Jesus is the best friend any of us can ever have
No one can love like Jesus
No one can forgive like He does
No one else can save us
No one else has the power to change us from the inside out
He knows all about us, but loves us still
He knows all about the challenges we face—He faced them too—and cares
Other friends aren’t perfect, He is perfect in His person and in all His ways
He is wise beyond measure
The greatness of His love was made evident in His willing sacrifice for sin
The strength of the surpassing greatness of His power was revealed in His resurrection from the dead
Other friends may fail us, He never will
Other friends may desert us, but He will never leave us or forsake us
Though He may not give us all we want, He knows what’s best for us and Will always give us what we need
In Him we can find true peace
In Him we can possess a true and lasting joy
In Him we have a certain hope, even when all other hopes prove futile
He is a friend to all who will but trust in Him—-no matter age or gender or color or standing in this world
The richest amongst us is nevertheless poor if He doesn’t have Jesus for a friend
The poorest amongst us is nevertheless rich beyond measure if He has Him
When we breathe our final breath it’s a friendship with Him that will bring us safely home to heaven
And we’ll marvel at Him when we see Him face to face
