You’re my friend and that is true,
but the gift was given from me to you.
We went through moments
that were good and bad,
even moments that were happy and sad.
You supported me when I was in tears;
we stuck together when we were in fear,
Its really sad that it had to be this way,
but it has reached its very last day.
Miles away can’t keep us apart,
'cause you'll always be in my heart.
Faraway Friends Forever.
What is a friend!
A friend is like a flower,
a rose to be exact.
Or maybe like a brand new gate
that never comes unlatched.
A friend is like an owl,
both beautiful and wise.
Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost,
whose spirit never dies.
A friend is like a heart,
that goes strong until the end.
Where would we be in this world,
there is time for mending,
time to see your troubles coming to an ending.
Life is never hopeless however great your sorrow,
if you're looking forward to a new tomorrow.
If there is time for wishing
then there is time for hoping,
when through doubt and darkness
you are blindly groping.
Though the heart be heavy,
and hurt you may be feeling,
if there is time for praying,
there is time for healing.
So if through your window
there is a new day breaking,
thank God for the promise,
though mind and soul be aching.
If with harvest over there is grain enough for gleaning,
there is a new tomorrow and life still has meaning.
I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work,
for bills would soon be due.
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
and jumped up off my knees.
My duty toward god was now done my soul could rest at ease.
All day long I had no time to spread a word of cheer.
No time to speak of God to friends, they'd laugh at me I'd fear.
No time, no time, too much to do, that was my constant cry.
No time to give to souls in need,
but at last the time to die.
I went before the Lord, I came,
I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God held a book;
it was the book of life.
God looked into his book and said:
"Your name I cannot find.
I once was going to write it down but never found the time"
You're a true friend,
that I want you to know,
Our love for each other has helped us to grow.
We've been through some tough times,
but we've made it through,
Heavenly Garden
God has a lovely garden
in his mansion up above.
He tends the garden every day
with tenderness and love.
The flowers that are in it
are the sweetest and the best.
To get into God's garden
they have to pass a test.
He goes around them every day
treating them with care.
You're really very lucky
you have a flower in there.
And when you reach the garden
you'll look at it with pride.
Knowing God,
He'll probably put you
GOD SPEAK TO ME...
The man
whispered, "God, speak to me."
And a meadowlark sang. But, the man did not hear.
Then the man yelled
"God, speak to me."
Thunder rolled across the sky. But, the man did not listen.
The man looked around and said,
"God, let me see you."
And the stars shined brightly. But the man did not notice.
And, the man shouted,
"God, show me a miracle."
And, a life was born.
But the man did not know.
So, the man cried out in despair,
"Touch me God, and let me know you are here."
Whereupon, God reached down and touched the man.
But, the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on.
So remember,
don't miss out on a blessing
because it isn't packaged the way that you expect.
