My Best Friend

I just wanted to do a quick post to try to get my thoughts focused on what’s right. :o)

I’m thankful for my best friend. His name is Jesus. I don’t always show how much I’m thankful for Him, but He still likes to hang around even though I act like a moron most of the time.

We’ve all probably heard about Him, but I actually got to meet Him about ten years ago. At the time I didn’t know exactly how great of friend He was going to be to me, but He’s been the best one I’ve ever had! (and let me tell ya, I’ve had quite a few since!)

Sometimes I get confused about who my friends are by how much they talk to me, hang out with me, text me, or email me. I get disappointed when I don’t get talked to a lot, but that’s when I forget about Jesus. Nah, he doesn’t text me, but how many friends have you had that writes a whole BOOK for you? That’s pretty cool. :o)

Jesus loves to listen to me talk to Him and He NEVER interrupts. When I’m wrong, He is not afraid to be honest with me, no matter how much I might not like it at the time. It gets rough sometimes, but always worth sharing my heart with Him in the end.

What makes Him such a good friend is His unconditional love for me. It really doesn’t make sense. I’ve tried it on other friends, but being me I just end up feeling hurt. I’m glad Jesus doesn’t let His feelings get in the way. He did some pretty awesome stuff for me. If He had let His feelings get in the way, I’m sure I would be in destruction right now.

I know I hurt His feelings when I take time away from us.

I’m a hypocrite.

I get upset when my other friends make promises to spend time with me or say they are going to do stuff with me, but I don’t think twice about it when I do it to Jesus. I’m sure I hurt His feelings when I leave Him hanging, but He’s always there for me when I come back.

I love to sing about Jesus!

He loves to hear me!

He loves it when I smile…and when I think about Him… I smile too. :o)

I hope He smiles when He thinks of me…

Thank you, Jesus, for being my best friend. Your Nessa doesn't deserve you.
