I'd like to introduce you to a friend of mine.

I have a friend who has become a constant visitor at my house.
He has been here for years and yet I never tire of his company.
When I talk he listens to everything I say.
He never judges ,nor does he criticize.
However I must admit when he talks to me,sometimes I don't really pay attention.
It's not that he bores me or anything,
It's just that sometimes I just don't want to hear what he has to say,
Because it's not in compliance to what I want to hear.
We have a lot in common though,
He has been been hurt by the people who were supposed to love him,
And so have I.
I am amazed at how he is able to offer forgiveness,
When I am not.
And as he tells me his story I begin to realize that his struggle was so much harder than mine.
I couldn't imagine being in some of the situations he was in and then turning around and forgiving the
people who harmed him.
As the pain comes and goes throughout my body,
And I fell like I'm living in despair.
He is right by my side comforting me.
Every visit to the hospital he's right there sitting with me ever so patiently.
He never complains about how long the wait is ,
Nor does he check his watch.
And on the few times that I felt like giving up,
He allowed me to see that someone else had a worse situation than me.

Some of my family and friends have met my friend through me
And I've made a lot of friends through him.
I'm amazed at how many people know my friend,
And even more amazed that there are still a lot of people who don't.
When I ask some of the ones who don't know him to meet him and get to know him
for themselves,
Their kinda iffy because they feel that he would not want to be a part of their lives.
But I let them know he doesn't judge or discriminate.
He accepts you for who you are.
My friend is awesome and I don't mind letting everybody know it.
As matter of fact he is a member of royalty,
He's the son of a King!!
The greatest ruler of this earth!
And every time I say his name I feel power.

Without further ado, I would like to introduce to some and reacquaint to others my friend and confidant...
