Jesus wants a relationship with us! Think about your most rewarding friendships. You intimately share your hopes, dreams, worries, concerns, laughter, and tears. True friendships are solidly based in honesty, trust and love.
I am humbled to know that Jesus was tortured, killed, and laid down His life for a relationship with me, His friend. He rose again to give me eternal life -- an eternal friendship -- with Him.
When I read scripture, I often like to insert my name into the verse I am reading and pray the scripture to God...
"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for Donna, His friend." Thank you Jesus, my friend, that you laid down your life and died for me!
