4-22-2011. . . . A Friend of God!!!! (repost 09)
"And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God." (James 2:23 KJV) Abraham was called ‘a friend of God’. If God were interviewed today and were asked, what kind of friend is (insert your name)? What would His answer be? After careful and honest consideration of what you think God’s answer would be, if you’re pleased, good for you! Stay consistent and improve. If on the other hand, you find you’ve come short of the measure of being ‘a friend of God’, be encouraged! Start today; this very second. . .do something about it! There is nothing we can do about our past but there is plenty we can do to improve today.

PRAYER: As a direct result of my concentrated efforts, may the answer God gives about me today be better than His answer yesterday!
Ps 138:8 The LORD will fulfill [his purpose] for me; your love, O LORD, endures forever--do not abandon the works of your hands. (NIV)
