Above all else guard your heart, for it is the well spring of life. Proverbs 4:23

He WILL Be Strong

Relationships. Ah, they're exhausting. Yet super incredible and wholeheartedly worth it. But what do you do when you don't have all the answers (which is a lot)? When your burden is so heavy for someone, it almost consumes all your thoughts and makes you wanna punch Satan in the face.

Lord, I lift my friend to You, I've done all that I know to do
I lift my friend to You
Complicated circumstances have clouded his view
Lord, I lift my friend up to You

I fear that I won't have the words that he needs to hear
I pray for Your wisdom, oh God, and a heart that's sincere
Lord, I lift my friend up to You

Lord, I lift my friend to You
My best friend in the world, I know he means much more to You
I want so much to help him, but this is something he has to do
And Lord, I lift my friend up to You

'cause there's a way that seems so right to him
But You know where that leads
He's becoming a puppet of the world, too blind to see the strings
Lord, I lift my friend up to You
My friend up to You

Lord, I lift my friend to You, I've done all that I know to do
I lift my friend to You 

(From Casting Crown's Prayer For A Friend) 

From one of my favorite songs, For The Moments I Feel Faint by Relient K...
"You're telling me there is no hope, I'm telling you you're wrong. When the world around you crumbles, He will be strong. He will be strong."
