Friendship Friday

My friends ... awesome wives, moms,
and teachers. 

A true friend accepts you, prays for you, prays with you, loves you, and encourages you to live your best life. Our best life is to love God and love others. 

Friendship Friday

"Your fitness journey isn't always about you ...
inspiring others along the way is just as important."

For years, I avoided fitness classes, I had preferred walks at Radnor Lake, walking on a track, or for the solitary exercise on a elliptic machine. More recently, I have discovered the joy of developing fitness buddies. Friends offer encouragement to keep going. I love that they welcome you back with a smile. 

Every so often, we meet after class for coffee.

My friends  are such a source of wisdom, encouragement, and laughter. I treasure the time I spend with them. On Wednesday, Jill hosted a lovely lunch.

Find friends who will encourage you!

"Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing."
1 Thessalonians 5:11

Encouraging Friends

"We talk too much about "guilt by association"; we ought to talk about "goodness or virtue by association". It works both ways. Wise persons will seek the kind of friends who will lift them up and encourage them to be their best, to set high standards, and to give themselves unselfishly to others. Our companions rub off on us. Many people can bear witness to the fact that their lives have been lived on a higher plane than would have been possible had it not been for the example and encouragement of a friend.”

Encouraging Friends... We met for breakfast this morning.
