BFF (Best Friend Forever)

All little girls travel in packs at one time or another. And they organize their friendships into several groups...friends (those who are in and out on a daily basis)...good friends (those brought together by situations which may or may not last)...best friends (those who are with you in good and bad experiences for a length of time)...and Best Friends Forever (those whose existence is so wrapped into yours that the two of you are a trapestry that has no beginning and no end). While we want our BFF's to last forever, life has a way of severing these relationships often breaking our hearts and making us sad. Prehaps they weren't really BBFs or prehaps we grew up and out of the relationship. Either way there is a hole in our hearts where there was once love and acceptance...a sense of belonging...a completeness.
Well..cheer up...there is great news!!!! There is One who is truely your Best Friend Forever...He will never leave...never disappoint...never betray...never die...never critisize. Jesus is the best friend you will ever have!! Scripture even tells us..."He calls us FRIEND". Jesus is the one who fills the hole left by life. Jesus is the identity we should strive to emulate. Jesus is the one who "gets" you. And that is a God-given promise.
Need that kind of friend? Look no further. You will not out-grow Jesus and He will not forsake you. What a friend we have in Jesus!!!!
