Gift of Growth in Life

A gift of plants comes with its bloom.

It makes me happy, oh, there is love to tend.

Something growing in my little home

reminds me of my dear friend.

Every drop of water and every tender care

They come with prayers to the heavenly Father.

Sometimes it makes me cry thinking of you. 

Thankful. Joyful. Not that I feel blue.

But our Lord has been faithful to us two.

and I cannot stop thanking Him for you.

Thank you for showing me how to love though you were despised.

For reminding me to look above and making me well-advised.

Press on a little more, oh, dear friend.

The time will come when we will rejoice in heaven.

Thankful for a little reminder today to pray for our friends. God has been so merciful to bless us with godly friends.
