Help me, God, to be a good
and true friend: to be loyal and never to let my friends down; never to talk
about them behind their backs in a way that I would not do before their faces;
never to betray a confidence or talk about the things I should be silent about;
always to be ready to share everything I have; to be as true to my friends as I
would wish them to be to me. This I ask for the sake of him who is the greatest
and truest of all friends, for Jesus’ sake.
