We have many friends throughout our lives. There are friends that
come and go. Some stay for a time and go on. There are those we
thought would be in our lives till the end and left for different
reasons.  And there are some that we suffered betrayal from
and others passed away. Then of course there are those who stand
the test of time and will be with us until the end.  


Friendship with Jesus is learned in all kinds of friendships good
and bad. And through this life we learn that it is so much more
to be not just "a friend" of God, but like Abraham "the friend of
God."  


We learn that no matter who stays or goes, Jesus never leaves us.
He can be safely trusted in, counted and relied on. There is only
cold obedience, dead works, empty wells of service without us
being "the" friends of God.  Friendship with God is a
growing love that only beautifully intensifies joyful service and
a life of peace, that enters into our eternal life. The
Friendship of God is with those that fear Him and love Him.
 


“If Christ is not all to you He is nothing to you. He will never
go into partnership as a part Saviour of men. If He be something
He must be everything, and if He be not everything He is nothing
to you.” ― Charles Spurgeon
