Friends (2)

Dear God, there's a kid at school who is always alone. He doesn't eat with anyone, doesn't meet anyone between classes, doesn't look at anyone. I've said something to him a few times, but he doesn't really answer. It's like he doesn't want friends. He must be really lonely. Should I tell someone, a teacher or coach maybe? Lord, I've been lonely, too, and I know how much it hurts. If you were in my place, Lord, you'd find a way to be is friend. Guide me to find a way to be a Good Samaritan, Lord, and to lighten his load if I can. Amen. -Jack

Dear Lord, thanks for letting me have such a good time last night. It's fun being with a bunch of classmates, cheering for the team and just hanging out. Thanks for giving me such great friends, too. I feel like I can talk to them about anything-serious stuff and "whatever stuff"-and they'll be there for me when I need them. I'll be there for them, too, because that's what friends are for. -Zach
