The Ultimate Friend

Father, you came to me first, not as God, nor creator, but as a friend. You have given me 

hope when I had none. Shared your love when I had none to share, and held me safe in 

your arms of eternity. You have opened up the doors to my soul and shown me that which 

is, was and could be. I love thee beyond all. For you are the open hand, the whisper in my 

silence, the light in the darkness. And I, my Lord God, am but a shadow in your light, an 

echo from a word passed, a child lost in a world of children…A child who will always need a 

friend.
