The Five Qualities of Friendship

"Finally, all of you should be of one mind. Sympathize with each other. Love each other as brothers and sisters. Be tenderhearted, and keep a humble attitude." ~ 1 Peter 3:8

There are five qualities of friendship:

1. Harmony — We are to be of one mind, not necessarily singing the same note, but complimenting one another.

2. Sympathy — We hurt when friends hurt. The world is looking for friends like this.

3. Fraternity — We are to love one another like brothers. There is no brotherhood like the brotherhood in Jesus Christ.

4. Pity — If you want to be a real friend, you’re going to have to feel deeply. You’ll need to put yourself in the place of the other person.

5. Humility — Genuine courtesy is thinking of the other person’s needs before your own. You are less concerned with your rights, and more concerned about the relationship.

Begin to develop these characteristics of friendship in your life and watch God change your world!
