For your consideration…

“You’ve Got A Friend”
James Taylor

When you’re down and troubled and you need a helping hand
And nothing, whoa, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights

You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am
I’ll come running, oh yeah baby, to see you again
Winter, spring, summer, or fall
All you got to do is call and I’ll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah
You’ve got a friend

If the sky… above you should turn dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud now
Soon I’ll be knocking upon your door

You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am
I’ll come running, oh yes I will, see you again
Winter, spring, summer, or fall, yeah
All you got to do is call and I’ll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, ain’t it good to know that you’ve got a friend?

People can be so cold
They’ll hurt you and desert you
Well, they’ll take your soul if you let them
Oh yeah, but don’t you let them

You just call out my name, and you know where ever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Oh baby, don’t you know about
Winter, spring, summer, or fall

Hey now, all you’ve got to do is call, Lord, I’ll be there, yes I will.
You’ve got a friend. You’ve got a friend, yeah
Ain’t it good to know you’ve got a friend
Ain’t it good to know you’ve got a friend
Oh, yeah, yeah, you’ve got a friend

Our message today came in via this James Taylor song to remind us that it is just that simple. When you are sad, confused, lost, don’t know which way to go, just want to talk, need uplifting, want to share something, etc., all we have to do is CALL up ur Guidance. It is always there for us in all things. Nothing is too big or small because there is no judgment. Indeed, we don’t even need a reason, we can just call out and our Guidance will be right there before our next breath is taken.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…
