Prayer for a Friend - Casting Crowns

This is such a beautiful song and prayer. It is a beautiful way to show love for someone, through prayer, and forgiveness. Allow God, through all the painful situations you go through, to keep making you into the image of His Son.

I’m sure a lot of us can relate to the lyrics of this song. Especially when it says, “ I've done all that I can do, I lift my friend to you.” Some of us call our spouses our best friends, and they very well should be. But there is no denying that the road can get very tough at times. No matter who you consider a friend, and you are just exhausted with words, lift them up to the Almighty, to the Great I Am!  "He will not grow tired or weary." (Isaiah 40:28).

Galatians 6:9 tells us, “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Don't let the voices you hear make you feel foolish for walking the path Jesus put you on. Listen to the One that matters, and YOU WILL reap a harvest.  It’s a promise of God’s, and in HIS TIME, when the situation, and all the work, is complete, you will! "[He] shall loose none of all those [He's] given to me." (John 6:39).

There is nothing too big for God, or to hard. You have to believe that with all your heart, mind, and soul.

Our best friend in the world means much more to God. We want so much to help someone, but it all comes down to them really wanting it for themselves. So if you don’t have the words to give them anymore, and you've done all that you can do, trust God in prayer, and lift them up to our merciful Father.
