So, one of my dear friends has had to deal with a lot of pain lately. It's worse today than it was a few days ago, and I hate that he's in pain. I've told him SO many times that I wish I could take that pain upon myself so that he doesn't have to bare it. Every time he says though that he wouldn't want that. I feel so helpless, and wish that I could do more. I know this won't do a whole lot, but I hope through a poem that I wrote for him this afternoon that he'll just be able to remember that I'm here for him and remind him that he's not alone through anything. He's got his friends, family,and even more importantly God there for him. And, if everyone could help me to pray for him, we'd both appreciate it SO much. So without further ado, I give you my poem.  

My Brother Is In Pain

My brother is in pain

and there is nothing I can do.

My heart feels so helpless

and I really want to help you.

I’d willingly take some of it,

If it would decease your pain

or even all of it

so that you’d never feel that pain again.

My brother, my dear brother, is in pain

and there is not much I can do.

So, I’ll stay here by your side

and do what I can to help you.

By showing that I really care,

maybe even a hug or two,

Some prayer, some smiles,

and maybe some laughter too.

My brother, my dear brother,

let me help you if I can,

to help you bare this pain

until we are all together in Heaven.

And that, Ladies and Gentlemen, is my poem for my brother, who is also my best friend. I love you, man, as my brother in Christ! And I'm here for you always! :)

Te quiero!! (That means 'I love you' in Spanish) I truly and purely love all of you as my siblings in Christ!!

Amor, tu hermana en Cristo, (Love, your sister in Christ)

Sarah
