Who will really be there...

As you experience any tragedy, you will come to realize some people do a whole lot of talking, and absolutely no doing.

You will encounter people who like all of the world, especially the social media world, to think they have done so much when what they have really done is post a status and tell a white lie. They will be so dramatic people will think they have been so involved and yet, they have done nothing but talk a good talk, to everyone else.

You will encounter these people whether it be death, sickness, divorce, job loss, etc. They can be friends, family, co workers, you get the drift.

You will know the truth and God knows the truth and when people say something about all this person has done, you will kindly let them know actually, they've talked a good game and thats about it. Then you'll leave it be. Because, this person will then play a victim and act like you are the one lying. Trust me on this.

With that being said, I have a handful of people that I know I can count on. They will text me if they think anything is out of sorts and you know what, they are awesome. I would tell you who they are but, they aren't the type to brag. They just do and they are awesome. They make up for the glory hogs, the storytellers, the boasters, the ones that do nothing but talk.

I pray you find your true friends and realize the ones talking the good game are not worthy of your anger, resentment or poor wishes. God will handle them. He is one of those you can count on that doesn't require the bragging.

Proverbs 27:2 "Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips."
