GOD bless you, Jenise, and yours. May the LORD bless us all with His presence.

"As for me, I will behold Your face in righteousness; when I awake, I will be satisfied in Your presence." Psalm 17:15 BSB

A wonderful song," He calls me friend."

This verse from the suggested schedule to read stood out, and it sang a song, listen. . .

"I no longer call you slaves, because a master doesn't confide in his slaves. Now you are my friends, since I have told you everything the Father told me." John 15:15 NLT

And what joy that Jesus calls me friend!

His name is True King Lord of creation

"I no longer call you slaves, because a master doesn't confide in his slaves. "Now you are my friends" since I have told you everything the Father told me." John 15:15 NLT

"Now you are my friends."

Remember that we are friends of Jesus, the King of Kings, the LORD of LORD's, and we are children of the only GOD there is, the one who rules and reigns from Heaven above and holds us in His mighty Hand. Nothing can snatch us out of His Hand. Yes, be reminded, dear friends, that we are safe and secure because we are under His everlasting care now and for all eternity, and so we sing, He calls us friends.

"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand." John 10:27-29 ESV

GOD bless you all!

"And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS." Revelation 19:16 KJB
