A Gift From God

By Kay Heitsch

A true friend is a gift from God. ~ Relationship Quotes ~
My Aunt Carmeleta is a gift from God. In reality, Aunt Carmeleta and I are not blood relatives. She was married to my mom's brother, Fred, and Aunt Carmeleta married Ken when Fred died.
It has never mattered; Aunt Carmeleta and I have stayed close. In my teen years, AC gave me some great advice. When people talked badly about me, she said, "Just ignore them and be yourself." Those words were simple, but they meant a lot. It didn't matter, Aunt Carmeleta accepted me as I was. She liked me being me!
Our Bible verse says. The heartfelt counsel of a friend is as sweet as perfume and incense. A sweet friendship refreshes the soul. Proverbs 27:9
Aunt Carmeleta's friendship and advice have been sweet over all these years. Aunt Carmeleta has been a true friend and God-given gift.
