Who needs friends?

“The Samaritan woman said to him, ‘You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?’ (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)” John 4:9

Fitting in. It is tough, even as an adult. As a kid, you think adults must not deal with the nonsense of being cool or having to work to have friends. But sadly, that world still exists. It has always been a constant struggle of mine to feel as if I fit in, to feel as if my ideas are accepted, to feel as if I am not an odd duck, to feel value in who I know I have been created to be. I am thankful for a small group of friends who know me inside and out.

But even more than those special friends, I am thankful for Jesus who asks "Would you please give me a drink of water?"  I have called Him my best friend since I was very young. He is always willing to console the tears, dance with the joys, and listen to the mundane. Always.

Encourage a friend today. Send a note, give a text, or schedule a coffee “date”.
