A FAITHFUL FRIEND
Sirach 6:14-17 (not in Protestant Bible)
A faithful friend is a strong shelter,
And he who finds one finds a treasure.
There is nothing that can take the place of a faithful friend,
And there is no way to measure his worth.
A faithful friend is a medicine of life,
And those who fear the Lord will find him.
He who fears the Lord guides his friendship rightly,
Because as he is, so also is his neighbor.
Personal Challenge
Life can be a challenge to navigate. It is full of twists and turns, ups and downs, and yet plugs along whether we are ready or not.
