Grace for the Moment © 2000 by Max Lucado APRIL 23 Friends with God I no longer call you servants, . . . but I call you friends. JOHN 15:15 Through Christ’s sacrifice, our past is pardoned and our future secure. And, “Since we have been made right with God by our faith, we have peace with God” (Romans 5:1). Peace with God.
