Comments on: Who’s Your Best Friend? http://www.midlifemusings.com/2007/04/07/who%e2%80%99s-your-best-friend/ Reflections on life from 40-something Fri, 03 Feb 2012 03:44:20 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Midlife Musings- Avoiding midlife crisis with faith, family, humor, politics and the laundry chronicles http://www.midlifemusings.com/2007/04/07/who%e2%80%99s-your-best-friend/comment-page-1/#comment-4882 Midlife Musings- Avoiding midlife crisis with faith, family, humor, politics and the laundry chronicles Fri, 20 Apr 2007 00:34:22 +0000 http://www.midlifemusings.com/2007/04/07/who%e2%80%99s-your-best-friend/#comment-4882 [...] 2. I have known about Christ all my life, and accepted Him as My Savior as a child. But it was not until I was in my mid-20s that I really began to get to know Him. And only in the last couple of years that I have begun to understand what grace, mercy and love really are. For many years, I read “there is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus”, and while my head read the words, my heart did not grasp the meaning. Life in Christ is life in freedom. He loves me. He loves me. He loves me. Yes, even me. With all my failings, and all my sins and all my shortcomings, He loves me. It is His strongest desire to give me life and give it to me more abundantly. It was when I began to understand this, the enormity of it, that I understood that all those promises in the Bible were for me. Not for other people, good people, but for me. Just as I am, right now. And the beauty of it is that even though He loves me just like I am, He loves me too much to leave me that way. I’ll direct you to another post about My Best Friend. [...] [...] 2.
