What is a Friend?

[122 words]

A friend is someone who knows us and loves us in spite of all our faults. It is someone we can depend on even when it takes great effort on their part (think “Jesus”).

A friend is someone we trust, respect and depend on in times of need as well as in the good times (Think “us” as we live for Jesus). A friend is someone we love and appreciate being with whether it is free time, work, or something of a more serious nature.

We are glad you chose to be our friend today. We hope you have chosen to be Jesus’ friend as well. Jesus said, “You are My friends if you do whatever I command you” (John 15:14).
