~ HELP ME HELP MY FRIEND ~

Dear God, I need a favor,
My friend has major grief,
She's deep in pain and sorrow, Lord,
And she badly needs relief.

I'm not sure what to do,
And I don't know what to say,
I need your help to help her,
So this is what I pray.

Help me, God, to help my friend,
Help me to understand,
Let me have her load awhile,
To lend her a helping hand.

Give her respite and escape,
Let her rest and let her sleep,
Even for a little while,
In her place, please let me weep.

I know I cannot be her,
But if I could, I would,
I hurt because she hurts so bad,
I want her to feel good.

For even just a moment, Lord,
Let her tears roll down my face.
Soothe her hurts, give me her pain,
Let me stand in my friend's place.

Please ... please ... help her, Lord,
As only you can do,
Strengthen her and strengthen me,
So I may help her. too.

Beautifully arranged and sequenced by my dearly cherished friend,
the incomparable Margi Harrell. Be sure to visit her wonderful site HERE.

Heyyyyy, Margi, you sweet thang! Remember my prayer of February 01?
If Ginny doesn't mind, I wish to dedicate this heartfelt prayer of hers to you for your health.
Hers is far more eloquent, but the Lord knows mine is no less sincere. Get well, Sweetie. I love you!

Dear sweet Ginny, how did you ever reflect the very words of my own heart so clearly and so dearly?
