Met a friend and went to church with her and on the way had a talk. Later joined in another guy from our church and I don't know him at all. From the short conversation we had, I can conclude that they really need God in their life. Although they are christians and they may have accepted christ long ago, but they have lost their first love and is now a worldly person.

This is a sad thing to comment on. To see a christian sinking deep into the darkness and able to do anything about it. I hate to see people being astray from God and being justifying themselves in whatever they have done. I wish to help but it is not my duty to tell them, it is the job of their leader and I am not spiritual enough.

After the service, saw her walking to the opposite busstop. I don't know why but I went over to talk to her.Got to know her problem and try to encourage her. I am not good with friendship and I still have to do it. I did not make my words convincing enough and all I can do at that time is to pray for her. This is the first time I pray for someone about their friendship which is an area I stumble all the time and still is affected by one friendship.

Anyway, the point is that friends can be the best person to be with and also the most hurting one. A christian friend in particular can be even more hurtful tha a worldly friend. Nine years of friendship now becomes a hurting one and is affected her for a long while and is getting serious. I too faces the same problem but nine years of friendship and being close friends just makes it a blessing. How I wish 'our' friendship can be as long lasting but sad to say it can't. Hope that God can heal this inner injury and peace us.
