17Proverbs 18:24

A man who has friends must himself be friendly, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. 

God is that friend who sticks closer than a brother.  His love for us is beyond measure and He promised that He would never leave us or forsake us.  We are a temple and the Spirit of God dwells within us and all we have to do is believe.  Our faith is our witness to the love of God and His presence with us.
