What Does Facebook Friendship Mean To You?

Monday Matters
Everyday Delete

I think most of us who use Facebook have either been deleted by someone or we’ve done the deleting. Hey this is Debbie Griffith with Everyday Matters. Sure reasons to un-friend a Facebook friend like:  you're cleaning up your Facebook, you don’t really know a person or someone is malicious; are valid reasons to “delete” someone. However, to un-friend someone because you’re hurt because they didn't meet your expectations, is unkind. It’s like kicking someone and running away. Your intent is to hurt them because you've been hurt. There’s no justification for that.

What is friendship all about? What does God say? Look at Proverbs 17:17; “A friend loves at all times.”  From 1 Corinthians 13 we read; “Love is kind.”  We also know love is patient, not rude and doesn’t demand its own way. Love keeps no record of being wronged and it endures through every circumstance. That's what being a friend is all about in Facebook-Land or wherever…everyday.
