Jesus wasn’t special because He was Jesus. He was special because He was love. We’re not so different, because that’s who God created us to be as well. He modeled the life we were created for. So we can’t say we can’t be like Him because we’re us and He’s Jesus. We’re made in His image and He lives in us.

What Friendship Is
When Jesus was nailed to His cross, He had no friends but God. All forsook Him yet He never ceased from loving us the way God wanted Him to. If you learn to be God’s friend through Christ, you won’t fear losing friends, really.
Friends are people who honor one another because they’re in a covenant relationship and have laid their lives down for one another. It’s not work or “you owe me”, it’s I love you, period. This is the example Jesus, who is the Truth, set of friendship.

Guys, everybody dies, but not everybody truly lives. It’s really true. Truly living is living for the Gospel.
