Friend for Life

This week’s Friend for Life was a pretty easy pick.  After you read about Lori’s friend Michelle we think you’ll agree!

Michelle is the best friend a person could have.  She is generous, kind, giving, loving, intelligent, funny and every positive word you can think of.  When I am worried, she uses God’s word to help me give up my worry.  She prays with me and for me.  She gently reminds me to turn away from sin. She laughs with me and helps me share the joy of God’s Kingdom.   She is a devoted Christian and greatly helps me on my walk with the Lord.  She is a blessing.

Lori and Michelle… congratulations!  You are our Friends for Life this week on the Life 101.9 Morning Show.
