FRIENDS FOREVER

JOHN 15:15b NLT

“Now you are My friends, since I have told

you everything the Father told Me.”

JESUS-STYLE

FRIENDSHIP

What a friend we have in Jesus,

all our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry

everything to God in prayer!

What peace we often forfeit,

what needless pain we bear,

all because we do not carry

everything to God in prayer!

John 15:15 NLT

2 Timothy 2:13 NLT
