Prayer for August 1, 2025

I am so grateful, Loving God, for the friends that have been a part of my life.  So many of them were with me for small, but important, times in my life.  They were the childhood friends who were there after my brother died, or the ones who greeted the new kid in school multiple times.  Those friends who have become family that are still a part of my life.  All of them, O God, remain special to me and my life would be incomplete without them.  So again, thank you for my chosen family.  May I work to be as important to them as they are to me.  Amen
