The true meaning of Friendship

There is no
greater blessing
than an
understanding
friend,
who's there in
times of trouble
and on whom we can depend.

A friend who knows our every mood
And brightens cloudy days,
One who's slow to criticize
But quick to offer praise.

There is no greater blessing
Than a friend who always cares,
One who will remember us
In daily thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for your friendship! Love from - Name -

Sample Wording: Debut

Name of Debutante
On Your 18th Birthday

You were given precious life
Eighteen years ago today
Blessed with plenty,
And loved much,
You were set upon your way.

Now as you come of age and begin a lady's life anew
May you seek God's guidance and His strength,
In everything you do

For as He made you as precious
And as special as you truly are,
Keep in mind His plans for you
Are the best ones by far.

Know you'll always be the rose
He's crafted with great care
And that with prayer, grace and faith
You will grow all the more fair

Look ahead but don't forget to see others
Make this world a better place
Know where to look for good advice
For all that you will face

Live life with joy, keep your chin up high,
To childhood simplicity never say good-bye,
Always have great hope as trials you overcome
And keep in your heart that the best is yet to come.
