I've always enjoyed Pixar movies. Somehow they're all really really good. Especially the Toy Story series. Man, what a well made series. The theme song, You've Got a Friend in Me, has been stuck in my head the past couple of days. It's gotten me thinking about what a friend is. I used to qualify a friend as someone I'd hang out with on a regular basis. That's a friend right? Eh...not quite. As I thought more about it, I realized a friend is much more than that. A friend is someone that you can trust, someone you can look up to, someone that sincerely cares about you.
As the theme song of Toy Story goes:
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me
When the road looks rough ahead
and you're miles and miles from your nice warm bed
Just remember what your old pal said
Yeah, you've got a friend in me
Christ is and will always be our best friend. May we strive to be the friend that he would have us be. As we continue to live his teachings and follow his example, we can be that friend. And when the road looks rough ahead, we can turn to him.
