Monday, November 30, 2020 A Perfect Friend "So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God" (Romans 5:11 nlt). Someone has said that a true friend stabs you in the front, not in the back. We all need friends who will tell us the truth. For instance, maybe you're getting ready to leave the house, and you're not sure whether you're dressed OK. So you ask some friends, "Does this look good?" "You look awesome. Let's go." But then you turn to another friend and say, "What do you think?" And your friend says, "I think you need to change." That's a true friend. Those other so-called friends don't really care about you because a real friend will tell you the truth. Though we've done nothing to merit it, God has made us His friends. The Bible tells us, "So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God" (Romans 5:11 nlt). |
