Christ Unites True Friends

WHEN Jesus comes between true friends, he does not separate, but he unites them. Some tell us that we must not love our dear ones too much, lest we make God jealous, and he take them away. This is only pagan teaching. He who had the best right to speak on this subject had a very different idea. He said, if you can not love your fellows on earth, how can you love your Father in heaven? The Master always stands between real friends, but ever to bring them closer. Formerly the ocean separated the continents, now it connects them. As we get to know more of the purpose of the Lord in our lives, we see that he alone makes great and abiding affection possible.—Sunday School Times.
