rendered helpless..

what do you do when someone has a problem?
what do you do when someone has a problem and turns to you for help?
what do you do when someone has a ginormous problem and turns to you for help?
what do you do when someone, who is extremely close to you, has a ginormous problem and turns to you for help?
what do you do when someone, who is extremely close to you, has a ginormous problem and turns to you for help but you cant and dont know what to do?

1230 - my hair, after taking its own sweet time, was finally dry
0100 - about to sleep
0130 - the call on my hp came
0530 - the call ended, the friend crying and the other crying for the friend

i've never been more helpless than before.
this person really means so so so much to me, perhaps more than i'll ever admit.
and it hurts so bad not to be able to provide a solution or even a temporary comfort.
all i can do now is to kneel down and pray.

The bumps and bruises along life's way
Are softened when you stop and pray...
God will always listen to you
Gently guiding all you do...
