You are my rock and my fortress

[shortlady]

YOU ARE MY ROCK AND MY FORTRESS; THEREFORE,
FOR YOUR NAME'S SAKE LEAD ME AND GUIDE ME.
( PSALM 31:3 *NKJV )


A good friend is worth more than gold, for they
will stick by you through good times or bad. For, A MAN
WHO HAS FRIENDS MUST HIMSELF BE FRIENDLY, BUT
THERE IS A FRIEND WHO STICKS CLOSER THAN A
BROTHER. ( PROVERBS 18:24 )

Jesus Christ is such a friend, for He has said: "YOU ARE
MY FRIENDS IF YOU DO WHATEVER I COMMAND YOU.
NO LONGER DO I CALL YOU SERVANTS, FOR A SERVANT
DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HIS MASTER IS DOING; BUT I
HAVE CALLED YOU FRIENDS, FOR ALL THINGS THAT I
HEARD FROM MY FATHER I HAVE MADE KNOWN TO
YOU." ( JOHN 15:15-16 )

Therefore I will share a poem with you about our dearest
friend, Jesus Christ. I hope that you will enjoy it!

The Dearest Friend!

I have a Friend in Jesus,
He's ever walking near
To share my every burden
And take away my fear.

It's in His precious name I pray
To our God above;
It's through His sacred teachings that
I learned the way to love.

God did not put me on this earth
To walk life's path alone;
He sent His Son to be my Guide,
The dearest Friend I've known.

No other One could be so true,
He bore the cross for me;
Because He died for my sins
I must ever faithful be.

If you are lonely on life's way
And feel that no one cares,
You have a Friend in Jesus
If you will kneel in prayer.
Poet, Kay Hoffman
