O How I Need You!

Friendship is something that we all need . Even the shyest of people and the ones that don't like to be around crowds need friends.  God did not create us to be an island.  From the beginning of time as far as we can see, in the Bible we read in the book of Genesis that God did not want Adam to be alone so he gave him a helpmate. Someone to help him out and share his life with.  We all need someone.  In example to write a story we need paper and pencil, but we also need our hands, our eyes and we could go on and on, or water needs dirt to make mud.  In order to create a harmony of something it takes two or more things.  Well, in order for us to be complete in life we need people as friends.   The Bible tells us that where there is a multitude of cousellors there is safety.  This just means that when we are surrounded with one person or more people,who are friends, that love us, help us and give us good advice we are in a safe place.  We need each other for many reasons.  Different friends bring different things and gifts into our lives.  Some bring strength while others bring joy, some will bring the worst in us, while other bring out the best.  There are friends that may just need our help and love.  Some friends are our confidents and know how to give good advice, but for whatever reason God has sent them into our lives, each person helps us to learn lessons in life and we do grow. 

Jesus had his friends, most of them were his disciples.  Jesus help his disciples learn many special things.
