Friend

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

If one falls down, his friend can help him up.  But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up.  Ecclesiastes 4:10

My life is blessed with good friends!  Friends who have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly in the life of Dawn Marie Karr and have stuck around.  That is the kind of friend that I want to be.  I want to be the friend who loves at all times...good, bad, or ugly.  I want to be the friend who helps her friends up when they fall.  I want to be the friend who sets aside her own desires to meet the needs of others.  I want to be the friend who listens, encourages, and prays.  I want to come alongside my friends and walk through tough times with them. 

I only know one person who can consistently be that friend...my friend, Jesus.  I need more of Him.  With Jesus shining through me, I can be a better friend.   My heart's desire is to make a difference in the lives of my friends and to be called a friend of God.  Give me Jesus!
