Job 16:19-21 ” Even now my witness is in heaven; my advocate is on high. My intercessor is my friend as my eyes pour out tears to God; on behalf of a man He pleads with God as a man pleads for his friend.”

These verses remind me of the old Hymn, “What a Friend I have in Jesus.”  When our burdens are too heavy to bear…our friend Jesus is there, ready to take those burdens and offer support and comfort.  When pain and sorrow fills our body…our friend Jesus is there at the right hand of God interceding, and pleading  on our behalf.  Yes, if we think about it,  there really is no better friend than Jesus.
