• He’s the one

  The wonderful thing about Jesus is that He really is the best friend a person could ever have.  For no matter what is happening in your life, He is right by your side.  He understands everything you’re going through at a heart-to-heart level.  He experiences everything, all of it, with you — every minute, every moment, every breath — whereas even a dear spouse, parent or best friend simply can never do that — even as much as they desire it.  But Jesus can — right there beside you.  And so as much as I love my dear Sam, (whom I do love with such a fierce love, I could spend every minute of every day with him and never quite get enough), Jesus is still the One.  He’s the One I love most, prefer most, desire most, delight in most, for He — only He — can give me fullness of joy.
