can I say about today? Simply, I love my friends. About a week maybe a week and a half ago I got a message from the mother of one of my friends, thanking me for being such a good friend to her daughter, the only reason I bring this up is that in this message she included a quote that read something like, a true friend is one who pushes you closer to God. These are not the exact words from this quote but this is my way to describe the feeling that that resonates with me at the end of a most wonderful summer. I can honestly say the most beautiful thing I have found this summer is a deeper relationship with God, and the time and energy I spent with my friends was such a vital part of my new found hunger for this relationship. People change people, true friends push you closer to God and relationship with God make the world a more beautiful place to behold. I love my friends

I think we might be the same person... living our lives 8 years apart.
ReplyDeleteI just want to say... as difficult as it may be to hear (being 8 years your senior) friends come and go but you need to always be you no matter who's standing by your side. I'm glad that you're drawing nearer to God The Father and His Son. Jesus is and always will be the best friend you could ever have.
