A Special Friend
by Tesh Njokanma 1/30/2013 / Poetry
Somewhere along this journey of life,
I met someone special.
At first I didn't know how special He was
Until the day I felt so lonely,
The day I felt so troubled and was greatly discouraged.
It was then I realized I had someone special.
I realized I had an invaluable treasure.
I realized I had someone
Who would never leave me
Would always help me
Would keep shielding me
And forever would be there for me.
I found a friend
I found Jesus!
"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends" John 16:13
