True friendship is hard to be found, especially in times like this where individualism seems to be more important than looking after each other. Being a good friend isn't always easy because it can make us vulnerable. But building real friendships helps us to be who God wants us to be and makes us look a little more like Jesus every day...

1 Corinthians 15:33 33 Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.”
John 15:12-15
12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
Proverbs 12:26
26 The righteous choose their friends carefully, but the way of the wicked leads them astray.
John 15:12-15
12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
