Friendship (Quatrain)

15th May 2009

Life is a unique journey
At times hard, sometimes lonely
God knows you need a sincere friend
To help you be all He intends

A true friend is God's precious gift
His care and concern all so swift
Risking the hurt to tell you the truth
Helping you succeed in all you do

He is not perfect but he is faithful
He comes alongside, he listens to you
He has your interests at heart
He hopes you'll be happy as a lark

A friend remains all so true
He stays close even when you're feeling blue
He puts your needs above his
More important than his hobbies

Ask God for a few good friends
True friends that He will send
Friends who know what friends are for
Friends who truly follow after God

A friend sharpens you to do what is right
Draws you closer to the Lord Jesus Christ
As he is to you, be a true friend to others
Point them often to our heavenly Father
