We are all travelers in what John Bunyan calls the wilderness of this world, and the best that we find in our travels is an honest friend.  He or she is a fortunate voyager who finds many.  We travel indeed to find them.  They are the end and the reward of life.  They keep us worthy of ourselves; and when we are alone, we are only nearer to the absent.
-Robert Louis Stevenson

I lift up my soul.

Let the morning bring me word of Your unfailing love,
for I have put my trust in You.
Show me the way I should go,
for to You I lift up my soul.

Psalm 143:8

To have a friend...to be a friend...

To have a friend is to have one of the sweetest gifts that life can bring;

to be a friend is to have a solemn and tender education of soul from day to day.

Friendship is a Gift

January 4, 2012

Our road will be smooth and untroubled no matter what care life may send;

If we travel the pathway together, and walk side by side with a friend.

-Henry Van Dyke

A living, loving God can ...

A living, loving God can and does make His presence felt, can and does speak to us in the silence of our hearts, can and does warm and caress us till we no longer doubt that He is near, that He is here.

-Brennan Manning

On Friendship

January 2, 2012

Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn
Romans 12:15

Friendship is a gift

I was given a "Friendship Calendar" for Christmas. I will share the days with you - starting 1/1/2012.
I hope you enjoy the days as much as I do.

Friendship is a gift from God
that's blessed in every part ...
born through love and loyalty...
conceived within the heart.
