My question to all, are you a friend of the Most High God or are you a servant of the Lord? To answer my own question God has called me to be His friend. How blessed it is to be a friend of the Living God. It's also a blessing to be a servant of the Lord too. Being a friend of God is AWESOME in itself.

I hope that I am both a friend of GOD and a servant of GOD. I want to love GOD with all of my heart. It is so hard to always do the right things everyday, since the world is so full of evil. It is very easy to make mistakes in life. I really do want to be a good person.

That's lovely. I believe wanting to be God's servant shows humility. Humility before honor. God bless you and keep. Only God knows your heart and He will grant you your desires if you delight yourself in Him.

I think God created us to be His friends and we serve Him because of our mutual friendship. Because our friend, God, has been so good to us and has richly blessed us, we want to serve Him in return.

I am a child of God. That means that I am a different category. Being a friend enjoins no responsibilities, being a child of God means God is your Father and children are supposed to obey their fathers not only in the flesh, but in the spirit. Now if I were a friend of God, I could just pal around with God and I could only obey HIM when convenient. Now if I were a servant of God, that I could not expect much and that is what the people in the Old Testament were, servants of God and they feared HIM. But now we are children of God, in that because HE has given us faith to obey HIM, we are rewarded in heaven and will sit in heavenly places along with God, the Son, and the Angels.

Oh, yes Zoom, I am a friend of the Most High God! He has called me friend because I love Him and He wants me to know what He is doing. He fills me with His joy daily. All day long. All I need do is just praise Him. And He enhabits the praises of His people. He lifts me up out of the muck and mire and sets me up in a high place in a large room. The love He has given me makes me free to love others and to want the best for them.

I love that, "He wants me to know what He is doing." A slave doesn't know the plans of his master.

I would like to believe that I am both a friend and a servant of God. To be Christian means having an intimate relationship with the Lord; at the same time, we came into this world in order to do God's mission, and therefore, we are His servants at the same time. For me, if I truly love God, I should love others as well.
