FEELING COMFORTABLE - FEELING LOVED

A couple of good friends landed round tonight.We were delighted to see them, as they had been out of the country working abroad for the last two years.We had so much to talk about.We laughed and chuckled heartily about some of the things they told us and we brought them up to speed with the goings on here with us. I was amazed at the differences in culture they experienced and immediately thought about the things which we have access to every day, which we take for granted. At the end of the evening we vowed to keep in closer contact, even though this couple would be continuing to travel the world over the next three years.
However, when they had gone, I realised just how comfortable and easy the whole evening had been and that true friends simply pick up where they left off.
It made me realise what a blessing it is to have Jesus as our best friend, because even when there may be days when we don't seem to follow as closely as we ought, He accepts us just the way we are and lets us feel comfortable and loved again.
