Just As I Am
The well-known hymn “Just As I Am” has been around for a long time. It was written in 1835 by Charlotte Elliott, an English poet and hymn writer. The story goes that Charlotte was visiting some friends in London when she met a famous minister. When Charlotte asked the minister how to come to Christ, he replied, “Just come to him as you are.”
This hymn is an incredible reminder that Jesus wants us to come to him just as we are—we don’t have to say the right things or clean up our acts before we come to him. As the popular saying goes, “Jesus loves you just the way you are, but he loves you too much to leave you that way.” Jesus came to earth to pay the price for our sins so that we can be saved and spend eternity with God. His grace makes that possible; it’s not because of any good deeds we can do. Jesus is the way, the truth, the life. Come to him today.
“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. The only way to the Father is through me.’” John 14:6 NCV

Get Your Umbrella!
HOW’S IT GOING!?!
Seriously, is Revolve almost here because I miss your faces. Real bad.
Okay, so we were in the middle of talking about what it looks like for YOU to be a good friend. This fall I want to suggest four ways that you can do this. If you missed the first one – check it out!!!
So #1: ASK GOOD QUESTIONS.
How’d that go? Did you have a moment where you realized that your friend trusted you with something special?
The thing about asking good questions is that then people might start sharing some really personal things about themselves. When this happens, you have a choice to make – you can hold that information and care for it or you can tell a whole bunch of people about it.
That brings me to my next suggestion.
#2: BE A SAFE PLACE
Sometimes it may seem like everything is all fine and sunny when actually life could be raining really hard on your friend. They may be looking for a break or some relief; you never know. Offer her your umbrella.
The thing about an umbrella is it doesn’t stop the rain or make the clouds disappear, but it does provide a shelter from whatever storm your friend might be in.
Being a safe place means being trustworthy. A place where your friend knows she can be herself and share whatever she is going through without judgment. Sometimes it means just being a good listener. Sometimes it means inviting her over to your house for a chilled out sleep over – you know, a simple pizza and a movie kind of night.
To be a safe place for your friend, all you have to do is ask good questions and listen for their response. You’ll know what to do. Just reach for your umbrella.

Knowing
Can people really know they’re Christians?
Most definitely. God’s Word makes it very clear. “If you use your mouth to say, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9). In order to do those two things, people have to know they are doing them. And once they’ve done them, they can know they are Christians.
Whoever has the Son has life.… 1 John 5:12 NCV
