Proverbs 18:24 (NKJV) 24 A man who has friends must himself be friendly,\u00a0But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Jesus is an example of a true\u00a0friend.\u00a0He\u00a0listens to us and hears us even when all others turn us\u00a0away. He helps us through things even when it was us that brought on the problem.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I have a dear brother who needs healing and deliverance.\u00a0He is in his 40’s and has been in and out of the hospital 3 times this year. Each time he seems to be getting worse. His liver is very bad due to drinking excessively. It\u00a0is\u00a0severely\u00a0damaged\u00a0and\u00a0not functioning properly to get rid of the toxins in his body.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Today, as I drove him around to run errands, I just felt like I needed to be his friend. I didn’t need to be\u00a0looking down at him because he has hurt himself in such a way, or\u00a0telling\u00a0him what he did\u00a0wrong.\u00a0He just needed\u00a0a good friend,\u00a0someone to be there because they care.<\/p>\n

Sometimes being a friend means to just be there by their side, no matter what happens or what they have done; To love them and help them even if we don’t see eye to eye on everything.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The\u00a0balance in\u00a0this\u00a0is that we must pray and let God lead us as to who needs help, where and when.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Proverbs 17:17 (NKJV) 17 A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Be that friend that God call us to be as He leads us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
