A Friend of Mine!
DECEMBER 1, 2022
You are My friends…. I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.
John 15:14-15
Recommended Reading: John 15:9-17
In the early 1900s, William C. Poole, a Methodist pastor in Delaware, told preachers that a sermon should have enough humanity in it to get down on everyone’s level, to touch elbows and hearts and enough divinity in it to lift people up. That’s good advice for every Christian teacher or preacher.

He took upon Himself humanity and came down here to touch elbows and hearts with us. But being God, He is also able to lift us up. Because Jesus is a man, He can sympathize with us. Because He is God, He can strengthen us. No matter what we’re experiencing in our life, we have a Savior who understands.

About the time William C. Poole was preaching sermons, John Sammis was writing hymns. One of them said: “Why should I charge my soul with care? The wealth of every mine belongs to Christ, God’s Son and Heir, and He’s a Friend of mine.”
He’s your Friend too!
The golden sun, the silver moon, and all the stars that shine, are His alone, yes, every one, and He’s a Friend of mine.
John Sammis
