Bible verse
Proverbs 17:17
“A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.”
What it means
A real friend does not love only in the easy seasons but stays through the low ones, and family proves itself most when hardship comes. This is love measured not by warmth in good weather but by presence in the storm. It quietly describes the kind of loyalty we all long to receive and are called to give. Christ is the friend who loved to the very end, who calls us brothers and stays closer than any other. Be that kind of friend today, and remember you already have one.
Read it, pray it, live it
On The Living Bread you can read the whole chapter, save this verse, ask Simon to explain it, pray it over your life, and share it with someone who needs it today.
