I have been working on our Bible stories for use in our DVBS. This time, God gave me the theme of friendship. While studying the scriptures, I couldn't help but cry as I read the passages. This is not my first time reading the stories, but this time the message conveyed was so intense that I was moved to tears. Many Bible men and women showed such love and loyalty to their friends, no matter what. These remarkable examples of friendship are lessons we should all learn and emulate.
As I study the passages, I came to a point of realization where I found myself I wasn't that good friend who I thought I was. In my mind and in my heart I know I wanted myself to be the best friend one could ever have. Now, I have seen that I needed more effort to be a real good friend to all my friends.
