Daily Devotion - Friendship

Good morning family. Remember the old saying, to make friends one has to be friendly, it is still true and effective today. To be a good friend, we must love others, respect others, understand people, and care for people. Have a heart to help when there is the need for it. Jesus said, no longer do I call you servants ... but I have called you friends. That is why we can cast all our cares on Him. In other words, it's not just what we can get out of a friendship but what can we give into it that will be of benefit to the friends involved. That is so wonderful, Jesus calls me His friend. That is what I call friendship with benefit. I am a friend of God and so are you!!! Everyone, if you're feeling what I'm feeling as you read this, If you feel God's presence so close that you're being overshadowed right now then please join me in this brief prayer...
Thank You God for making me your friend. Amen!!!
