I guess I've never had a close friend to really bond with down deep. I have a few now and I enjoy my time with them very much! Each one has a different life but all love God. Yet I still find myself drawn to you Tami as wanting to have a deep relationship (sounds corney uh?) with. Maybe because we seem to be on the same page with our emotions and thoughts in our heads. I hope our busyness doesn't stop us from what I think God would like us to be as friends.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110201646735808964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29122445.post-44890428881501309562008-08-14T17:00:00.000-05:002008-08-14T17:00:00.000-05:00OK, I'm still here reading!!Another great post.

I think part of the intrigue of relationships is a mutual understanding that each are on a journey toward the same goal. To be more like Jesus. Although their paths may be quite different, great friends will inspire each other and propel growth faster and more accurately on the journey.<BR/><BR/>How could I be silent on this one? Great post.<BR/><BR/>LindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29122445.post-77988480163121049122008-08-12T02:37:00.000-05:002008-08-12T02:37:00.000-05:00I think sometimes the relationship comes easy beca...I think sometimes the relationship comes easy because of common interest or just being fun together. But other relationships take time and risk. They are the ones where someone challenges me to think or to know what I'm saying or to grow in some way. Those are often the God-ordained relationships to develop me, and I hope that I take the risk more often than refuse it.Miriam Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18418972749843611051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29122445.post-82387557439281701542008-08-11T19:26:00.000-05:002008-08-11T19:26:00.000-05:00That was a lot of big deep questions.

Must be a God thing that brings us together because I'm clueless on my own.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05811548306583601019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29122445.post-37940276542834251282008-08-11T12:09:00.000-05:002008-08-11T12:09:00.000-05:00Excellent questions, Tami.
