What Can I Do For You My Friend

A friend told me that people handle illness generally in two ways. Some will wallow in there demise but others look positively on what the Lord is doing for them. The Lord who keeps all His promises said never will He forsake you. This means that when we are as ill as we may sometimes become, sickness need never overcome us because the Lord is there. With God there what can we fear?

 

What Can I Do For You My Friend

 

When I got ill you worried for me

How could this have affected my body

And you rushed off to the Internet

Then shared the data you would get

Copious amounts sent from you who cared

An overload of conflicting facts you all shared

No one at that time could understand my pain

I had decided not to read my emails again

Didn’t want to hear the many ideas

On what people are doing nowadays

First, I’m not people, I am astoundingly unique

One friend says I had an incredible physique

Remarkably kept and bold in might

Youthful vigor and out of sight

Only this friend saw beyond the skin

Under this shell exterior and my soul within

Made me to understand that for only a while

Youthfulness will stay but eternal is my smile

From that moment my heart smiled then my lips smiled too

Red blush on my cheeks and then I knew

I was given a strength to rise up above mere vanity

Every since I was that long bouncing hair, beauty

Now more than ever I know that greater is He who is within

Dear Lord my body was never perfect but my soul is free from sin
