Day 206 of 365

Friends, Not Servants

“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 15:15 (KJV) |

What This Means for You

Jesus upgraded the relationship. He didn't call His followers servants anymore. He called them friends. A servant just follows orders. A friend is trusted with the heart behind them. That's what God wants with you: not blind obedience, but genuine closeness.

Try This Today

Text or call a close friend today and ask: 'What's really going on with you right now?' Then listen without trying to fix anything. Be the kind of friend Jesus described.
