In prosperity our friends know us; in adversity we know our friends.
-J. Churton Collins
A quick comment:
This one is easy. If you have millions of dollars, everyone wants to be your friend and be associated with your riches so they too can prosper. But are these true friends? When you lose everything, then whoever still sticks by your side is a true friend.
Sometimes, to our surprise, we are without friends when we lose it all, or when we don’t have much. This is normal and should teach us to cherish the friends we do have when we are in this condition, for they are true friends.
What to do with this famous saying
Do not necessarily think that everyone hanging around you, if you are rich, is a friend or a person just hanging around you for the money. Instead, let the true test of adversity make it clear, should adversity befall you for a season, regarding who your friends really are.
