Sirach signals to us that we must be careful of those we take for friends.
He says:
« When you make friends, don’t be too quick to trust them; make sure that they have proved themselves. Some people will be your friends only when it is convenient for them, but they won’t stand by you in trouble. Others will fall out with you over some argument, and then embarrass you by letting everyone know about it. Others will sit at your table as long as things are going well; they will stick to you like your shadow and give orders to your servants, but they will not stand by you in trouble. If your situation takes a turn for the worse, they will turn against you, and you won’t be able to find them anywhere. »(Sirach 6:7-12)
Let us be careful, of course stay away from our enemies, but let us be on our guard with those whom we take for our friends.
The only friend who never change and cannot abandon us or betray us is Jesus.
PRAYER :
Our Father who art in heaven, help us to be on our guard with our friends.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
