Best Advice
Within each there's sure to come a day,
when consoling a friend we'll search for words to say.
We try to imagine the funk that they're in,
but can we truly know if we've not there been?
It's during these times that their souls lay bare,
searching for answers or friend to care.
While seeking advice they pour out their hearts,
while continuing to give place to sin's fiery darts.
Their problems most often, almost to the one,
could quickly disappear by going to the Son.
Out of sympathy we may offer encouragement that day,
but the best advice we have is to show them the way.
