You are my friends if you do what I command you.
(John 15:14
NRSV)
God comes to us as a friend in Jesus Christ. Jesus said in John 15:15. "I do not call your servants
any longer... but I have called you friends..." In my morning devotions, I am reminded that Jesus
is my friend in my life and in my ministry. I could not be a minister or help people with out
Christ's support. I could hold the hand of a dying member without the inner strength of Christ. I
could not lead a diverse congregation of people without the Spirit of Christ in me. And I certainly
could not love other people without my friend Jesus Christ. God comes to us as a friend in Jesus
Christ.
Dear Jesus, may I be a close friend of yours today. Amen.
