Had I Known

Dear Friend,

Had I known that you hide something inside your cheerfulness,
I would invite you to have dinner, and perhaps you would tell me some of your problems

Had I been more sensitive that you are facing difficult situation
I would call you and pray for you over the phone, and perhaps you would be stronger inside

Had I not too busy thinking of my own problems and circumstances
I would notice that there were something in you that cries out for attention, and perhaps you will feel that you were not all alone

Had I known that things have become too rough for you
I would try my best to find solution that may lighten your burdens, and perhaps I would still find you by my side now

Friend,
It is never too late to start again
Our God is God of second change
It is your love to God that inspires me to know God deeper each day
It is my mistake to let life routine draw us apart

Now I pray for you each time I remember of you
God loves you more than anything else in the whole universe
You may see your problems as gigantic wall
But for Him, it's just a speck of dust

I pray that you find Him wherever you are
You are His and nothing could ever change that
I believe by faith that we gonna meet again
By that time I hope you would have forgiven me
for not being there during your hardest time...
