“You are my friends, if you do what I
command you,” (John 15:14).
A friend is a person whom one knows well
and is fond of; intimate associate; close acquaintance. Friends serve because
they care. Friends of Jesus will go with Jesus and will give ones life for the
poor, the outcast, the homeless and the lost. Friends, on the other hand, know
that God always loves them, and in this love, they are free to serve one
another joyfully.
How many of you get joy from being
judged? How many of you get joy being condemned? Mother Theresa once said, “if
you spend all your time judging people, there is no time left to love them.” Do
concentrate on our walk with Jesus and don’t waste our time trying to figure
out about others and just leave the judgment up to Him! Jesus knows all our
failings and shortcomings and yet He loves us. Do we lose God’s love?
Jesus said, “This is my commandment:
Love one another the way I love you.” What Jesus has for us is LOVE. We are His
friends. He loves us.
