I have always had several friends that have helped me in my journey. Most of my friends share portions of Heavenly Fathers words that I need at a particular time. I have also seen it operate through me too. We are all in this together and each friend contributes to our individual lives at certain times. I have been blessed by some wonderful friendships in my life. Some people don’t realize what impact words and actions have on another person, what may seem very mundane and ordinary could be an example of what to do for another. A friend of mine who taught me a lot lives many miles away from me now and has had some really difficult times. She has taught me much in the way of gratitude. She doesn’t have much in the material way of things but she is grateful for what she does have. That has helped me to become grateful even for my challenges, because she always seemed to have it much tougher than I ever did. I am thankful for her sweet spirit that has enhanced my life. God brought us together at a time when we needed each other the most. I continue to watch over my friend as her responsibilities seem greater now than they were 20 years ago. Some days I wish I could help her more, and then I realize that maybe I have just by listening and being there for her. Heavenly Father watches over all!
