Biblical Basis for Friendship



 What I Found in God's Word to Support True Friendship

Forgiving------Colossians 3:13
Reliable--------Colossians 3:13
Interdependent--Ecclesiastes 4:9
Empathetic----Romans 12:10
Nurturing-----Ephesians 4:29
Devoted-----1 Corinthians 13:4
Supportive----Ephesians 4:32
Humble----Ephesians 4:2
In Harmony----Ephesians 4:3
Patient-------1 Thessalonians 5:14

I found each of these verses to encourage and inspire friends on to good deeds. With the Lord's help, I want to improve upon each of these with each of my friends. One of the biggest things for me is for both of us to be real with each other and to pray for one another. This is the way to acceptance and love for one another. I am blessed to have a number of friends that are special and unique as well as a gift of God to me. To those I call friend, blessings to you and may God give you peace.


My prayer: Dear God, thank you ever so much for the people in my life that I am blessed to call friend. Grant each of the an extra measure of grace and peace today. Have mercy on them. Amen.
