And how He uses these friends to speak to my heart, to impart joy and wisdom. To aid me in revelations.
This morning I was praying hard, under heaviness and a dear friend called and through our conversation my spirits were lifted and my walk refreshed.
I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord.
I love knowing that God has hand-picked for me women who compliment me.
I am blessed beyond words in this area.
Ecclesiastes 4:9 tells us that two are better than one. Praise God for friends that share our burdens and our joys, that encourage one another, and that hold one another accountable.

Oh, yes--this. My sisters give me such a dose of Christ-love and in such a way that I can't get anywhere else...celebrating friendship with you tonight, Nicole. :)
ReplyDeleteYour post reminds me of one of my favorite songs, "More Than You'll Ever Know" by Watermark. It celebrates the gift of friendship...in particular friendships that share a love for Christ. SO thankful God has blessed you with the treasure of friendship. (Me, too!)
