You are my friends if you do what I command.  John 15:14

Today you are invited to consider what it means to you to be called a friend of Jesus.  How does such a relationship feel to you?  Are you comfortable with it or does it make you feel uneasy?  What is God commanding you to do – or not to do?  How are you responding to that command?  Share your feelings with God today.  Ask Him whether He wants you to do things in a different way or to do new things or stop old habits.  Tell Jesus how you feel about being His friend.  Ask Him to remove any sense of disbelief and so to draw you closer to Him.

May God bless you as you grow closer to Him today
