Proverbs 18:24 (NIV)
A man that hath friends must show himself friendly and there is a friend that sticketh close than a brother".

There is a friendship waiting for you that will lift you up out of the miry clay that will set your feet upon a rock to stay. There is a friendship waiting for you that is so real that He does not even have to prove Himself. He already has. There is a friendship that is so complete with you and that friendship is so real that He says this, "Even though you are unfaithful to Me I will remain faithful to you". He will teach us you see because friendship is not inherited we have to learn it. Proverbs 18:24 "A man that hath friends must show himself friendly and there is a friend that sticketh close than a brother".

I found that there is only one person that can teach you to be a friend and that is Jesus Christ because He is the friend that was bruised for our iniquity. Jesus says, "I am your friend so I am going to stand in front of you and I am going to take the bruises for you". Faithful are the wounds of a friend. A friend stands in front of you.
