Need a friend???

My mom testified at church one time, and she shared something that I had NEVER heard before!!! It was soooo neat I just have to share it with you all!!!
.
She said that when we lived in New York, before we got in church, one of the things that prompted her to EVEN go to church at all, was that she was looking for a friend. She said that although there were people our family associated with, she didn't feel like she really had her own friend.
.
She was hoping for someone that she could do stuff with or just talk with on the phone! So when the Kathy, the lady across the street from us, invited my mom to church, one of the things that prompted her to go was she thought..."Maybe if I go, I'll find a FRIEND!!!"
.
She said that there were a lot of people that she met at church that she enjoyed fellowship with, BUT she said the friend she got, wasn't THE FRIEND she had been looking for. She said that when she got the Holy Ghost, she got a friend that has NEVER left her side. We were only at that church for nine months before we moved to AZ, she left behind her friends at that church, BUT Jesus, came right along with her!!! All her life long till she died she had Jesus, and she said that Jesus is STILL the best friend she has ever had!!!
.
Are you looking for a friend?
LOOK NO FURTHER!!!
 JESUS wants to be YOUR friend!!! GO TO JESUS!!!
He is THE BEST FRIEND YOU CAN EVER HAVE!!!
♪Oh, What a friend we have in Jesus! 
... a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
(Proverbs 18:24)

Following Jesus!

HAHAHAHAHA!
I saw this cartoon and cracked up! THIS is the way people are thinkin of Christianity these days! People want EVERYTHING to be easy peasy, with as little work as possible! 1,2,3...SNAP...and BAM...and instantley, your a Christian...
(Btw-NO, I do NOT think this is what Jesus LOOKED LIKE! LOL JESUS was a MILLION times better lookin!!!;)
 This is how following Jesus is often veiwed...
Like all you have to do is click your mouse on follow and your a Christian, but thats NOT how it works. Signing a paper doesn't make you any more a Christian that hitting "Like" on Facebook makes you to "Like" someone. Jesus doesn't have a "Love" button for you to love him and forwarding an email won't make you a Christian either... BUT Jesus says in Luke 9:23, "If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me."
 Don't wait, you can follow JESUS TODAY!
Find out how by reading in your Bible Acts 2:38
