When I Needed A Friend

If one falls down,
his friend can help him up.
But pity the man who falls
and has no one to pick him up! (Ecclesiastes 4:10)

When I Needed A Friend

 

I was so alone, but
I felt your love when we were together
Remember when
You stood by my side in stormy weather?

You were my blessing --
My only friend when trouble assailed me
You shouldered my load
And encouraged me when others failed me

I owe you so much
For lifting me and helping me to dream
You gave me the faith
To believe things aren't always as they seem

Beyond all the storms,
One sweet morning the sun would rise and shine
That bright day would come
When I could smile and say that life was fine

And as I look back,
I can see that I've finally turned the bend
I'm on the right path
because you cared when I needed a friend

 

Let's all smile a big smile and thank God for friends!

People come and go in our lives, but a true friend lasts forever.

Wonderful thoughts! Well written! We need to read more poems like this one. Good, meaningful poetry is very rare. It's like when I turn on the TV these days. I get scared to death of all the garbage I have to sift through just to find something that is meaningful to watch. Thank God for the few that we can still view while eating dinner. Like one out of a hundred! So yes, I thank God for poets like you! Amen, my friend...

Friends are the gifts of love from God above. I don't know where I'd be if it weren't for those few precious friends who know me through and through. I was touched by your visit my page this morning. I can feel Jesus has a first row seat in your life, and I am glad. I hope to read more of your lovely poetry, thank you for stopping by,

Positively splendid poetry!

The reason you have good friends.. is because you know how to be one.

And I will be forever grateful to the LORD, Connie, that you and I share that title with each other.

With lots of love & blessings, Rhonnie

The need for a friend is a needful need indeed. There was a time when I didn't believe that. I am grateful I do today. Nice work, Connie.
