"Part of having a best friend means BEING one" quote by Joey on
the show Full House
I am a person who takes friendship very seriously and personally. This
scripture below completely wraps up the above quote!
Proverbs 18:24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and
there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
Just because you know someone does not create a friendship. You must be the
friend that you expect them to be. Futhermore, there is a friend that sticks
closer than a brother. If you have a relationship with this friend
"Jesus" then how much more should we cherish this friendship. It is
more than just "Jesus is my friend," we should try to be a friend to
HIM as well. Meaning not just expect HIM to be here for us when we need HIM but
I want to be there for HIM when HE needs me. You say: "Does God really
need me?" ABSOLUTELY!! Remember HE said that we are the light of the world
through HIM. Of course, HE could probably find someone better than me but I
cherish the fact that he WANTS me.
Let us try to be a friend that God can trust. One that HE will call on when
HE needs a work done, one that HE remembers when HE throws a blessing party
that there is an invitation for me, one that when I am going through a hard
time that HE wouldnt have it any other way but to be there and hold my hand
through. I want to invite HIM to dinner with my family, be proud to tell others
about my best friend, take HIM on vacation with me....
Jesus said: John 15:15...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.
THE BIGGEST PART OF HAVING A BEST FRIEND IS BEING ONE!!
