This resonated with me so much. I have lost friendships through the years but He brought sweet, unexpected friends when I didn’t expect it. Thank you for sharing your amazing relationship.

God is always good! He’ll bring them around when you’re positioned for the blessing of healthy friendship 🩷

Woo! My God, this was so much more than I expected. Thank you so much for introducing us to your Bestie! Blessings to you both

Glad you enjoyed it!

She reminds of my BFF...esp when she says "What had happen was..." I miss my BFF so much. She passed in 2021 right after she turned 51. We had been friends since babies. Praying God will bless me with at least one person who can not replace her, but be a trusted confidante. 🙏🏾

[@NonaNotNora]

So sorry for your loss. Praying for that person to come into your life and pick up where she left off. 🩷

You realize a lot of your friendships were birthed from a place of toxicity or insecurity... I been so worried about and feeling guilty about this season of exclusion and isolation and a need for total restart.

[@NonaNotNora]

It’s important to evaluate the relationships in your life and figure out if they’re life-giving or just familiar! 🩷

Truly enjoyed this episode. Friendship and community with others is very vital. 🙏🏽 for God ordained friendships currently in a season of isolation and loneliness. My husband is literally my only friend.

Wow! When I tell you this is an on time message... I was just thinking about this yesterday! GOD IS SO AMAZING! "Things got a little bit different, friendship-wise, when I got saved for real... it wasn't so much because of them, but I changed." 💯💯💯

This really hit me! Yes I have my husband who’s been my best friend for 20 years, but I don’t have any friends. I’ve been there for many, showed up, was a shoulder to lean on, but that didn’t create friendships. The one that actually did form, was extremely taxing. I was tasked with being to her what her husband and mom weren’t being. I tried my very best to keep up with all of her demands and expectations, but in the end, it just wasn’t good enough. I honestly believe in my heart that the Lord created me to be a friend to many, but not to have a friend and I’ve become ok with that. It was so hard to accept, but I’ve accepted it. When I hear people talking about having friends, my heart literally rejoices for them, because I know the value of friendships. ❤

[@NonaNotNora]

It's a gift to have the capacity to be a friend to others! I pray God surprises you with a no-strings-attached kind of friend that pours into you the love that you've shown so many others. 🩷

[@RosegoldC]

It’s crazy that I’ve always been the best friend to others but I have never had a soul be a TRUE best friend to me this video has put a lot in perspective I am a middle child so I am accustomed to being alone … I think that some ppl are natural loners I love the idea of girl groups but I never really belong when I’m apart of them ❤️ I’m hanging on to hope tho 😂

[@rbaj2024]

This is awesome. God sent this discussion at the right time. I have experienced a lot of things that you talked about.

@@thekimberlynproject I'm figuring "it" (fill in the blank) ALL out for myself now. Co-creating New Steps that are hard because it's different, with God through the Holy Spirit. Not spiritually bypassing. 😊 Let's continue walking by Faith 🚶🏾‍♀️
