Poem

I have a friend who's close to me
Entrapped by a sin; he can't break free.
While flowers fill his life and needs,
Still there grows up a crop of weeds.

My friend says he knows he's bad
And whispers in a voice so sad
He hopes that the Father above
Will see he's weak and forgive in love.

Sometimes my friend was trying, sometimes he wasn't.
Sometimes he wins, sometimes he doesn't.
His life is a struggle between  good and bad
Winning a little, losing all he had.

I lift him up in a prayer a lot
And he tells me God is all he's got.
Seems to me he always wants more
And turning from God he loses the score.

When he's sorry, he lays it on thick,
But in the end, repentance won't stick.
I have to wonder what God thinks of it all
Watching my friend be a bouncing ball.

But I love my friend, so I won't quit
Trying to get him and God to fit.
And for me there'll be no surprise
If in heaven he's right there before my eyes.

For two things I know as sure as He lives
My friend loves Jesus, and He forgives.
And thirdly, He can set the worst of men free.
After all, He salvaged me.
