Loyalty grows love

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Bella is our family dog, and she rarely likes to be alone.

Her favorite place to be is curled up either on a lap or next to a leg.

When she snuggles up next to any of us, the response from all of us is the same: we start telling this little fluffy thing how much we love her!

Her loyalty — her consistent presence — grows the love we have for her.

One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. (‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭18:24‬ ‭NIV)

Get some friends like Bella (make sure that they don’t all have fur).

Start with Jesus.

His — and their — loyalty will only cause your love for him — and them — to grow.
