1 John 4:19 We love him, because he first loved us.

We always find it easier to make friends with someone if they are first willing to be friends with us or are friendly toward us. But if someone has an issue with us or is just plain unfriendly, making friends can be very hard.

God has loved us from the beginning and has continued to show us that love throughout time. We often turn away from Him and wonder why we get into trouble; but because He loves us He wants us to straighten our lives out and will encourage us to do so.

People may come into our lives and show us love and friendship without asking for anything in return. It just may be that God has brought them to you to allow you to know His ways and His love.
