Who Are Your True Friends?

Do you ever wonder who your true friends are?

Are you aware of how many true friends you have?

True friends are a dime a dozen. If you have many people claiming to be your friend, I’d be on the side of caution. Your definition of friend likely will be different.

Friends are people who have been with you for years, been with you through your highs and your lows, no matter what you’ve done they didn’t leave your side. These friends don’t judge you but love you through your mess even when you come with stress. These friends have been right by your side and haven’t caused you to question their loyalty.

There’s a lot they do to add to your life like…..

Help take your mind off the hard stuff

Talk you through your confusion

Be silent and listen with the intent to understand

Offer feedback and advice when asked

What they are not is a sometime friend. They aren’t only around when things are good and disappear when things are bad.

Consider yourself blessed if you have an average of 5.

Those 5 are the committed, the real-straightforward, the God-fearing, the impartial, and the inspiration.

1. The friend who will be there no matter what. The person you can call on any time of night, talk to any time of day. The forever available.

2. The friend who will keep it real. This person doesn’t care if you get upset and all in your feelings. They love you enough to tell you about yourself and tell you when you’re wrong. No beating around the bush.

3. The spiritual friend that will make you see the importance of putting God first in all you do. This person will remind you of the goodness of God and what He has done and still doing for you.

4. The friend that’s going to have your back regardless of the situation. This person, no matter how many times you mess up will not judge you because of your mistakes, failures, or imperfections. They are your ride or die. They will pick you up and brush you off when you fall.

5. The friend that will motivate, encourage, uplift, and inspire you to want to be a better you. This person is grounded, stable and a constant figure you look up to and respect.
