I WILL BE THERE

I Will Be Here(Steven Curtis Chapman)

Tomorrow morning if you wake up and the sun does not appear. I will be here. If in the dark, we lose sight of love Hold my hand, and have no fear' Cause I will be here.

I will be here When you feel like being quiet, When you need to speak your mind, I will listen. And I will be here When the laughter turns to cryin' Through the winning, losing and trying we'll be together. I will be here.

Tomorrow morning, if you wake up And the future is unclear I will be here. Just as sure as seasons were made for change, Our lifetimes were made for these years So I will be here.

I will be here And you can cry on my shoulder. When the mirror tells us we're older I will hold you. And I will be here To watch you grow in beauty, And tell you all the things you are to me I will be here. I will be true to the promise I have made To you and to the One who gave you to me. Tomorrow morning, if you wake up And the sun does not appear, I will be here Oh, I will be here.

A good friend of mine lost her Father yesterday. As I have been pondering words of comfort I can share with her, this song kept coming to my mind. I am constantly reminded by our Father in Heaven how important it is for us to be there for each other, "to comfort one another and bare one another's burdens..." I can't fix all of the hurts in life, but there is something I have or can do to ease the heart ache of someone in my life. I know there is always someone in my own life that I can count on. My sister, my forever friend, my mom ... there are friends from church and from my family, from sorority, from every place in my life, each letting me know that I am never alone. I am so truely blessed to have each and everyone of you in my life! I can't begin to name names, because I am sure I would leave somebody out ... I know that you know who you are! My message here is simple today, thank you for being there for me ...always. For your love and caring and listening ear and encouraging words in my life and thank you for lifting me with your love! My promise to you is that: tomorrow morning when you wake up, if the sun does not appear, I will be here ... I will always be there for you!
