Dear Father, You have given me so much, You have blessed me beyond words
With the brothers and sisters in Christ You have provided for me, their words are songs on a record
You knew I needed them, and You brought them in your holy perfect timing
But I won't lie, my hands cover my face to hide my tears, I am ashamed to admit I'm dying
Is it so wrong Lord? That I weep over them? That this is my last year?
Will I be a forgetten memory? Will I even see them again?.. There are countless fears...
What connections will be cut? Will this bring me closer or more apart with them?
Do I dare let go of the place you have called me to go? The place where my faith has increased? They are more precious than gems.
I beg You Lord, I know it's almost half way over, but I know it isn't fully over yet...
But my God, I surrender my fears and these emotions, these people I never want to forget
I treasure them Lord, more then they'll ever know! You know how long I have suffered to FINALLY find true close friends who burn for You!
Please I beg You Abba, don't make this come an end... Allow me to still share some moments with the ones I hold close, you know my desired view
I do not know what the future holds... Only You do... I am lost and in wonder what will happen a year from now, or two, or three, or four, or five.
But... You do, I have no control, I'd be a fool to try to take the wheel... I pray these relationships were meant to last, You used them to keep me alive!
...even if it is the end... I pray Lord You bless them, give them a great long, blessed life... even if it means I must suffer and end up alone...
Protect them, even if it means for me to remove my shield, if it's better Lord for me to remove my self from them for their benefit, I'll gladly accept being disowned
Do Whatever Is Best For Them
Do Whatever Is Best For Me.
Even if it isn't what I desire and long for... Even if it tears me apart the inside out, at least they'll be set free
Lord, I love them with all my might, You know I'd give up anything and do anything for these brothers and sisters in Christ
But Lord, You hold the past, present, and future in your palm, You know what will happen, and I know with You, I don't dare to fight
You have led me to find them, I'd be heart broken to loose them, I give this prayer to you my King, my Shepard, my Father
I don't want to be pulled away from them, please , continue to use me to help their faith become stronger
Dear Savoir, I thank You for the wonderful blessed times I have had with them
It's only through Your mercy and grace I was able to be apart of this beloved churches hem
So God, Allow Me To Thank You Lord Before It's Over...
*Because I don't know what the end may bring...
Thank you everyone at the beloved church I call home. For making me aware of my flaws and getting me through the toughest battles. For strengthening my faith and trust in the Lord, and helping me up whenever I fell into sin... You Brothers and Sisters in Christ are an answer to prayer. I won't stop praying for you. I KNOW the Lord will use you guys to help and guide others. Every day I praise him, for I KNOW i could have never asked for greater God seeking friends
Thank You So Much, you know who you are :)
