John 15:12-15 NKJV
[12] This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. [13] Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. [14] You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. [15] No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.

Five Principles of friendship.

+++In all the various types of relationships that you have, you can always have a friendship in the midst of them all.
+++Some people have relationships but have no friendships.
+++Everyone cannot be your friend but you can be a friend to everyone.
+++Everyone was not a friend to Jesus, but Jesus was a friend to everyone. He was a friend to His enemies and even those who betrayed Him.
+++Jesus had many friends and showed Himself friendly. May the Lord continue to keep you His friend and use you to demonstrate to others what it is to be a True and Godly friend.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!
