My Hero - My Best Friend

Spoken with my best friend,
Shared my every thought.
He has always been there to listen,
No judgmental actions at all.

Think he never listens,
I've heard his gentle voice,
"That faux pas wasn't so bad, 
You'll make a better choice."

Listening to my best friend,
He never turns me away,
I know his love and kindness
Is guiding me along the way.

My best and dearest friend is kind,
He's always waiting in the shadows,
To help me clearly understand my life,
He watches over me . . . that's right!
 
Always feeling safe and loved,
No matter where I am.
Who, you ask, is my hero and best friend?
Why it's God!  Who else could care that much?
