Proverbs 27:6
Wounds from a friend can be trusted ... (NIV)
True Christian friends will build each other up emotionally, spiritually, and physically. Friends like to be together simply because it feels good. We receive strength, encouragement, and love. We talk, we cry, we listen. But at times we also have to say the difficult things our dearest friend needs to hear. Yet, because of the shared trust and acceptance, we are the one person who can impact our friend's heart, for we know how to deliver the hard message with truth and grace. I believe this is what Proverbs 27:17 means when it says, "As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another."
I have to be honest that I still miss a friend that I lost lately ~ I would be lying if I didn't say it hurt to be accused of something that I didn't do, maybe the accusation was because that some didn't want that relationship with her due to "past" but I didn't look at any of that , I viewed her as a friend a BFF , we have all sin and fallen short of the glory of the Lord~ we all have those things in our Past that God calls us to move forward HE says in his word that our Past has been forgiven and buried in the deepest sea...I Praise God for he remembers NO more wow ...how awesome is that . We need to look beyond ourselves and be there for one another not for what others are saying for we know in the deepest part of our hearts our thoughts and feelings of one another, Praising Jesus that I have the most awesome friends, ones that are going to hang in there with me regardless of what others assume or say about me, God knows my heart and that's all that matters , so if I should transcend worlds today ~ I can say "Search my heart O God make it ever true, Search my heart O God may I be like you, you are the Potter , I am the clay , mold me and make me , this is what I pray .....Search my heart, O God make it ever true , Search my Heart O God may I be like YOU !!!
