THE MOST BEAUTIFUL STORY OF FRIENDSHIP......LONGING FOR A FRIENDSHIP LIKE THIS....

 Job 2

New International Version (NIV)

¹¹ When Job’s three friends, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite, heard about all the troubles that had come upon him, they set out from their homes and met together by agreement to go and sympathize with him and comfort him. ¹² When they saw him from a distance, they could hardly recognize him; they began to weep aloud, and they tore their robes and sprinkled dust on their heads. ¹³ Then they sat on the ground with him for seven days and seven nights. No one said a word to him, because they saw how great his suffering was.

 Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite  were the real friends of Job.


Job was very luck to have such friends like these three men. When Job was suffering, they came to Job and helped him suffer.

 

That's the kind of friendship we are all longing for.

Hope we can still find some kind friendship like Job had.

No matter how heavy the sufferings are, 

no matter how hard the trials may be,

if I would have friends like  

Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite,

''LIFE'' would NOT be gloomy!

  

SATAN ALSO PRESENTED HIMSELF BEFORE THE LORD...............

Job 2

New International Version (NIV)

¹ On another day the angels^[a] came to present themselves before the LORD, 

 and Satan also came with them to present himself before him. ²

 And the LORD said to Satan, 

 “Where have you come from?”
   Satan answered the LORD, “From roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on it.” 

SO I SHOULD NOT WONDER IF I SEE JO-ANE NERI AVANCENA INSIDE THE TEMPLE OR IN THE CHOIR LOFT...SHE ROAMS AROUND TO LOOK FOR HER PREY...
BEWARE!

 
 SHE REALLY LOOKS LIKE A DEVIL HERE. THIS PHOTO WAS SHOT WHILE I WAS TEACHING. I JUST FOUND OUT THIS PHOTO IN MY LAPTOP AFTER MY CLASSES ONE DAY IN MY LIFE!

DISTANCE NEVER MATTERS

She's my best friend, LauraTrejo since 2007. She lives in Alabama. I live in the Philippines. 

How did we become friends? Well, because of technology, it's not difficult to be friends with someone you have never met from the time you were born. That's what had happened between me and Laura. We never met personally. I don't even know her personally. Same thing as she doesn't know me, too, personally. But we became friends, the best of friends, that when Snapvine was going to be shut down, Snapvine was where we became friends, I asked her to  keep in touch with me. I thought it was impossible to do that since I was very sick that time. I think, Laura, is the ONLY PERSON ASIDE FROM MY FAMILY WHO COULD ACCEPT A VERY UGLY PERSON LIKE ME ESPECIALLY WHEN I WAS BLUE ( as in having blue skin, I was a blue baby, and still a blue woman from time to time) AND HALF PARALYZED AND WAS TRYING TO BE ALIVE! Laura, from across the globe, came into my life to give me reasons to live, to explain why those things were happening to me. She even recorded some of her advice and inspirational speeches for me just to help me through, to help me survive those hard times.

Since then, I haven't done anything for my friend, Laura. I think, I am not a good friend to her. Even if she offered help, I ignored and refused because of my very hectic schedule. We have different body clocks and time to follow. I don't even have much time for socialization and for making friends. But my friend, Laura, is not a kind of person who is demanding and discriminating. She always understands my situation. She's always around for me. She always has time for me even if I don't have time for her. She's so cool, so thoughtful, but NOT bossy. I am so free with her. I enjoy my freedom within our friendship.

And that's how I know about friendship. Every party must enjoy freedom. Even if we are binded by the so-called friendship, still, each one of us has our own life to live. We must breathe. We must have fresh air. We must NOT be suffocated in any relationships that we are into.

Today, I felt like, I wanted to do something special for my friend, Laura.  So here it is

But she's a woman who is always full of surprises, so she surprised me with this

We are very far from each other. We are over mountains, oceans, and hills. But long distance is never a hindrance to express our love for each other. I thought, I would be the one to give her a special gift, but, she gave me more than I gave her. She always does.

If we can only spread this kind of love and friendship all over the world, there will be no conflicts and no wars. 

I just pray that our friendship lasts for a lifetime.
