Lasting Friendships

"There is a friend who sticks closer than a brother" (Proverbs 18:24).

Do you have a friend(s) who sticks closer than a brother? If so, you are a blessed individual. You know the kind of person I'm talking about.

Now let's consider the Friend Who sticks closer than a brother--the Lord Jesus Christ.

• He came that you and I might have life abundantly (John 10:10)
• He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14:6)
• He died for your sins and mine (John 3:16)
• He sent His Holy Spirit to guide you and me into all truth (John  16:13)
• He will never leave you, nor forsake you. (Hebrews 13:5)
• He is coming again so that where He is you may be also (John 14:3)
• He is coming soon (Revelation 22:20)

This is a friendship that lasts because it was initiated and is sustained by God Himself.
