A Holy Friendship

Something must be said about a Holy Friendship. A relationship that is like no other. A relationship that everyone desires, needs, wants, and longs for.


This relationship is healthy. This relationship means the world to both people.

This relationship is in depth, and totally and completely real 100 percent of the time. This relationship is one in which others mimic and desire. Closeness and honesty drive this relationship. No hidding, no lying, absolutely no gossiping, no back stabbing, no rummor spreading, no talking nasty about. Nope non of these.


There is mutual love and respect. There is rejoicing and celebrating together for each other. When times get hard, and we all know they do, they can lean on each other for comfort, support, and understanding.


A Holy Friendship, to me, is like mimicing Jesus to one another. It also means that no matter what the other person does...or lacks to do.....there is still love, like Jesus loves us. Jesus never stops loving us, he adores our fellowship. And as a woman after God's own heart, I must say: Stand up, women, resemble Jesus in every area of your life. Your friendships should display Jesus all the time. Just like a woman is to honor and love her husband, I believe that it is vital that we display that also to all of our relationships.


I get so frustrated about how Christian women display themselves. They gossip, behind others backs as if Jesus never died on the cross. They stir up trouble as if God never sees there hearts motives. All of us, including me, struggle with us. If anyone denies it, they lie.


" He went on ; " What comes out of a man/woman is what makes him/her unclean. For from within, out of men's/women's hearts come evil thoughts." Mark 7:20-21


God, change us.
Renew us, and transform us.
Teach us how to be like you in absolutely every area of our lives.
Let us love one another like you love us.
Let the truth, set us free.
Let us be conformed, to your word.

I pray Amen.
