For My Friend

This blog entry is a tribute to my best friend, Rebekah. I don't really have any other friends left from high school anymore. I don't know where they all went or if I really ever had any. There are a few aquaintances and that is all.

This is for my friend. Like the bible says in Proverbs 17:17 "A Friend Loves at all times....." (NIV) And this is so true of Rebekah. She knows absolutely everything about me, the good, bad, and the ugly and loves me just the same.

Our lives are very different. She has a career and is single. I am a married, stay-at-home mom. But one thing remains- we are best friends. She called me just this week out of the blue to see how I was doing. And she does not know it but it really made my day!

To know someone else is out there thinking of you, how comforting. Hearing from her makes life a little more worthwhile in this hectic life of mine.

I thank God for giving me our friendship. I never had a sister growing up and always wanted one. God is so good, he gave me a special kind of sister in Rebekah.

One final verse: Ecclesiastes 4:12- Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themseles. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken. (NIV)
