Jesus is my best friend

Jesus is my best friend. He is by our side as a faithful friend, he brings comfort and hope. But how can we have Jesus as our best friend in everyday life?

First, we need to cultivate a personal relationship with him. Like any friendship, this requires time and dedication. We can begin the day by praying, giving thanks for his blessings and asking for his guidance.

Daily Bible reading is fundamental to knowing his will and teachings. In passages like John 15:15, Jesus calls us friends, showing that he desires an intimate relationship with us.

I no longer call you servants because the servant does not know what his master is doing. But I have called you friends because I have made known to you all things that I have heard from my Father.

(John 15:15)

In addition, it is important to talk to Jesus throughout the day to share our thoughts, joys and concerns. He cares deeply about every detail of our lives. When we face difficulties, we can trust him to listen to us and give us the strength we need to overcome obstacles. Jesus understands us better than anyone else, because he went through human suffering and temptations, but without sinning.

Showing love to others is another way to strengthen our friendship with Jesus. He taught us to love one another as he loved us. By practicing empathy, forgiveness and compassion, we reflect the character of Jesus in our actions, bringing us even closer to him.

Finally, trusting Jesus in all circumstances is essential. He promised to be with us until the end of time. Knowing that we have such a powerful and loving friend gives us peace and security.

Jesus is truly the best friend we can have!
