Friends are important in our lives because it helps us through our hard times! No better friends than those that share our love of Jesus! Our best friend! Which reminds me of one of my caregiver's favorite songs:

What a Friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer!
