This is SO beautiful. "That You would dare to call me friend ..." ... full of tears, my eyes, by then. This is such a moving, moving testimony of your faith, and of your humility in handing everything to God.

I will say this: there is a SINCERITY and a HUMILITY in your writing, that sometimes (dare I say) eludes some other "faith music" I have heard. You communicate the essence of faith. It's so easy to sound all high, mighty and pharisaical in one's faith, I find ... you do NOT sound like that in the slightest; you are the anti-thesis of that. In other words, you keep it real.

May God bless you, help you in your personal struggles (genuinely sorry to hear that you are struggling - I don't understand why that happens to people, but there we are ... you're humbler than I am, perhaps, in the way you hand it over to God ...) ... and, when things are too hard for you to walk the path any more, and you kneel, may He raise you up and, if needed, carry you in His arms.
