"He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end."

Garden of Friends

Friends come in all shapes and sizes, but they are all special and hold a place in my heart. I just got back from Volleyball practice and I realized that I have been blessed with some of the greatest friends. "Iron sharpens iron, so does [a friend] to another" (Proverbs 27:17). I have quiet friends who remind me that I don't need to raise my voice to be heard. I have energetic friends who remind me that joy is wonderful to have and that I need to keep my body in shape. I have funny friends who remind me that laughter is the best medicine. I have friends that I only see at school but they remind me that I have friends in "high places." But the greatest friend, and my best friend, is Jesus. Jesus is a friend to the sinner, the broken, the lonely, and the righteous of heart. He is the greatest friend I could ever have and I don't know what I'd do or be without Him. I pray that Jesus is your best friend too, and if He isn't than know this that He wants to be your friend and His arms are open, ready to catch you when you fall into them. God bless!!!!
