I know some of you are hurting desperately today. Your
friend could have been family or a spouse or another loved one. You poured out
your heart like the expensive perfume poured on Jesus’ feet. You held nothing
back. You gave it your all. You told secrets, you cried tears, you encouraged
and felt encouraged, all the while thinking this is just like heaven. But it’s not beloved. Only our relationship
with Christ is heavenly.
Oh beloved, rejoice today! You are loved and adored by the
King and Savior of the world! And because our Savior went to the cross, that
one moment of broken fellowship secured our unbroken fellowship with Him
forever! No matter what, you have a Friend Who will stay with you to the
end. He’s going to be with you in the good times, in
the bad times, in the refreshing days and in the oppressive days as well. Always.
Jesus is your friend always. And that’s worth shouting Hallelujah and
coming out of hiding for!
Psalm 43:4 There I will go to the altar of God, to God—the
source of all my joy. I will praise You with my harp, O God, my God!
Romans 15:13 I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill
you completely with joy and peace because you trust in Him. Then you will
overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Psalm 25:14 The LORD is a friend to those who fear Him. He
teaches them His covenant.
Romans 5:10 For since our friendship with God was restored
by the death of His Son while we were still His enemies, we will certainly be
saved through the life of His Son.
