June 2 - Proverbs 18:24

Some friends play at friendship

but a true friend sticks closer

than one's nearest kin

Proverbs 18:24

 

How's the weather today?

 

I ask that because if the weather is fair, I wonder if it's reminding you of too many people -- Indeed, do you know any people who "play at friendship" and are "fair weather friends"?

 

Now, the self-satisfying way to read this passage is to point at other people and judge whether they are fair-weather or true. The more challenging and most accurate way to read this is: Am I fair-weather or true?

 

Which relationships do you need to work on?

 

In Christ's Love,

a guy who hopes he's occasionally

a captain in a storm
