Don't you just love that a true friend will call you on your stuff and still love you? Don't you just love how you can share your deepest vulnerabilities? Of course, Jesus is my best friend. If you would have asked me four years ago, I had no friends like that and for SURE, I couldn't have ever imagined that one day, I would call Jesus my friend, my best friend. And now, even though we've never met face to face, I see into your heart through your writing and I love knowing you! I have few friends like this so I cherish them even more.

One friend embraces God like nobody else. One friend possess theological knowledge. One friend has thoughtfulness beyond measure. One friend exudes positivity that is absolutely addicting. One friend looks at the world and its cultures like no one can. One friend has the courage to speak her mind for what is right in this world. One friend's absolute strength to seek the righteousness of God despite the condition of this world. One friend's joy is so overwhelming that you are immediately in her world when she enters the room. It is these traits that I desire for myself. All of my friends listed here are actually my teachers in a way. They are teaching me how to be the person that God wants me to be. In their presence, I am but a mere student. Beyond it all, I love each and every one them with all of my heart and soul. My wealth is beyond measure because of the people that I am bless to have within my life. One friend holds the wisdom.
