Friends


  For this post I'm going to veer away a little bit from art. 
  By the way, I'm so sorry I wasn't able to create a post recently. Me and my family went out of town to see family.

  I was at church camp before we left town, and I met someone there who I could easily say is super close to me. We met about halfway through the week. Once we met, we were almost never apart. 
  Friends are very valuable things in life. The picture above gives a definition of the word 'friends'. All of those reasons are very true. 
  Here is a bible verse on friends:
  One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother. (Proverbs 18:24)
  We all (hopefully) have that one friend, right? You're always texting each other, hanging out, and even if they're far away, they're the closest to you in your heart. 
  If you are a situation where you feel like everyone has abandoned you, there is always someone there, even if you don't realize it. Guess who it is...your father in heaven! He is absolutely the closest friend you could ever have. He'll stick by you when times are tough, he'll encourage you when you feel like giving up.
  Another thing. God wants to be your friend. All you have to do is accept his invitation. 
  
  So, are you friends with God? Have you accepted his free gift of salvation? If you haven't, here's a challenge: Find God. Read the bible. Become friends with your creator.
