\"Finding<\/p>\n

When I was little and in need of a friend, I remember my mother leading me from house to house all around our neighborhood looking for a girl my age <\/strong>who would play with me.<\/p>\n

As an adult, I’ve noticed that my Father is the One who has found me my closest and most precious friends<\/strong>. Not only has He given me a lifelong friend in my husband, but He has also brought into my life several wonderful, godly women who are truly kindred spirits.<\/p>\n

Some of these sweet friends I see quite often<\/strong>. At church. Piano recitals. Basketball games. Or homeschool events.<\/p>\n

Some of my friends I get to see only once in a blue moon. When celebrating the wedding of one of their children or ours. Or maybe meeting up for a family campout. Or perhaps just exchanging photos and family news at Christmas time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Friendship<\/p>\n

But I am so grateful for each one of them<\/strong> and for all the wonderful memories we share. Their wise counsel and faithful friendship and words of encouragement have blessed me richly, no matter how (in)frequently I get to enjoy their company.<\/p>\n

Happy “National Women’s Friendship Day”<\/h2>\n

Since today is National Women’s Friendship Day<\/strong>, it seems the perfect time for sharing a coloring page celebrating good friends:<\/p>\n

If you’ve been blessed to have a kindred-spirit sort of friend, today would be a great day to tell her so! If not, pray that your heavenly Father will bring such a friend into your life. And that He will help you recognize her when you see her!<\/p>\n

Incidentally, this week’s verse is also available in Spanish:<\/strong><\/p>\n

More to Color<\/h2>\n

If you like to color, then come back again next week. I post a new coloring page every Sunday.<\/strong> Or you can follow this link to download any of the designs I’ve posted in the past: Free Christian Coloring Pages<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Prefer a bound collection? Then check out my Color the Word<\/a> series. I designed these richly-detailed, Scripture-based coloring books<\/strong>. with grown-ups in mind. But they can be enjoyed by all ages. They’re even available in Spanish<\/a>!<\/p>\n

For those who enjoy journaling as well as coloring, my devotional journals<\/a> offer the best of both worlds.<\/p>\n
