Jesus Our Dear Friend
Friends are very special in life. Friends are there for us when others might abandon us. Friends love us and accept us just the way we are. True friends don’t just take from a relationship but give to and add life to a relationship. Friends listen to us. We can go to our friends and tell them anything and they are still there for us no matter what. If a friend has a serious need, you will drop everything and go and help your friend.
Jesus is our dear friend. We can go to Him any time of the day or night and He will listen to us, when others don’t seem to care. When troubles or discouragement impact our life we can go to Jesus and He will lift those burdens from our shoulders. Jesus is a faithful friend. We can count on Jesus to keep every promise he has made to us. Jesus loves you and me. No greater love does one have than to lay down his life for another. He did that and more. He took the guilt and shame of our sins and nailed them to the cross. Jesus is our dear proven friend indeed!
“I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.” John 15:15 NIV
