@risaandjesus
I’ve heard this song a million times and it’s one of my favorites but it holds more deep when u go through trials and unknowns and you rely and trust him in that situation. Today, I just cried listening to this….I don’t know why he loves and cares for me so much but he truly does love us unconditionally. I’m truly amazed he calls me a friend.

❤James 2:23 (NLT): And so it happened just as the Scriptures say: “Abraham believed God, and God counted him as righteous because of his faith.” He was even called the friend of God.
🙏Prayer Focus: God, I ask You in Jesus’ name, let me be known by You and all the angels in heaven and on earth that I am Your friend. God teach me how and bless me to become a true friend of Yours so that my life may reflect the intimate relationship I have with You. Let this be my confession, “I Am a Friend of God.” God please do the same for the writers of this prayer, my family, and friends. May we each experience the joy and privilege of being known as Your friends. God please strengthen our faith and deepen our relationship with You. May our lives bring glory to Your name. Amen, so be it by faith. Thank You Jesus!

As not a particularly religious person - music like this makes me believe there has to be something greater than us to give talent like this
