Friends








A friend is
someone to
whom you can
pour out your
heart,
both the chaff
and the wheat
knowing that a tender hand will take it and gently sift it,
keeping that which is good,
and with one well-meaning breath
blow the rest away.

Sharon,

You are heaven sent!! You have given me a safe neutral place to talk some things out. You have reminded me over and over the last few weeks to continue to listen and trust His voice. So thank you for letting me just pour out my heart...

Love Ya

I have always loved this quote and have kept my printed copy of it since the early 80's.

I hope to be that kind of friend.

I love to have that kind of friend!

Praying for you, Friend!
Holly

I really like this quote, Sharon. Thank you so much for sharing. I think I really need to start writing down some quotes that I like and commit them to memory.

Blessings to your week ahead.
