“No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.” John 15:15 . “We need to achieve the desire of our Friend (the Lord Jesus) and reveal to Him the secrets of our hearts. We must not ignore His trust. Let us show Him our hearts so that He may open His heart for us…So a friend, if he is truly a friend, does not hide anything, but rather pours out himself as our Lord Jesus pours out His Father’s secrets. Thus, he who does God’s will is God’s friend and is honored by this name. He who has the same mind is a friend because there is oneness of thought between friends. Nobody is more despised than the offender against friendship is.” Saint Ambrose #Jesusismyfriend #dailyreadings #Holy50 #coptic #orthodox #ChristisRisenandAscended
