Trustworthy Friends

Friendship is needed for every human. Every heart needs friendship. It is said,”Friendship is a ship which never sinks. It is true, it you get such friends be grateful to God and to them. true friends are the friends, when you have nothing to give them, when you are in need, when difficulties surround you and when the world goes out of your life and they come in to make you feel God’s love is great, they are the true friends. Therefore it is appropriate in saying, “Birds that live in a lake will fly away when the lake dries up, but the lotus in the same lake dies with the lake. That’s the commitment in friendship. If you have trustworthy friends be thankful to God, for every life in this world is painted by God’s own hand. He pained your friends’ life, so that whichever color is missing in your life, you may take from them. All beautiful flowers beautiful the garden, in the same way all friends put flavor in our lives. Trustworthy friends are like a golden sunbeam, chase the clouds away and bring some precious moments to treasure. In the biographical memoirs of st. John Bosco (vol.1) Louis Comollo said to John Bosco before his death: “Friendship does not consist only in complying with a friend’s request during life but it also means carrying out after death whatever has been promised.” We know how they carried it out even after death. So have trustworthy friends and enjoy your life to the brim.

I Ask For a Little O Lord I don’t ask to have faith like Abrahem But I ask you to increase my faith to remain faithful to you Lord I don’t ask to have strength like Samson But I ask for a little strength to carryout your mission Lord I don’t ask to have wisdom like Soloman But I ask for a little wisdom to draw people towards you Lord I don’t ask to have a call as the call of Samuel But I ask you to help me listen your calling Lord I don’t ask to have a vision like Zechariah But I ask you to help me understand your will in my life and remain close to you.

Quotation of King Darius “He who knows not, and knows that he knows not, is simple. Teach him. He who knows not, but knows not that he knows not, is a fool. Shun him. He who knows, but knows not that he knows, is asleep. Wake him up. He who knows, and knows that he knows, is wise. Follow him.”- King Darius of Persia. While reading this few sentences for the first time, I was delighted but latter on when I reflected upon them, a question triggered my mind. ‘What about man who knows not but still pretends that he knows all?’ The answer is; ‘he is a deceiver.’ He deceives others as well as his own self.
