A prayer for a friend

A Prayer For My Friend
Author Unknown

Lord, I ask You to bless my friend who is reading this right now.

Where there is pain,
may they find peace and mercy.

Where there is self-doubt,
may they gain a renewed confidence.

Where there is weariness or exhaustion,
give them understanding, patience, and strength.

Where there is fear,
reveal your love, and offer to them your courage.

Give them greater vision, bless their finances,
and raise up leaders and friends to support and encourage them.

May their spirit always be joyous and
their days rich and full with love and happiness,

And may they always know that they have a friend.



 

I don't know the author of the above prayer. But its something that rings true so just had to post it.

The Doctor46, Thank you so much for posting this! Words I needed to hear. It is so beautiful and wise in its way.

Friends are a treasure and when you are lucky enuf in this life to find a few, I say, you have riches beyond measure. Our own children can also be our friend, neighbors can be our friends. Mother Earth can be our friend when we treat her right. A stranger in the check-out line can be our friend...all it takes is reaching out with kindness and love...smiling at someone new...it all adds up. We are all in "this" together and having a friend, whether near or far, is what is important.

A poem like that is truly what it is all about! Thanx again for sharing!! Blessings and the best to a "friend".
