"I have called you friends"__The Lord Jesus
John 15:15

Life is sometimes hard and pain is universal touching everybody but
Jesus is always there for us, with open arms hand over heart, saying
I will never abandon you amidst your trials. Jesus is loyal ~ a Friend
who can be counted on in the hard times ~ always there with you,
forever.

The Lord Jesus knows us by name, thinks about us, prays for us ~ and
loves us. He has an Eternal-Life plan for our lives and He's always with
us as that plan unfolds. Jesus never sends us out alone. He goes before
us to clear the path. He pushes aside the thorns and thistles that block
our progress and with a loving voice He says come along with Me, you
and I, we'll travel this road together.

Jesus is our Friend. And brave too. He's the kind of Commander that leads
from the front where the pain is ~ not the kind that sends you into harm's
way while He stays safe to the rear. The Cross in the Middle was where
the Medals Of Honor grow and His Cross was unselfish heroics, steadfast
courage, stout-hearted fortitude ~ founded in Love. Jesus is our Brave
Leader who goes before us saying "Follow Me."

And Jesus Saves too.

I walked in the rain agonizing about my sins before Jesus saved me, but
now I no longer fear a Holy God rightly offended by my sins and demanding
the claims of Justice be paid. Now when the Father looks at me, He sees
His Son Jesus and His Cross, and He stamps Paid In Full on His ledger
book because The Old Account Was Settled Long Ago when I knelt before
Heaven's Throne Of Mercy and Jesus from His Throne Of Grace saved
me. "What a friend we have in Jesus. All Our sins and griefs to bear."
Thank You , Lord Jesus.

The Lord Jesus not only saved me, but He has a plan to save the world ~
this makes good sense since "God . . .loved the world" and Jesus promised
He'd make "everything new." Jesus my Friend is King Of Kings and
Lord Of Lords and He's going to rescue the human race from Sin and Evil.
Christendom now looks forward to a bright cheerful victorious future
thanks to His plan to save the world. Thank You Lord Jesus for saving the
human race.

The greatest treasure I have ever encountered has been the friendship of Jesus.

[PeterR]

2Co 6:2  (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

Time of grace comes striding end. For those who have not accepted the gift of Faith during this period, it will soon become impossible.

Mat 24:36-51  But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 

Time to ring the bells, tomorrow may be too late.

1Th 5:4-11  But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
