“A Friend of Jesus”
📖 “You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.”
—John 15:14 (NKJV)
What does it mean to be a friend of Jesus?
He tells us: it means we listen to His voice and obey His Word.
That’s not something only pastors or teachers do. It’s something for every family member—young and old.
As a family, we’re invited to walk with Jesus, not just learn about Him. And friendship with Jesus grows stronger through simple obedience—together.
When your family makes choices that honor Him—how you speak, forgive, serve, and love—you’re living as His friends.
What an honor. What a relationship.
Family Reflection:
- What’s one command of Jesus we can practice better as a family?
- How can we remind each other that we’re walking with Him daily?
Prayer:
Jesus, thank You for calling our family to be Your friends. Help us obey You not out of fear, but because we love You. Teach us to walk with You every day. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
