for the sake of my friend

*takes a deep breath*

alright, i guess the best way to do this is to just post what happened.

alright. it was friday night and me and my very very dear friend (dear to me like i have thoughts of marrying her one day) were at a flyleaf concert in my hometown and we ended up hanging out outside of the venue because it was so small and was way too loud. while we were hanging out my friend got a call from her mom that her uncle was in the hospital and that he was dying. needless to say we went there as fast as we could and shortly after we got there a doctor came into her family's waiting room and announced to her family that her uncle was dead.

i love this young lady very much and i don't know that i will ever forget the image or the sounds of her crying on the way to the hospital. i thank God that i was there to offer even a little bit of comfort to her when she needed it and i honestly hope that i can be forgiven if there was something that i should have done that i failed to do. my heart's grieved enough to break over this, yet at the same time i don't know that i would ask to change anything except to take my friends pain away.

anyways, all i ask is for those to read this to pray as the Lord leads you to pray, especially for the family of the man who died. it would mean a great deal to me. thank you all.

Praying.... <3
Footprints in the sand by Carolyn Joyce Carty

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the lord.

Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene he noticed two sets of foot prints in the sand: one belonging to him the other to the lord.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the foot prints in the sand.

He noticed that name times along the path of his life there was only one set o footprints.

He also noticed that it was at the lowest and saddest times of his life.

This really bothered him and he questioned the lord about it:

"lord, you said once i decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But i have noticed during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of foot prints. I dont understand why when i needed you most you would leave me."

The lord replied:

"My son, my precious child, I love you and would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that i carried you."

I don't think there was anything else you could have possibly done. I'm sure she appreciates the shoulder to cry on during this difficult time for her and her family. I'll be praying.

P.S. In a world filled with all those crazy men that are depicted on TV, it's refreshing to see a young man do something selfless. :)

just wanted to update you all as to what's been transpiring in recent days, my friend's uncle's funeral service was held tuesday and the burial/cremation is being held on friday, any further prayers would be appreciated for the family, especially for the son of the deceased uncle because as i understand it he was sentenced to 10 years in prison only a couple of weeks ago and won't be able to attend any of the services for his father
