Covenant Friends

Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?

(Amos 3:3)

Why is it hard to find covenant friends? The answer is simple: It is hard to find someone who can fully understand your life’s journey. To fully understand someone, it may involve at least one of these three possibilities:

• It could be because you both have gone through similar life experiences. A true friend understands your pain because he has gone through similar experiences. Even though they are not the exact same experiences, these experiences in life give two individuals a common perspective.

• Two people have a mutual attraction to each other’s personality. In other words, it’s the chemistry between two people.

• It is a friendship that is developed over time, and it becomes a strong bond.

  
  

Our covenant friends are intimately interconnected with us. They will always be on your side to help you meet your destiny, and one of their main goals in life is to see you succeed. True friends rejoice at your success. They are not envious or intimidated by your achievements, because you cannot be envious of people you love. True friends are not seeking to get something from you to promote themselves. They want to give more than to receive. You can share your innermost thoughts with them. I believe that if you have at least two true covenant friends, you are a blessed person. You do not need a lot of friends, but you do need a few good ones.
