My Best Friend-A Poem by David Ritter

I want you to meet my best friend.
I’ve known Him for many a year
and His love for me knows no end.
With strength like that, whom shall I fear?

He’s been with me through success,
and in times I was a failure.
Whatever problem comes my way,
He is by my side with a cure.

He accepts me the way I am.
That very acceptance makes me,
in spite of all of my faults,
want to be all I can be.

He laughs with me over mistakes
and weeps with me when I am sad.
He’s been faithful throughout my life,
the best friend a man ever had.

His love for me has no limits.
He’s loyal when others turn away.
He listens to each of my hurts
and to whatever else I say.

One day I’ll see Him face-to-face,
when life on earth for me must end.
I hope then that it’s said of me,
“Jesus Christ was his best friend.”
