A Friend Who Stays Close

My dear son,

Perhaps you could check in with a friend who comes to mind today. There is goodness in laughing together and in making time for each other's stories. Your Father wants those caring relationships to grow in your life.

Treasure the person beyond what they can give you. Welcome their good news, and do not turn away when difficulty comes. Steady love reveals itself in those moments, too.

You can also speak honestly when you need help. Being a good friend does not mean you must always be the one giving. Express gratitude, take an interest in one another's lives, and love the people beside you with care today.

With all my love,
Your Father

Proverbs 17:17
