Just the Right time

Know anybody who is on time - all the time - not early - not late. That's the way God is. He is an on-time God! That really frustrates me sometimes. I kinda figure it wouldn't hurt Him to be early and of course never late. But His timing is perfect.

Romans 5:6 "When we were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners."

Jesus has made us friends with God. Romans 5:11 "So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship wiht God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God." WOW! How about that? A friend of God. Now I know for some that might seem to downgrade the relationship because we think of our relationship with God as so much more. But when you think of a true friendship it goes much deeper than being "friendly". I think I have shared earlier that a friend is someone who you can count on no matter what - they are always there. You might not see them every day or talk every day but you know they are there. That's the way God is - a friend - a friend who has laid His life down for us through Jesus. John 15:13 "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." 

"Friend of God" I love this song. Here is the link where you can listen on YouTube if you haven't listened lately. :-)
Friend of God

I am so glad I serve an On Time God who calls me Friend.
