If you are wondering what countdown I am on about, I will fill you in...We have been doing a 14 day 'counting blessings' countdown. Day one was all about the Blessing of life and yesterday, we were grateful for family.
Today, I want us to look at the people who are our cheerleaders and those who will tell us the truth even when it is not the most desirable thing. I have heard it said a million times that no man is an Island and guess what, no one has proved otherwise. If you have more than 5000 friends on Facebook, eeeer...that isn't what I am talking about that is more of 'funs' hence the term 'fun page'.
There is so much I could write about friends but I won't. You need to look at your phonebook and the situations you have been through and evaluate who really has been a friend and vice versa.I do not necessarily have a lot of people I consider friends and that's not to say the rest are enemies but they are rather acquaintances. What I am grateful for, is my close friends who have been there in the background, people who don't mind my success or failure, people who actually return my call. People who whether we are in constant communication or not, once we meet it's like we have never been apart, "we hit off like old times". I celebrate people whose faith has carried me through when I was a in doubt. I celebrate people who desperately got on their knees on my behalf.
So as you count your blessings, do remember your true friends and let them know that they are more than just friends but family. Appreciate them! Most of all look up and thank God for those angels.
