As I read my devotional this morning I was reminded of the importance of deep rooted friendships. As we go about what seems like one busy day to the next, we need to make sure we aren’t letting the relationships that matter fade and die. It takes work to maintain deep friendships just like it takes work to build a marriage. God never intended us to do this life alone, we are designed for relationships. It’s relationships that will outlast anything else we build here on Earth.

It’s equally hard to recognize when it’s the sin in our world that makes things bad and that is not God’s plan. When things don’t go according to our plan we’re quick to question God why instead of seeking out His plan. We need to take joy and find peace in knowing that God is there with us through all things and has a calling for us if we’re willing…

    Who’s Your Best Friend?

    ByTim Nolte
    When you simply hang out together … when you carve out time for your most important relationship… when you make a point of sharing the little day-to-day moments… the results of that in your marriage are profound. – Biblical Secrets to a Happy Marriage This morning during my devotions time I was challenged with how I think about my wife. I’d heard other couples talking about their spouse being their best friend but I’d never really given it much thought myself and sort thought friends were in a different group than my wife. My best friend was a guy that I have served with in ministry for years and was the best man in my wedding. However if there is anyone in my life that should…
