My Daily Musings-Feb.6th, 2026

Friendship has been a constant thread throughout my life, even when everything else felt like it was changing. Growing up, we moved often. As an adult, my married life has brought moves too. Each change came with goodbyes that were hard—but also with new friendships that shaped who I was becoming.

Looking back, I can see the Lord’s hand in every place we lived. We were led where we needed to be because of the people we needed to meet and the experiences we needed to have. Every friend mattered. Every season mattered.

Jesus once said, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends…” (John 15:13–14). What makes those words so powerful is that He spoke them before He laid down His life for each one of us. He knew what He would do—and He still called us His friends.

If you ever feel alone, remember this: Jesus is the best friend you will ever have. He knows your heart. He understands your pain. He knows exactly how to help you heal from your trials and move forward. If He calls us His friends, how blessed we truly are. We are never alone—because He is always there.

Here are a couple questions to ask yourself: How has the Lord used friendships in different seasons of my life to help shape who I am today? What does it mean to me personally that Jesus calls me His friend?
