But what happiness, what security, what joy to have someone to whom you dare speak on terms of equality as to another self;  one to whom you need no fear to confess your failings; one to whom you can unblushingly make known what progress you have made in the spiritual life; one to who you can entrust all the secrets of your heart and before whom you can place all your plans!

Jesus, thank you for calling me a friend.  It is almost too much to take in!  Teach me to be a true friend to you and others.

Ezekiel 38-39 Psalms 70

I'm tired, boss. Tired of being on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. I'm tired of never having me a buddy to be with to tell me where we's going to, coming from, or why. Mostly, I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world...every day. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head...all the time. Can you understand? ...Stephen King, The Green Mile 

Jesus, this day we pray, strongly for all people to remember that You are GOD and You gave us freedom from the bondage of false truths the enemy has hit Your creation with.  We pray to You for we know only YOU, are Divine and only YOU have total control! This world is truly being hit by the enemy and he is dividing people terribly with his false truths.  Keep us bound in unity with You Jesus and only YOU!!!! Your Word is the TRUTH.  Amen (Prayers Cross)

Christianity is not about building an absolutely secure little niche in the world where you can live with your perfect little wife and your perfect little children in your beautiful little house where you have no gays or minority groups anywhere near you.
