That was the sermon at COJ this morning.... Pastor Martin asked.. what qualities do you look for in a friend? people in the congregation started calling out what they look for... honesty, loyal, listener, someone that loves you for you, etc etc. I said adventerous, I think that is very important! Someone that you can say... what do you think about.. and they say "lets do it".
I've been very lucky with my dear friends, no matter what I've come up with ~ they are "in"!!I also have one friend that is always my "cheerleader", she supports me no matter what new thing I've gotten into! I appreciate that! Very blessed because my husband does the same! So I can always count on those two no matter what!!
Also blessed because I have two sisters that are truly my friends as well! My circle is wide~ and deep in the years of friendship as well... and the best part is we always have room for more!
The sermon went on to tell are you the type of friend that is bringing people to Jesus~ like in Luke~ where he talks about the friends that cut the whole in the roof, to take their friend to Jesus.... I hope I am that friend, and I know I have friends like that!! (my friends would be parting the crowd..... excuse me,, got to get my friend to Jesus!!) love you!!
I know I only have a couple of followers on my blog~ but if each of you write a note to your friend thanking them.. and maybe what is the #1 quality about that person that "attracks" you to them... and ask them to ask their friends to do the same... we would all be sharing a blessing to each of our friends and their circle!! .. just a thought... make someones day !! You could even share the Luke story.. and then we would be sharing Jesus too <3
