What do YOU think?? Monday, November 03, 2003
blue text means I like it. it is significant to me. The subject of "Friends" has been in my mind for quite some time, along with the subject of relationships. Some good things to read and dwell on are: THE TRUTH ABOUT TRUE FRIENDS "You may be surprised to know, as I was, that the words friends, friendly, and friendship appear over a hundred times in the Scriptures. God says a lot about friends. As I read all the verses and think about true friendship, I believe it all boils down to four things. First, friends are not optional; they're essential. There is no substitute for a friend--someone to care, to listen, to comfort, and, yes, occasionally, to reprove. True friends do that best. Second, friends are not automatic; they must be cultivated. The Bible says, "A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly" (Prov. 18:24, KJV). Samuel Johnson wrote: "One should keep his friendship in a constant repair." As with trees, friendship needs cultivation. Third, friends are not neutral; they impact our lives. If your friends lead good lives, they encourage you to become a better person. If your friends lead disreputable lives, they lead you down the same path--or worse. Scripture says, "Be not deceived: Bad company corrupts good morals" (I Cor.15:33). So choose your friends carefully and wisely. Gossips usually gravitate to gossips. Rebels run with rebels. You want to be wise? Choose wise friends. Fourth, friendships come in varying degrees, some of whom play more significant roles in our life than others. We have many acquaintances, some casual friends, several close friends, and a few intimate friends. Acquaintances are people with whom we have spasmodic contact and superficial interaction. We just skate over the surface with acquaintances. 'How are ya?' 'Fine, fine! Great!' (I'm really not fine, but I can't tell you that because you're only an acquaintance.) Casual friends are people with whom we have more contact, with whom we have common interests, and with whom we may have more specific conversations. Every once in a while we will even seek the opinion of a person who is a casual friend, although there is still a safe distance between us. Close friends are those people with whom we share similar life goals and with whom we discuss the hard questions. We do projects together, exercise together, socialize together, and sometimes even vacation together. Intimate friends are those few people with whom we have regular contact and a deep commitment. We are not only open and vulnerable with these people, we anxiously await their counsel. Intimate friends are just as free to criticize and to correct as they are to embrace and encourage, because trust and mutual understanding has been established between them. All of these levels of friendship are important, but the most important, of course, is the last. Those who have no intimate friends have to be the loneliest people in the world. All of us need at least one person with whom we can be open and honest; all of us need at least one person who offers us the shelter of support and encouragement and yes, even hard truths and confrontation. Sheltering trees, all!" From "David" by Chuck Swindoll What do YOU think?? by the way, 3 weeks ago was Prom #2, aka the UT Masquerade Ball.
