A true friend is one who helps you see the truth, even if it hurts. This doesn’t mean we can go around stabbing our friends with hurtful words. Rather, it means being up front with friends about important issues, raising gentle questions with tact and love, never gossiping or putting them down to others behind their backs.

 

Real friendships don’t just happen, and they aren’t maintenance free. Ask questions both in conversation with your friend and when you’re alone: “How would you describe our friendship?” “What is God doing in each of us, separately and together?” “How can we help each other become all God wants us to be?”
