Friends (An Ode)

They make you smile. They make you laugh. They make you think. They know you best. They see your worst. They’re sad when you’re sad. They’re scared when you’re scared. They hold you up when you’re down. They have the power to speak into your life. They are there when you need them most. You’d be lost without them. Friends. "'Abraham had faith in God, and God was pleased with him.' That's how Abraham became God's friend." (James 2:23)
