"FRIEND OR FOE?"

It is very easy to make enemies!
But to make friends it is not! Why?
I asked a person who was working with somebody else for several years,
if they were friends, and his answer was: No, we are just co workers!
So, my question is: What was the missing ingredient for a friendship?
What do we need to have to be considered: Friend?
Respect? No! I don’t think so, because I have seen people fighting and
cursing themselves triple X and the next morning: Friends again!
So, I think it has to be: Truth and Trust! You cannot be a friend of
somebody you do not trust and be lying to you! Right?
Even marriage it is based on these two meaningful words!
When one of them is broken, marriage goes to the “drain”.
You cannot be friend of somebody you HATE either!
That is why Jesus said: LOVE YOUR ENEMIES!
Bless them that curse you; do good to them that hate you, and pray for
the ones that persecute you. so you could be the children of your Father
which is in heaven; He makes the sun rise on the evil and on the good
and sends the rain for the just and for the unjust also. But ye therefore
perfect even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Mathew 5 -44 and 48.
Jesus is also called: Son of David!
David was a shepherd chosen by God to be king of Israel, and after killing
the giant Goliath, King Saul let David to live in the palace. The king had
a son named Jonathan and David and Jonathan became good friends.
Jesus is our “Jonathan” that wants us to live in the palace of his Father!
He is longing to be our friend!
As Son of David, He offers us a material kingdom!
As Son of God He offers us the spiritual kingdom called: Heaven!
Won’t you like to be His friend?
Truth and Trust are necessary for a friendship!
Do you have your trust in God? Do you truthfully love Jesus?
If you do, just open up your lips and say it!
I love you Jesus! I want you to be my Lord!
IT IS DONE! You were always in His heart! Now He is in yours!

“This is my commandment: That you love one to another as I have loved you.
There is no greater love than this: That a man lay down his life for his friends.
You are my friends if you do whatsoever I command you!”
John 15-13.


PRAISE THE LORD!
