17 A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. ~ Proverbs 17:17
A friend will stick by you when times are easy, but as soon as things become difficult, a friend will abandon you. They won’t be there for you. But when times are hard, a brother (or sister) will be there for you. They’ll fight for you and with you. A friend may be there when times are good, but what happens when things get hard? When the good times are over? They bail.
Jesus starts out as our friend, but as soon as adversity comes our way, He is still there. Why? Because He is now birthed into a brother. Jesus is waiting to grow His relationship with you. All you have to do is spend time with Him. Pray, worship, read your Bible, seek His face. Jesus may be everyone’s friend, but unless you seek Him out, how can He become your brother?
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Seek Your Brother.
