Over the years I’ve collected a number of message cards that friends have given me. You know, the business-sized cards that have a pretty picture with a wise saying, Scripture verse, or declaration of friendship? Each one holds a special memory and message that continues to bless me each time I read it.

Today, instead of my monthly book review, I thought I would share some of these encouraging messages of faith and friendship in hopes of bringing you a blessing as well.

FAITH 

~ EVEN ON THE DARKEST DAY, HIS LIGHT BREAKS THROUGH TO SHOW THE WAY

~ HOPE LOOKS BEYOND THE SHADOWS OF TODAY INTO THE SUNSHINE OF TOMORROW

~ TRULY MY SOUL WAITETH UPON GOD ~ FROM HIM COMETH MY SALVATION

FRIENDSHIP

~ THE BEST AND MOST BEAUTIFUL THINGS IN THIS WORLD CANNOT BE SEEN OR EVEN TOUCHED. THEY MUST BE FELT WITH THE HEART.

~ THE SUN NEVER SETS ON GOOD FRIENDSHIPS

FAMILY 

WHEN YOU’RE LONELY, I WISH YOU LOVE

WHEN YOU’RE DOWN, I WISH YOU JOY

WHEN YOU’RE TROUBLED, I WISH YOU PEACE

WHEN THINGS ARE COPLICATED, I WISH YOU SIMPLE BEAUTY

WHEN THINGS ARE CHAOTIC, I WISH YOU INNER SILENCE

WHEN THINGS LOOK EMPTY, I WISH YOU HOPE

I pray you’ve been encouraged by these simple and yet profound messages. Do you  have a token of faith or friendship you’ve held onto through the years? If so, I’d love to hear about it in the comments below.
