If you start feeling like I’m conditioning our friendship on your 100% compliance with my wishes, please let me know.

I don’t want to be that kind of friend.
Love one another…

I find myself sadly in this. I will have to pray to be sensitive to that so that I stop doing it. Thanks for the great post.
