THE NO MAKE-UP FRIEND
By Sally I. Kennedy
March 4, 2011

God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still
sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

The No Make-Up Friend

A quick shower, and …uh-oh, it was already time for my guest to
arrive.

"Well, no time for make-up now, " I said, out loud, to myself. Then,
"That's OK. It's Sandie; it'll be all right."

It's OK to be ourselves with a good friend. In fact, it is a great
blessing. You don't have to worry about putting your best foot
forward, or trying to win them over. It is comfortable to 'just be
yourself.'

I saw a bumper sticker the other day that said, 'Jesus is my best
friend'. How about, "Jesus is my 'no make-up friend' ".

It is true: there's nothing you can do, and nothing you cannot do,
that would change the love of God for you. He can never love you
less, and never love you more. He just loves you. That's it; He
loves you. God IS love. And He loves you. Just the way you are.
Make-up, or no make-up.
That's good news.
