Psalm 27:4-10 (New International Version)
4 One thing I ask of the LORD,
this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the LORD
all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD
and to seek him in his temple.
5 For in the day of trouble
he will keep me safe in his dwelling;
he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle
and set me high upon a rock.
6 Then my head will be exalted
above the enemies who surround me;
at his tabernacle will I sacrifice with shouts of joy;
I will sing and make music to the LORD.
7 Hear my voice when I call, O LORD;
be merciful to me and answer me.
8 My heart says of you, "Seek his [a] face!"
Your face, LORD, I will seek.
9 Do not hide your face from me,
do not turn your servant away in anger;
you have been my helper.
Do not reject me or forsake me,
O God my Savior.
10 Though my father and mother forsake me,
the LORD will receive me.
Scriptures
John21: 5
He (Jesus) called out to them, “Friends haven't you any fish”
1 John 4:7
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
Devotion
Today my heart is stirred to talk about the importance of friendship. School has just begun and many of the prayer request that teenagers are sending in are related to needing friends. First, let me say that God is the most faithful friend you will ever have. God is with us all of the time, he is never too busy to spend time with us. So we are friends of God. All throughout the New Testament we see the words “dear friends.” So friendship is important to God. Let me share an encouraging story of how God answered my prayer when I was attending a new public school at age 16.
I was a new Christian and wanted to meet other Christians in school. The first day of school I prayed that I would meet Christians. Before attending classes, we were required to meet in a large gymnasium where hundreds of students gathered for orientation. Other students that I did not know surrounded me. There was a girl sitting to my right and as I looked down at the bleachers on top of the pile of books that she had set next to me was a bible in plain sight. I leaned over and said, “ Are you a Christian” she replied “Yes I am.” She then invited me to a Christian group that met after school. This invitation by just one friend opened the door to many other friendships. That was the beginning of a life long friendship with her. God is amazing! I am now able to pray with great faith for others who need friends because of what God did for me. Today trust him to bring friends into your life and also reach out to others to be a friend to them. Friendship is so important, no one likes feeling alone.
