God, My Friend ~

God, my Friend,
my Helper, my Aide
when I am with you
I’m never afraid.

You remove my fear,
erase all my doubt
on me I believe
You’ll never walk out.

God, my Supporter,
my Backer, my Ally
by me I know . . .
You’ll always standby.

You make my way,
straight as can be
whenever You walk
along side of me.

God my Champion,
my Pal, my Friend
I know You’re with me
until the very end!

Proverbs 18:24

A man that hath friends must shew
himself friendly: and there is a
Friend that sticketh closer
than a brother.

Wisdom You bring,

Jesus’ promise to us
may in You we put
all of our trust!

Sticky Note From God ~04.13.18~

We All Need A Friend ~

We all need a friend,
to encourage us
we all need someone
who in God truly trusts.

We all need a partner,
with whom we can pray
someone who will help us
stay on the narrow way.

We all need a mentor,
in whom we can share
someone who understands
the weight of our care.

We all need a confidant,
to help our faith grow
someone who believes
God’s will we can know.

We all need a friend,
a faithful supporter
we all need God’s Spirit
to be our shock absorber!

John 14:16

“And I will pray the Father,
and he shall give you another

Sustaining Faith ~

My faith has sustained me,
through life’s’ ups and downs
it has been with me . . .
through laughter and frowns.

My faith has carried me,
through tragedy and grief
it has provided me . . .
with strength and relief.

My faith has helped me,
though periods of drought
it has saved me . . .
from my fear and doubt.

My faith has kept me,
through stormy conditions
it has supported me . . .
with prayer and petitions.

My faith has taken me,
through days of not knowing
it has stabilized me . . .
as harsh winds came blowing.

My faith has sustained me,
through life’s highs and lows
it has taught me to trust . . .
in the One who knows!

“O lord, thou hast searched me,

My Prayer for You ~

I pray the Lord will be with you,
while this, you are going through
I pray you will not leave His side
so in Him, you can restfully abide.

I pray the Lord will stand with you,
give you wisdom, in what to do
I pray He’ll help to keep you still
as you seek out, His perfect will.

I pray the Lord will be your helper,
In Him, you’ll find your comforter
I pray He will show you His plans
as you dwell in His mighty hands.

I pray the Lord will be your light,
calm your fears throughout the night
I pray His Word will bring you peace
and your anxiety will come to cease.

I pray today the Lord is with you,
and tomorrow all will be anew
I pray the Lord will meet your need
from this burden, you’ll soon be freed!

From Where My Help Comes ~

Whenever I am sad,
when burdens overcome
I lift my eyes to heaven
from where my help comes.

Praying, I ask for relief,
from my swollen eyes
knowing the One I believe
will listen to my cries.

Whenever I am restless,
when my fears overpower
I lift my eyes to heaven
to the One who’ll empower.

I let my mind engulf,
the magnitude of His grace
the One who’s full of mercy
gives me peace to embrace.

Whenever I am sad,
I lift my head up high
knowing that my tears . . .
the One I trust will dry!

My Comforter ~

I have me a companion,
a Friend that is constant
someone who will come
to my aid in an instant.

Someone I can lean on,
when I need to be soothed
someone I can trust
when I need the truth.

Someone who will cry,
right along with me
someone who understands
my deepest, soulful need.

Someone who is strong,
whenever I am weak
someone who brings joy
whenever I feel bleak.

Jesus gave to me,
His Spirit as my Helper
and I always run to Him
whenever I need shelter!

Jesus is There For You ~

We rush and we fuss,
but we get nowhere
so much to do
it doesn’t seem fair.

No one to support us,
or give a helping hand
sometimes it feels . . .
like we’re in quicksand.

But, lift up your head,
and open your eyes
look for His saving light
in those dark skies.

For, Jesus is there,
watching out for you
He’s there to help us
in whatever we do.

So no need to panic,
fuss, rush, or sink
Jesus is our helper
the strongest link.

Things will get better,
as they always do . . .
when you let His Spirit
guide and lead you!
