What a Friend we have in Jesus

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. ~John 15:13

Today I get to go have lunch with some of my friends, both of whom I haven't gotten to spend time with in quite a while. One lives in Alabama and has come up for the weekend. The other, although she lives in the same town that I do, has a crazy busy schedule- in addition to her full time job, she is a volunteer firefighter and is looking into doing broadcast journalism as well, yet still finds time for church and family. So, I'm feeling very excited about seeing them. They are part of the group of girls who I was best friends with in high school. I still love them dearly, but as our lives have taken us down different paths, we have grown up, apart, and are not as close now as we were then. Like I said, I love them; but would I die for them? Maybe, but I'm not sure. Jesus loved me enough to die for me. He is the greatest friend a person can have.
