[slideshow]”A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out” Walter Winchell “Everybody wants to ride with you in the limo, but what you need is somebody who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down” Oprah Winfrey “Every business is built on friendship” J. C. Penney “Close friends [make] the music sound sweeter, the wine taste richer, the laughter ring louder” Judith Viorst, Necessary Losses “One friend in a lifetime is much; two are many; three are hardly possible” Henry Adams “Everybody’s friend is nobody’s” Arthur Schopenhauer “The best mirror is an old friend” George Herbert, Welsh poet and priest “You can always tell a real friend: When you’ve made a fool of yourself, he doesn’t feel you’ve done a permanent job” Laurent J. Peter “A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked” Bernard Meltzer, radio host and personality “My mother used to say that there are no strangers, only friends you haven’t met yet. She’s now in a maximum-security twilight home in Australia” Dame Edna Everage ReadersDigest.com March 2009 Yes, all these quoted people are ‘unchurched’ alright, put they all sound correct in their thinking. My Submission: The Bible speaks of a FRIEND that does not go or come, He is Jesus, The Lord. His love is total. He taught me how to be loyal, dedicated, faithful and trusting through the Holy Spirit. If putting all we’ve got into relationships seem not to be working out right for us, then there must be some other principle that is being unconsciously violated. This is what you & I must find out as ‘holy seeker and loving enquirers’. I think Core Values which are VIRTUOUS must be preserved while efforts be intensified to seek for deeper understanding on godliness and goodness. I hereby continue the ‘gold search’ into The Scriptures and Spirit of The Word. I shall keep you posted! Shalom. The Liteman T
