My Dear Friend

[Bishop Dennis Lubow]

I have a dear friend God that has fought battles of epic proportions. Battles that most would quit, long ago. This friend has passed the gates of hell with an up hill struggle to reach you God. This friend has looked death in the eye, too many times to count, still struggling toward you God. This friend has overcome enemies, too numerous to count.

This friend has called upon your name, in the darkest moments, when in pain unbelievable, when all alone, when in moments of panic. Never forgetting the wonderful name of Jesus.

You have sent this dear friend some nurses of gold that has earned the title of sent from God. This dear friend, was surrounded with tender hands, able wipe the tears; help ease the pain, offering tender words of encouragement. This dear friend was blessed having nurses willing to sacrifice there time, never leaving her alone. Just like you God always at my friend’s side.

This friend has affected lives across the globe, people praying for this dear friend though they never met. Three families drawn into this dear friend’s life, learning to care, with a depth that travels beyond understanding. Aching to carry this friend’s pain, to carry this friend from the battle.

God we know this friend’s journey will end, a flower will bloom, shinning bright for you. A witness to your mighty power God. We may not understand all, yet you know all God. I thank God for the privilege to know this dear friend
