Oh the priceless meaning and value of friendship!
Friday the 13th was a very important day for us in our journey together. The stress and heaviness of our present situation is sometimes indescribable. These last 10 months have been quite the challenge.But aside from the burden we are facing, we count ourselves especially blessed with the close and tight-knit circle of our supportive friends.
Friday 13th 2 of my closest friends for nearly 2 decades, drove in to be with us for this day.
The following quotes truly describe the gift of friendship. Friendship is truly something that you cannot put a price tag on. The bible teaches us in Proverbs 18:24 that there are actually friends who are closer than family. We are blessed to have such friends.
Proverbs 18: 24: NIV * One who has unreliable friends soon comes to
ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

A friend is one who walks in when others walk out.
