Facebook Friendship

Tuesday Matters-October 6, 2020
Everyday Delete

​What? She deleted me on Facebook? What? I thought we were friends. I think most of us who use Facebook have either been deleted by someone or we’ve done the deleting. 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 kinda 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.”  And we must all know… “Love is kind.”  We also know love doesn’t demand its own way or keep a record of being wronged.  Having a good friend is a blessing but being one, I think the blessing might be even bigger…everyday.
