THE GREATEST FRIEND OF ALL

“Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.”

John 15:15 KJV

Pastor Joseph M. Scriven wrote “What a Friend We Have in Jesus”.  I love these words.  “Have we trials and temptations?  Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged; take it to the Lord in prayer! Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share.”  What a precious Friend Jesus is to us.

Jesus is not only our Saviour, He is also our best Friend and He will never leave us, not even for a minute.  Are we His friend?  Are we doing things that make Him happy or are we doing things that hurt Him and break His heart?  If ever someone deserves to be happy, it is Jesus.

Heavenly Father, I pray for all those who are discouraged and lonely.  Please comfort and encourage them.  I pray for every pastor who is preaching the good news of our risen Saviour.  I love You, Heavenly Father.  I love You, Jesus.  I love You, Holy Spirit.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
