A Good Reminder and Challenge from Our Daily Bread – Being a True Friend

https://odb.org/2017/05/16/being-a-true-friend/

I want to stand by the way, waiting for weary travelers. To look for those who have been battered and wronged by others, who carry the burden of a wounded and disillusioned heart. To nourish and refresh them with an encouraging word and send them on their way. I may not be able to “fix” them or their problems, but I can leave them with a blessing.

This point is really subtly challenging. It really blew me away.

What if we tried to first bless people rather than only trying to fix them?  Would our lives and actions look different?
