A Friend From Above
I prayed for you before we met,
Not knowing who you’d be.
I asked the Lord to send a friend.
One chosen just for me.
I asked that they’d be Godly,
With wisdom of His ways.
A friend to help and guide me
In the troubles of these days.
So often in life, we need someone
To listen while we talk.
Someone who will not condemn or judge,
But encourage us as we walk.
The narrow road we choose to follow
May sometimes make us stumble.
But to have a friend to catch our fall,
Teaches us to be humble.
When I asked the Lord to send a friend,
Though many came and went.
He gave much more than I ever asked,
For you are the friend He sent.

Cheryl,
You are making me cry on a regular basis. Is this going to be a regular thing with us; if so I am going to have to buy stock in Georgia Pacific and be able to keep some of the money I will be spending on tissues. <<>>
You are really a “True Gem”; hope this piece of “Carbon in the Rough” will be a blessing to you in some small way. I know that no matter what happens, I WILL SEE YOU IN HEAVEN ONE DAY…….SOONER RATHER THAN LATER. God Bless.
THIS BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES AND LET ME THINK ABOUT MY FRIEND ACROSS THE MILES. I WANTED TO HUG HER FOR SENDING THIS WONDERFUL POEM TO ME. GOD BLESS ALL WHO READ IT.
