Phil. 5:6 " In everything present your requests to God."
There is nothing like sharing your heart with a close and true friend. That's must be what Charles C. Converse was thinking about Jesus when he penned this hymn.
That is my prayer today ~ to meditate on those words that remind me I can take my deepest hurts and hidden secrets to Jesus in Prayer, because He is my Friend.
What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer.
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer!
Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care!
Precious Savior, still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In His arms He'll take and shield three.
Thou wilt find a solace there.
Amen
