3.12- Close friendship is a treasure. Spontaneous calls.

 3.12-

Close friendship is a treasure. Spontaneous calls. We get a surge of good internal chemicals. Endorphins. Cortisol. Serotonin. When in name and sometimes a picture comes up. All this could cost a lot but for many of us it is free. Thank you God for close friends.

Romans 1.

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ [g]for you all, because your faith is being proclaimed throughout the world. 9 For God, whom I serve in my spirit in the preaching of the gospel of His Son, is my witness as to how unceasingly I make mention of you, 10 always in my prayers requesting if perhaps now, at last by the will of God, I will succeed in coming to you. 11 For I long to see you so that I may impart some spiritual gift to you, that you may be [h]established; 12 that is, that I may be encouraged together with you while among you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine. 13 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, that often I have planned to come to you (and have been prevented so far) so that I may obtain some fruit among you also just as among the rest of the Gentiles. 14 I am [i]under obligation both to Greeks and to the [j]uncultured, both to the wise and to the foolish. 15 So, for my part, I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.
