Friendship Friday

Are there difference types of friendship? If so, what are the levels of friendships?  Are the differences of friendship important? One site lists the following levels of friendships; acquaintance, casual friendship, close friendship, and intimate friendship. * Source: Institute in Basic Life Principals

 As one of my  older friend often shares, "Not everyone can handle your stuff."  I think only a few trusted friends are able to give you wise counsel. It is important to know who you can trust.

I love the description of Intimate Friendship: "This is the deepest level of friendship where friends invest in one another's lives with the goal of helping each other mature in godly character. Honesty, humility and discretion are requirement of an intimate friendship. Comfort one another through trials and sorrows; pray diligently for one another."

 What do your authentic friendships look like?
