the ultimate friend...

   Friendz are great, aren’t they? Friendz make you laugh when you feel like crying. Friendz bring you chocolate when your diet says otherwise. Friendz reassure us that we’re going to live through our present crisis. What would life be like without friendz? 

   This month at Creative Friendzy we celebrate the love of friendz by sharing the love of Jesus with them.

   Do you have a special friend to whom you could show love? How about a
Beatles Hits for Kidssmall rose tied with a ribbon and a card placed secretly on her desk or car seat? Or maybe send a singing telegram to her home or office to show your appreciation.

   Outlandish? Maybe.  

   Jesus demonstrated His lavish love for us in that while we were still sinners, He died for us.  He paid my sin’s penalty. That’s ultimate friendship!  

  Grateful to Him who covered my sin debt!

new friendz, new life

   Before I started coming to Creative Friendzy, the only friend I truly felt I had was my husband. I have always had such a hard time making new friends. I did not always like “putting myself out there”. So, my husband suffered! 

   He had to be my best friend, my shopping buddy, my friend I would go to when I was having a bad hair day...not to mention my husband and all that involves in itself! 

   Then came Creative Friendzy. The women and Bible study in that class opened so many new doors in my life, and they are still opening new ones for me to go through. I have learned how to dive into new experiences, and I am LOVING it! 

   I feel like I have so many new friendz that I take a little from each of them to learn from to make me a better person. Some have shown me how to just open up and talk to everyone without fear. Others have shown me how to be more caring and involved with the people in my life. I so look forward to going to class and seeing what else I can get to change me into an even better person than I feel I am becoming...if that makes any sense! 

   Did I mention the joy my husband feels for the Creative Friendzy class? The load that has been lifted from him is just enormous! Yes, I still get emotional...but now I have a community of friendz that totally understand and just get emotional with me! 

   I could never tell you the appreciation I feel for the Creative Friendzy class for all they have done for not just me but for my family as well. Thank you so much!
