Years back, three friends went on a missions trip.
They feared that the time would be wasted.
I prayed for that trip before and during.
My prayers seemed unanswered.
Years later, I learned that the relationships formed
During that ridiculous and poisonous trip
Were vital through some dark days.
Were my prayers unanswered?
I look back through the years.
My circle of friends has increased from the three,
So of the seven who went,
I count seven dear friends.
I could say that my prayers were answered
Slant.
Humbly, O God, I thank you.
