Okay, then, pucker up! How we greet and treat one another is a mark of the sweetness of Christian fellowship united in Christ. How sweet is the gift of friendship. Friendship is often borne out of work together, striving side by side (v 9). Fidelity is a marker of a good friend and person of integrity (v 10). Friendship is made by common affinity (my fellow Jew; v 11). However it comes about, friendship is to be celebrated and tenderly cultivated. As sweet as a tender kiss from a child. Loneliness is an epidemic. Name 2-3 friends and determine to appreciate them this week. Send a card to three friends just to say "I appreciate our friendship." Are you willing to cultivate friendship?
