How to Be A Friend
Our Greatest Example is Jesus
Proverbs 27:9 NIV
“Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart, and the pleasantness of a friend springs from their heartfelt advice.”
I believe
The Lord places
People in our lives
For a reason
And we are
Blessed
To call these
Special souls,
Friends,
His hands on Earth
The ones he sends
To celebrate the
Times of Joy
And to walk
With us
Through the
Storms!
~
I believe
We aren’t
Meant to be
Alone, when
He surrounds us
With his love,
And the company
Of those
He sends
Our way!
I believe
The greatest
Example
We have
For how
To be a
Good friend
Is Jesus!
~
I believe
In our times
Of need
He sends
People our way
To Lessen the pain
Ease the grief!

Let Our Lives Shine, Lord
Matthew 5:14-16 NIV “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. [15] Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. [16] In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Super Bowl LX Recap: A Team Called Hawks
Sixty. The Super Bowl turned 60! Still amazes me that this was the sixtieth Super Bowl played in NFL history. It seems like yesterday that I watched Super Bowl XXVII, the first SB I ever watched. The QB who won Super Bowl XXVII has since called a few SBs, and will call next year's game, but that's another story. Super Bowl LX took place at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, the home stadium of the San Francisco 49ers. However, it was one of their division foes who represented the NFC, as the Seattle Seahawks faced off against the New England Patriots.

You are right Michelle, no one has a better friend than Jesus. He loves us unconditionally.\ Well Done - beautiful poem, Michelle.
Michelle, that reminds me of the song, "What a friend we have in Jesus". I too believe that HE sets the example of how to be a friend. Wonderful poem, Michelle, and one we could all learn from. Nicely done!!
This felt so reassuring and was beautifully written. Loved your poem!
