LEAN ON ME
Dear readers, I have promised to always share thoughts that will bless you at any time. In this post, I picked up the lyrics of "Lean on Me" by Bill Withers and added some comments that will help us to know we always need someone to lean on. Kindly read, share with friends, and leave your comments.
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain, we all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
PERSONAL NOTE:
● We can’t be self-sufficient, God has positioned people around us to lean on.
● We can’t be strong all our lives, there will be times when we'll be weak and need someone to lean on to regain our strength. ‘Iron sharpeneth Iron.
● Everyone has issues, problems, and pains. No one should ever feel their issues are more than their neighbor's.
● Frowning doesn't take away your worries or pain. A little smile is therapeutic for you.
● The Bible says joy cometh in the morning after weeping has lasted for a night. Psalm 30:5. Being alive is an opportunity to see brighter and better days.
Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need somebody to lean on
PERSONAL NOTE:
● We must give our shoulders to friends when they are in need.
● A friend in need is truly a friend indeed. We should carry each other’s burden and put smiles on people’s faces.
● Your friend won’t lean on you forever, it’s just for a moment. Learn to receive friends when they need to lean on you.
Please, swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you won't let show
PERSONAL NOTE:
● It doesn’t cost you anything to ask for help when you need to.
● Don’t allow your pride to deprive you of receiving help.
● You can’t have all you need, you still need people around you to help you.
● If you don’t ask for help, it certainly means you don’t need help, which is a big lie.
● When we cry for help at the time we need to, it saves us from unnecessary pain.
● God has positioned people that will meet your needs around you, all you need is to ask.
● Don’t take people for granted when you need help, extortion will only deprive you of getting further help from them.
You just call on me, brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
PERSONAL NOTE:
● We are all human. The difference between us is our DNA, genotype, parents, color, or background. It doesn't change the fact that we are brothers and sisters (we are one family)
● No matter how wealthy or healthy you are, you will always need somebody to lean on.
● We all have problems that someone else could understand better. Sharing it with the person will bring solutions when you learn to lean on people.
If there is a load
You have to bear that you can't carry
I'm right up the road, I'll share your load
If you just call me
PERSONAL NOTE:
● When you carry your burdens alone, it weighs you down.
● Don’t be proud and feel you can do all things alone. Yes, I know the Bible says I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. But the Bible also says to comfort one another. God knows there are moments when we will need someone around us to cheer us up and move on with life.
● We even get discouraged at times with life and all we need is someone to lean on and tell us the future is bright.
Remain blessed.
