A True Friend


Are you honest with your friends? Or do you merely tell them what you know they want to hear?

It can be so awkward to tell the truth with those we rub shoulders with on a daily basis. It’s hard to say something that you know someone is not going to like hearing.

But if that person is someone we say we love – who deserves our honesty more?

A true friend is someone who says the hard thing – does the hard thing – and loves the hard way in gentleness, respect, and authenticity.
