The Better Friend

This book, written by Grace Valentine, a young woman who shares her life of loneliness, searching for friends. Middle school, high school, college and independent living are reflected by her need to find her "community." Friends should build you up. But the culture we live in is obsessed with popularity. It is easy to be an energy giver rather than an energy taker. Joy comes from blessing others, shining and sharing Christ's love. 

I did appreciate her emphasis on depending on Jesus as her friend.

"Once you seek Jesus as your friend you have a friend for life who creates miracles unexpectedly."
