We all know the saying, “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend”, right?  My birthstone is a diamond and I do enjoy wearing them.  Beautiful, aren’t they?  I love the way diamonds glisten in the sun.  But are they really a girl’s best friend?

I’d like to say that while I do like my diamonds and think they are very beautiful, they don’t compare to the love Jesus showed me on the cross, the love Jesus shows me daily when I walk in and through each challenge life throws my way; even when I mess up He loves me still.

Yep, I’d say that Jesus is a girl’s best friend!

“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.”~ John 15:13

“I am the good shepherd.  The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.” ~ John 10:11

“I am the good shepherd; and I know my sheep and am known by My own.  As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.” ~ John 10:14-15b

Thank you Jesus for being my good shepherd, for laying down your life for me, and for being my best friend!
