neglecting your best friend…

Remember ‘BFF’? Is that, as they say, still a thing?

Thinking about friendship in Augustine and Lewis lately, these words struck me this morning…

“No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.” ‭‭John‬ ‭15:15‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Considering all He has done, is doing and will do for me, He is, no doubt, the best friend I could ever imagine.

But when we’re out of touch with someone for a while our connection can wither. In our relationship with our Lord, let’s be diligent to maintain our connection. He said “abide in me.”

Open the Scriptures, pray, abide.

Drink in the nourishment of The Vine.

Daily.

You’re gonna eat aren’t you? Then take spiritual nourishment as well! Nourish your friendship with Jesus.
