Sharing in sorrow makes me more 

cautious. 

I wish could see cloud figures.  I lost my imagination! 

"What hurts more your leg or your pride?" You are not broken. 

Your excuses disappear when you realize you are sinning against not just a fellow human but your God. 

I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. (Psalm 119:11 NIV)

Friendship is complicated. I must take what is given and give all that I can. With no expectations and much patience. Friendship is from God. He provides when needed.

Prayer is depending on God.

There are those that compete for the experience and those that compete for the award. It is those that embrace the experience that win the award.
