Job prayed for his friends even though they had shown him their true colors. And when He did this, You blessed him. Help me to be like Job - to turn the other cheek and actually serve friends who disappoint me. I ask for that kind of compassion and dedication.

May I prove myself worthy of such loyalty. Thank You for being with me in this storm, through these special friends.
