A Friend - Brenton Miers


Father, you came to me first, not as God, nor creator, but as a friend.

You have given me hope when I had none.
Shared your love when I had none to share and held me safe in your arms of eternity.
You have opened up the doors to my soul and shown me that which is, was and could be. 
I love thee beyond all.

For you are the open hand, the whisper in my silence, the light in the darkness.

And I my Lord God, am but a shadow in your light, an echo from a word passed, a child lost in a world of children.

A child who will always need a friend.
