  1. Be open, honest, and understanding.
  2. Open your heart and be completely honest.
  3. Allow the other persons to do the same and be understanding to their feelings.

    2.Restore Gently.
  4. Be open to being corrected, if you did wrong, let them tell you!
  5. If you are doing the telling, do it with love.


    3. Surround yourself with Godly Friends.
  6. It's okay to reach out and influences pre-Christians.
  7. But also have Christian friends to open up to and help you grow.


    4.Crying Together.
  8. Don't be afraid to cry in front of someone, it shows your vulnerable and you trust them.
  9. Don't be afraid to let someone be vulnerable with you. Be the shoulder they cry on!


    5.Laugh A Lot.
  10. Don't be afraid to be happy with your friends.
  11. Be silly and laugh...life is too short!


    6.Accountability.
  12. Be there for your friends. If they have a problem, help them.
  13. They will be there helping you with your problems too!
  14. PRAY! Don't be afraid to pray with and for each other!
A Couple of Bible Verses:


Better is open rebuke than hidden love. Wounds from a friend can be trusted, but an enemy multiplies kisses. Proverbs 27:5-6


Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted. Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:1-2


Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work: If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who fall and has no one to help him up!
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10


Bottom Line: It's an awesome thing to have friends, you can open up to them and go to them for comfort and everything!
