Friends

Who are your friends? We know so many people that we call our friends, but are they really friends? Friends come and go in our lives, each leaving a mark that makes you remember them for how they treated you, how they encourage you to become a better person.

There are also lukewarm friends, hot when everything is going right with you but cold when you come into a misfortune. Now you see them, now you don't!

Life is lonely without friends, no one to laugh with, no one to share your thoughts and feelings, no one to hang out with. True friends, call each other to know how you are, they make an extra effort to do so especially when they know you are feeling down. Friendship can not be forced, it must come from the heart.

Friends know how to help even if unasked. Kindred souls know how someone else feel. There will be a lot of acquaintances but just a few really close friends, choose them well. Seek out those who have fear in Me and do what I ask each of you - to practice loving kindness, compassion, justice and humility.

There are so many who profess loving Me but find it difficult to show their love for other people. The perfect way to know if someone really loves Me is to observe how they are with the less fortunate. If they give willingly without so much fuss, silent givers and silent keepers, these are My beloved children.
