The Best Way of Life Up Close and Personal

Someone Who Loves is Someone You Can Count On

They are patient, unruffled, steady, knowing “God is in control.”

They build you up.

They passionately work to see you living to your highest potential.

They listen … REALLY … listen.

They never presume to know what you need and always treat you as a free and noble person.

They respect you and act like they do.

Not irritable or touchy, they manage their anger, confronting squarely the problems that arise, dealing directly with the people and issues involved, without taking it out on you when you’re not involved.

They are tirelessly forgiving.

They hate evil … They delight in things that are good, true, and just.

They will be loyal to you no matter what the cost.

They always believe in you, always expect the best of you, and always stand their ground in defending you.

Their love can outlast anything.

THEY ARE SOMEONE YOU CAN COUNT ON … THE BEST PEOPLE FOUND ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD …
