A Prayer For a Friendship

Today, I pray for a friendship.
Lord, please hear my prayer.

At times, we both can feel oh so blue,
Please guide and help see us through.
I cannot picture life without her Lord,
Losing her I truly cannot afford…
We have been there for one another through thick and thin,
We have been there, even during the times when we have sinned.

And sin no more, for spiritual growth is what we both seek,
And through this, I pray the days will be gone of our friendship looking bleak.
I’m sorry Lord, for almost leading one of your best children astray,
I pray that you and she can forgive me, please forgive me one day...
You have blessed me so much Lord, with her presence in my life,
Please don’t take her away, fore the pain would be worse than the deepest cut from the sharpest knife.

I promise to do whatever it takes for our bond to last the test of time,
I’ll even finally let go of that hope and fantasy, that one day she may be mine.
Her friendship is more than enough for me to be content,
I see that now Lord, please let our bond last forever with your consent.
I will love her near and I will love her from afar if I must,
But this prayer is so that afar it will never be, and in each other we will always entrust.

Today, I pray for a friendship.
Lord, please hear my prayer.
