The day came when I told My disciples that I would no longer call them My servants, but I would call them My friends. After they had been tested in their obedience to keep My commandments,, they entered a new phase in their relationship with Me.
My disciples learned to communicate with Me without pretense. Earlier when they walked with Me, they wanted to impress Me with their dedication to Me. However, the day came when they just enjoyed walking with Me day by day.
I want you to never obey Me out of duty or out of a desire to impress Me. I want you to enjoy My presence with you daily. I am your friend, but never forget that I created all things. That includes you. This truth should cause you to stand in awe of Me and to revere Me.
