Friendships (6)

I'm Thankful for Friends!

I have been blessed with many wonderful friendships.  Several years ago, after we moved, I thought I would never find any friends in our area.  I seemed to be the only girl my age, it was kinda depressing.  After much prayer, I have been blessed with many wonderful Christian friends as well as kept one of the best relationships with my dear friends Jenna, Josh, and their whole family.  It's so amazing and refreshing to be able to share our real thoughts without worrying if we will hurt or offend each other.  To all of my awesome friends.....thank you for you friendship!  You all are such a blessing to me.

All of us playing in the water on a hot summer day while the parents show their wisdom and sit in the shade.

Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls for he has no one to help him up.
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

 A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
Prov 17:17 

 A man that hath friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
Prov 18:24
