Proverbs 17:17:
“A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.”
Fair-weather affection is easy; anyone can love you when things are convenient. Real friendship reveals itself in adversity .. the friend who stays when there’s nothing to gain from staying, when the relationship costs something.
Think of one friendship in your life defined by that kind of loyalty. Thank that person today if you can. And ask yourself honestly: am I that kind of friend to someone else, or only a fair-weather one?
Prayer: Lord, thank You for friends who’ve stayed through hard seasons. Make me a friend like that to someone else. Amen.
