Here’s your daily dose of what matters most!
Do you feel like Jesus is your friend? Through prayer, scripture study, and seeking His guidance daily, you can strengthen your relationship with Him and feel His love.
Scripture
“Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.”—John 15:14-15
Quote
“One of the great tributes the Savior can give is to call us “friends.” We know that He loves with a perfect love all of His Heavenly Father’s children. Yet for those who have been faithful in their service with Him, He reserves this special title.”—Henry B. Eyring
