Christ your Friend

A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. Proverbs 18:24

As we live this Christian life there is nothing so sweet as having friends who can help and understand along the way. Friends encourage our hearts when we are down and they correct us when we make the wrong choice. Friends bring words of encouragement and care that shakes off disappointment, despair, and discouragement.

A faithful friend will love you when you are not your self; when the chips are down; when you are not the most spiritual person on the block. For true friends have been around the block… they’ve lived the ups and downs of this Way and so they understand and show their care.

Sometimes though… our friends let us down or… we let them down. Sometimes there are misunderstandings… sometimes time and distance blurs the closeness and oftentimes we find ourselves alone when we badly need a friend.

Sometime are friendships are swept away to allow us to recognize our one true and everlasting friend… Jesus Christ. For in the midst of trouble our Friend is there. When tears wet our pillow… Christ is there! When the sun warms our face and joy fills our heart… Christ is there! Through the good and the bad… the ugly and the sad… Christ is there… he’s with you!

Christ is with you each and every day. He’s your friend regardless… we understands, he cares, and he prays for you all the time. He’s your friend and so truly you are never alone… you are never alone… he can fill your loneliness!

You ever have a friend in Christ. You are blessed with having him as your best friend!
