Proverbs 17:17 A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
This is a short verse but a a message. We learn her that a true friend is always there for you and most of the time closer than a family member. Brothers usually fight with each other growing up but if something happens to one the other will be there to take up for him. A true friend is a constant source of love and are usually available all the time. A brother is a family member and may be as close and is usually drawn near to help in a time of trouble. A lot times we will confide in a friend before we will a family member. There should always be great love in the family because it is family.We should always be ready to stand up for family and friends in any situation.
