I call you friends,
because I have made known to you
everything I heard from my Father.
John 15:15
John is the only one of the twelve who was at the cross. He came to say good-bye.
By his own admission he hadn’t quite put the pieces together yet.
But that didn’t really matter.
As far as he was concerned,
his closest friend was in trouble and he came to help…
John teaches us that the…
greatest webs of loyalty are spun,
not with airtight theologies or foolproof philosophies,
but with friendships;
stubborn,
selfless,
joyful friendships.
