We were not meant to do this life alone. God intended for us to have others to lean on. We need those who can lift us up, pray with us, pray for us and encourage us. Being good friends with Godly people doesn't just happen by chance. We must pray that such people will come into our lives. And then when we find them, we should continue to cover the relationship in prayer.
For a long time I felt as though I didn't need friends. To continue reading, please click here to head to Woman to Woman Ministries.

We all need friends, Jenifer, when I was a Pastor's wife, I found that it was not easy to have a close friend. It took me years to find friends. We need Christian women who will come around us and pray for us and we can pray for them. God has given me a wonderful group of ladies in the church that we attend, it's a joy to laugh and pray with them.
