I have a poem I keep in my bible I'd like to share & it's called: My Friend--you may have heard it.<br /><br />My friend, I stand in judgment now<br />and feel that you're to blame somehow.<br />On earth I walked with you by day<br />and never did you point the way.<br />My knowledge then was very dim,<br />you could have led me safe to Him.<br />Though we ived together here on earth,<br />you never told me of the second birth.<br />and now I stand this day condemned<br />because you failed to mention Him.<br />You taught me many things, that's true.<br />I called you friend and trusted you.<br />But I learn now that it's too late<br />and you could have kept me from this fate<br />We walked by day and talked by night<br />and yet you showed me not the light.<br />You let me live and love and die.<br />You knew I'd never live on high.<br />Yes, I called you friend in life<br />and trusted you through joy and strife.<br />And yet on coming to this dreadful end<br />I cannot now call you my friend.<br />[Author unknown]<br />I keep this glued in my bible because it reminds me why I'm here. Yes, Matthew did what he was suppose to do & I know the Lord is smiling down on him saying, "job well done".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4428815718186476699.post-44190181779543210992010-05-18T15:59:48.997-05:002010-05-18T15:59:48.997-05:00He didn't really get in trouble, he just stirr...He didn't really get in trouble, he just stirred up some trouble for the school. I was very blessed at how supportive and understanding they were. They did not want to do anything to discourage Matthew's zealous testimony. They just wanted Matt to be aware of what was going on. I have been blessed beyond belief at his school this year and their incredible staff. He has a little mission field, but luckily he is not alone. He is just the only one allowed to be BOLD. I am very proud of him. I love that child.Monica Hawkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00857654139764481254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4428815718186476699.post-84897427414444859742010-05-18T15:03:01.731-05:002010-05-18T15:03:01.731-05:00Well I am in shock he "got in trouble", ...Well I am in shock he "got in trouble", but what else would I expect in these times we live ?
