A TRUE FRIEND EXHORTS YOU.

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: A TRUE FRIEND EXHORTS YOU.

Proverbs 17:17 KJV
A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

A true friend will help you do what you ought to do.

They will seek to bring strength to you.

Other times in life, we find ourselves facing things we would really rather not have to deal with, but which we know we ought to deal with. Things that we may not fell we have the strength to face, but we nevertheless need to face.

It is at such times that a true friend shows his or her true colors. A true friend will seek to strengthen you so that you might tackle those difficult things in life that you know you ought to do, but cannot somehow find the strength to do.

General Ulysses S. Grant had a man who was a true friend to him like this. His name was John A. Rawlins. He was the General chief of staff. It was to Rawlins that Grant gave his pledge that he would abstain from alcohol. When he broke his pledge, Rawlins went to Grant and with great earnestness pleaded with him and successfully persuaded him to reaffirm his commitment to turning away from liquor.

Look back and front and tell me who are your friend? What have they done for you? How many time has you found yourself broken down and sick because of friend. It is time you wake up and chose your friends rightly, remember friend can break you and friends can make you.

LET US PRAY
DEAR LORD JESUS CHRIST GIVE ME A FRIEND THAT WILL BE A BLESSING TO ME.
