Alleluia

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

I call you my friends, says the Lord,
for I have made known to you all that the Father has told me. (Jn 15:15)

There’s an old saying that goes, “Friends are the family we choose for ourselves.” What does it mean to be a “friend” of Jesus? How does this special knowledge of what the Father has revealed change us? Could this be the "treasure buried in the field" or the “pearl of great price” that one would give everything to have?
