Proverbs 17:17 says, “A friend loves at all times.” Even science shows how closely friends are connected.

Scientists studied the medial prefrontal cortex, a part of the brain that helps you process interaction with other people. The results revealed that your brain is more responsive to your friends than to strangers—even if the stranger has more in common with you.

From the beginning, God created humans to have a relationship with him and relationships with each other. The bond that you share with your friends is a blessing. Thank God for your friends and try to be a good friend in return.
