To treasure a friend
February 06, 2020
To be somebody
is to treasure a gift from a friend
as a proof of covenant love
and to make it last forever
in the joyful and reverent way
it is being used.
To be somebody
is to treasure a friend more
than any gifts you are given.
It is to appreciate that a friend
is more valuable than anything else.
To be somebody
is to treasure friendship
like a paradise garden,
a colony of heaven.
When you are somebody
you live a life of transformation,
being transformed from glory to glory,
turning ordinary people into great people.
To be somebody
is to be a faithful friend
who sees the greatness in the other
and treasure that greatness in your heart.
