1. Ecclesistes 4:9. Two are better than one, because they have a good return for they work
The basic low of nature is that we do things to others and expect others to be the same way to us. If we are nice to one person, we expect that person to be nice to us. If our friend does something mean to us, or hurt us, it is in our basic instinct to be mean back and hurt them in return.
But that is not how God wants us to do. Throughout the bible, jesus has shown us to be nice and loving regardless of how we are treated by others. We are to endure hardships but not react to it like everybody else. The idea of being nice when someone has hart us, is not natural. It is rooted somewhere deeper and the only way we can achieve is that by asking God’s grace to be in us when the opportunity arises. This is what separates the Christians to other human beings.
Hopefully, God will ownable each of us to apply His words into practice.
Pray: dear God, I know I am far from perfect like Your Son Jesus. I ask that you teach me to become Him. To love when I am hated and to be kind of those who have hart me. I ask that Your grace may be in me.
2. Proverbs 12:26. A righteous man is cautious in friendship, but they of the wicked leads them astray.

We as human are created to be social beings. There is a natural urge inside each of us to want to be around other human beings. We live to interact and to socialize with other people, friends. Without friends our live will be so lonely and not as fun. Friend makes you laugh, makes you cry and makes you enjoy the little moments in life.
God put people in our lives to not only accompany us so we wouldn’t live our days in loneliness but olso to challenge us, to shape us to become better. From the mistakes our friend make and the successes we go through to together, we are maturing alongside one another. Notice also that, the people we keep around us can one day shape us. If we hang out with people of bed influence, those who amoke ang swears, for example. We too, sooner or latter will pick up the habbit of smoking and swearing. That is why, the friends we keep is essential to who you want to be as a person. If they don’t share the same christens value as you do, its good to fine people that do so you will always have the support you need.

Pray: Lord, thank you for all my friend. You have place them in my life for a reason. A pray that you atrengthen our friendship and you help us build positive bonds with each other. Please help me to become a better friend ang one that not only support others but also learn to love those around me acconditionally.
