What a Friend

Happy Sunday Everyone

It's a beautiful day in South Florida, although it may drizzle a little later. 

The title "What a friend" brings sooo many memories...I'm baptist so that was clearly the song of my life, along with Amazing grace of course. 
When you hear someone start off saying "What a friend", in most cases you know that person (friend) must be someone very special. There may be that friend who loaned you money when you needed it the most, or maybe even offered you a ride to work when you just couldn't make it. Either way, "What a friend".


Each day in life many of us are faced with challenges that can sometimes overwhelm us to the point of giving up. Times like this shouldn't let us down for we all should know that God is watching over us and he will never give us more than we can bear. 
Next time you feel down and out or as if there's no one to talk to, repeat this:



What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and grief’s to bear! What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer

O what peace we often forfeit O what needless pain we bear, all because we do not carry everything to God in prayer.

Ocklawaha, Florida *Historian Criminals*
