I have decided that I want to be the kind of friend that would be considered uncommon in today’s world. There are a few people that I consider worthy of that kind of friendship, and I intend to pursue them. I am in the process of setting up meetings with them so that we can begin this journey of authentic friendship. I met with one of my friends the other day face to face, not by text or by phone, but face to face. He had been going through a tough time, but I didn’t know it because I had not been actively pursuing him. We need to be there for one another, and face to face friendships are really important to all of us as we do so. God wants to have that kind of friendship with us as well. I know that many of us will find this to be extremely difficult to believe, but God wants to have a face – to – face friendship with us.  I close intimate relationship where he shares His heart to us because that it what real friends do.
