My True Forever Friend

I found a true forever friend the day that I found you. Lord I can't give thanks enough for all that you do. You shower me with blessings not a day am I without.  The things I am in need of there's no reason to doubt. When days are dark and dreary and my spirits are brought low you give me words of peace and comfort to my body, mind, and soul. When I've surely lost my way lovingly you take my hand that I shall not be led astray. When my faith is growing weak your renew my hope and courage for its your strength that I seek. When dangers lurk about me there dispelling dread and fear blessed and I thou so unworthy to have found a friend so true. Greater love could no man offer. No one cares for me like you.

Hi Lemonia..if this is a pen name...very nice..I feel the same about my Father..no one cares for me like HIM! This is such a poem of friendship and devotion. It reminds me of the movie Ben Hur as he found Christ to truly be his friend on his walk to Calvary...please continue to write just like this again. God's blessings to u. Gwendolen
