If you have five solid friendships in your entire life, you have been blessed with a lot! Remember that friendships are the hardest ships to sail, but they are worth it. ~ Bill Greguska

John 15:13-15  “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.”

Easy Ways How To Make Friendships Stronger!

What Are Real Friendships?

If we think that If you believe that friendships will grow naturally, there is some truth to that, but in reality, it takes time, effort, energy, sacrifice, patience, and love to make friendships thrive! I have noticed in my life that when I nurture a friendship by giving the other person respect, their time and space, and focus on their interests more than dumping my problems on them or being less self-centered. I have noticed that those relationships tend to go better, last longer, and become stronger. Are you ready to build strong friendships? Then read more about the how-to below. ~ Bill Greguska
