Matthew Wright was the best of friends. He was my best friend and little brother. He is my "Spiritual Friend".

Spiritual friendship is one of the most profound and powerful ways the Spirit of God communicates his presence and power to us as human beings. Spiritual friends are not easy to come by, they are truly a gift of God - given on occasion to hungry souls who are diligent in their seeking.

Matthew...

"You are the last, best friend I will ever need.
I shall never want another.
Like the gift you are from God,
I will love you always,
little brother".

Matt, Shawon, and Robert playing pool, May 2012.
