Are you a runner or a stander?

I have to blog about this one!
Was doing my devotion this morning, actually this message was 5 days ago's message. @_@
I only read it today...but hey, it's never too late cuz I felt that God really spoke to me today!

There are two types of friends in our lives; runners and standers. At the first sign of trouble, the runner would bolt—abandoning you to whatever peril you were facing. But a stander would stick with you no matter the circumstances. Unfortunately, you wouldn’t know which kind of friend you had until trouble came.

2Tim 4:9-18 tells us about Paul's final days in his ministry as he awaited death, some who had ministered with him turned into runners and abandoned him to face execution alone; some had run off, but Luke was with him.

Sometimes we really don't know who our real friends are until we see them standing by us whenever we face problems. Rather than being concerned with what kind of friends we have, why not start with ourselves by considering what kind of friends we are.

Just thought I'd like to share it out! =D

God bless!
