Your Truest And Best FRIEND!

If you saw CHRIST standing 
beside you all the time
(J.R. Miller, "Intimate Letters on Personal Problems")

Scripture says of Moses, that 

"he endured as seeing HIM 
who is invisible!" Hebrews 11:27. 

That is, Moses always remembered 
that GOD was right beside him, 
his friend to help him--
and this made him strong. 
He did not actually see GOD--
but it was as if he saw HIM. 
That is, he realized the divine 
presence in all of his life.

If you saw CHRIST standing 
beside you all the time--
it would not be hard for you 
to keep sweet, to keep control 
of temper and speech. 

Well, CHRIST IS beside you--
just as really as HE was beside 
Mary when she sat at HIS feet 
in Bethany, or beside Peter and 
the other disciples as they walked 
together over the hills of Judea 
and Galilee. 

What you need, is to realize this fact. 
We know that JESUS is present with us 
all the time, at every moment, by day 
or by night. HE is closer than any 
human friend can be to us. 

Indeed, we are to practice HIS presence--
that is, we are to live all the time, 
as if we actually saw HIM!

You must remember that 
CHRIST is always beside 
you, not only to see you--
but to help you, as your 
truest and best FRIEND!
