Hello ,
According to a recent study, our circle of close friends is getting smaller. Over the past twenty years, the number of people we can
discuss "matters important to us" dropped nearly a third. The number of people who said they had no one to talk to about important matters more than doubled, to nearly 25 percent.
It's an
amazing conundrum; in a world of increased
communication
and higher technical advances, people feel more isolated and alone when it comes to real, legitimate friendship. The pandemic that we have been experiencing over the past 18 months has only exacerbated
"A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend
that sticketh closer than a brother." Proverbs 18:24
Even on days when it seems like our "friendship circle" is closing tighter and tighter, we have a friend in
Jesus!
Have a great day and God
bless!
