The Friend We Don't Deserve

I have lied to said friend. 
I have stabbed said friend in the back. 
I have talked crap about said friend.
I have denied my relationship with said friend.
I have ignored said friend.
I have questioned said friends love and devotion. 
I have lied about said friend.
I have accused said friend of things they did not do. 
I have spread untrue rumors about said friend.
I have forgotten about said friend. 


This friend STILL through all of this, loves me more than i can describe. 
"Who is this friend?" you ask.

Well. 
His name is Jesus Christ,
Holy, Holy,Holy. 
His name is Alpha and Omega 
He is the Author of Life 
He is the Blessed and only Ruler 
His name is the Author and Perfecter of our Faith
His name is The Chief Cornerstone 
His name is my father. 

i.
do.
not.
deserve.
Him.
I don't. But that is just the thing. THAT is what is so great about my dad. 
He loved me FIRST. Not after i asked Him to. 
He chose me. I didn't sign up for Him. 
And doesn't knowing that someone wants you, someone thinks you are WORTH DYING for just amazing?
Cause i do not know if i can honestly say that i would die for any of my friends.  
BUT this friend. 
THIS friend is never going to leave you, never going to forsake you. EVEN when you deserve it. 




"even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,"
Romans 3:22-23,


"For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more."
Jeremiah 31:34 



I have lied to said friend. 
He only speaks truth to me. 
I have stabbed said friend in the back. 
He took out the knife and forgave. 
I have talked crap about said friend.
He forgives.
I have denied my relationship with said friend.
He claims me as his own.
I have ignored said friend.
He never turns his back on me.
I have questioned said friends love and devotion. 
He loves UNCONDITIONALLY.
I have lied about said friend.
He forgives.
I have accused said friend of things they did not do. 
He is never wrong. 
I have spread untrue rumors about said friend.
He is truth. 
I have forgotten about said friend. 
He will never forget me. 


Because, He is the friend that none of us deserve.
