For the Love of a Brother

Proverbs 17:17 (NKJV) => A friend loves at all times, And a brother is born for adversity.

This verse isn't referring to just my blood relative brother, which I am grateful for. Maybe others feel this way about their family members but I just never was close to my family and hard times seem to drive them farther away. There is hope though. I have friends that have become like a second family to me. They are my life proof of this verse. They cared for me through my deepest depression and have become closer through the car accident we had in February. Others have stepped up through this, too, and have become like sisters.

Heavenly Father, thank You for the friends I have that are like family to me. I appreciate them greatly. As I complete this transition from my day program to college, help me to seek support from them in a way that is not over draining for them. Help me to see where else I can form these close relationships. Help me, Jesus, to have this kind of relationship with You. You died for me because you love me. Help me to spend time in appreciation with you. Amen.
