Brotherhood

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

We must always treasure people who have went the extra mile for us.... there many friends we can have but most are acquaintances.... but the value of a brother is much higher.... in life we may not have so many.... yet God wants us to treasure them... never take them for granted... and be there for them in their most difficult time... the sad truth is we only want to be there for people in their success yet when they go thru the fiery trial we often let them go to go thru alone.... if you want to have friends... you must learn to be a friend... and crisis brings out the true nature of the friendship.... and its not wrong to have many friends or many acquaintances.... but GOd wants to give you close brothers that would stand with you in adversity... meanwhile we must learn to be a brother in someone elses adversity...

Proverbs 18:24
A man who has friends must himself be friendly, But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
