Thicker.

Dear Blood,

Before you turn a cold shoulder and let a tear escape from your weary eyes, think not on the emptiness within your closed eyelids.

Don't be ignorant, and don't take us for granted.
Don't think that your family has alienated you; where are you most of the time?
Don't think that your leaders have forgotten about you; who else is still praying, even after all this time, for you?
Don't think that your friends have deserted you; who else are you talking to every day?
Don't think that you're not loved.

Look around you.

You have a family who is willing to lay down all that they do, just to see you rise again.
You have a leader- no, many, who would earnestly and diligently pray over you, just so you would realise that they would support you to the very end.
You have friends, and they aren't being ghostly towards you, but you've shut your eyes from them as well.
And you have Him. God, all you need IS Him. He was willing to lay down His life for you, just to show you that He loves you.

Don't tell me you don't have enough. Love is all around. So just look at what you're surrounded by.

LOL, Sarah.
Yeah, it's exclusive, but it could be about you.
