Thursday, November 6 Real Friends An open rebuke is better that hidden love! Wounds from a friend are better that many kisses from an enemy. (Proverbs 27:5-6) ***A real friend is faithful, steadfast, sacrificial, and sanctifying. In other words, through their attitudes, ambitions and actions, real friends help us become a better person. If we have people in our lives that lead us astray, or promote ungodly values or actions in any way, they are not real, true friends to us. ***Our text today reminds us that real friends help make us better people and are willing to confront us when we are wrong, and strongly encourage us to make better decisions that will lead good and godly lives. ***By the way, the very best friend we can ever have is Jesus Christ. Jesus said in John 15:13-15: GREATER LOVE HAS NO ONE THAN THIS, THAN TO LAY DOWN ONES LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS. YOU ARE MY FRIENDS IF YOU DO WHATEVER I COMMAND YOU. NO LONGER DO I CALL YOU SERVANTS....BUT I HAVE CALLED YOU FRIENDS. Happy Tuesday!
