A True Friend Indeed
A True Friend Indeed
August 3-9
“Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart and the pleasantness of a friend springs from their heartfelt advice.” Proverbs 27:9
Devotional: One of the most startling occurrences for you and me is to receive a phone call late at night or early in the morning. Due to the timing of the phone ringing that late or early, there is always some form of anxiety because we feel that the call is not something very pleasant. However, when we look at the caller ID and recognize that it is a friend, we might still be concerned, but it does ease the worry somewhat. We might still wonder why someone is calling so late at night or early in the morning, but we answer because we know them. After all, a true friend will always take your call regardless of the time. Beloved, we have a true friend in the Lord Jesus Christ, one who never slumbers nor sleeps on us!
Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for this day and thank you for giving us the opportunity to call upon your name; for we recognize that there is no name above your name! We glorify the good of who you are, and we give you all the honor and all the praise! Now Father, help us to offer ourselves to you as we offer ourselves to others; allow us to be the kind of friendship that you have modeled for us and help us to make ourselves available to those who are in need and be attentive to the cry of others, in Jesus name I pray, Amen and Amen!
Reflection Question: Who do you feel comfortable in calling on at the midnights of your life?
