Friends of God

I have been fascinated by the idea that we are/can be friends of God. The Bible teaches this, and several current songs celebrate it. I wonder whether Jesus had friends in his twenties (He must have) , what those relationships were like, and how they changed when He came out as God. But I aspire to be like Abraham, whom God called His friend. This seems like such an equal basis for a relationship with God.

Do you see yourself as a friend of God?

  1. Interesting concept, how to balance being a friend of God while at the same time having an awesome fear of God.
