When I was Full
Written By: Ahava © 2001
 
When I was full of blessing – giving out much;
my life was full of Christian friends.
When the attack of satan’s onslaught began;
the faithfulness of brethren came to an end.
 
I’ve ministered to you in order for you to stay free.
Not one of you had a kind word for me.
For all the love that I’ve poured from my heart;
instead of standing with me, these ones did depart.
 
I spoke with you and taught you God’s word.
My prayers on your behalf by God were heard.
I gave you my knowledge and my heart too;
in my time of trail – where were you?
 
Not an encouraging word – not even a prayer;
Not even a scripture – to let me know you care.
You turned your face and looked away;
saying you’ll return in my better day.
 
Jesus said there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
In my time of trial, I’ve learned only Jesus and no other.
 
Proverbs 17:17
A friend loves at all times, a brother is born for adversity.
 
Matthew 26:38-40
My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch. My father if it is possible may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will. Then He returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour?”
 
Ecclesiastes 4:12
Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor. If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up. If two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone. Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three is not quickly broken.
 
This poem is dedicated to the 2 people who are real in my life. They are the friends that love at all times, if I fell, they would pick me up and if something overpowered me, they would rescue me.
