KINDS OF FRIENDSHIP-DAY-9 (THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A FRIEND –  Series cont’d)

UNFAITHFUL- JOB 19:14-19 – MY RELATIVES HAVE FAILED, AND MY CLOSE FRIENDS HAVE FORGOTTEN ME. THOSE WHO DWELL IN MY HOUSE, AND MY MAIDSERVANTS, COUNT ME AS A STRANGER; I AM AN ALIEN IN THEIR SIGHT. I CALL MY SERVANT, BUT HE GIVES NO ANSWER; I BEG HIM WITH MY MOUTH.  MY BREATH IS OFFENSIVE TO MY WIFE, AND I AM REPULSIVE TO THE CHILDREN OF MY OWN BODY. EVEN YOUNG CHILDREN DESPISE ME; I ARISE, AND THEY SPEAK AGAINST ME. ALL MY CLOSE FRIENDS ABHOR ME, AND THOSE WHOM I LOVE HAVE TURNED AGAINST ME.
