My Friend

[SteadyRock]

My friend, 13, has always gone to Church. He does not actually come from a 'Christian' background. He has recently got in with a bad crowd. Into sexual stuff and smoking. I'm not meaning to offend anyone if they smoke, but he is only 13! He asked a girl out and she turned him down. Since then he has been acting strange. Writing her name and stuff. He says he wants to die yet he will not say anything to mne. This is strange because I am his best friend. He says it to all my other friends.
He is also saying he is fat and stuff(not to me).
He always has been a bit of an attention seeker but I am normally able to help him a bit. But this time I just can't communicate with. Him I go to a different schol so I only see him at weekends.
I really think that Goid wants him but I don't know what to do. I've never been very constant at praying and try to remember to pray for him but I constantly forget.
Please help!!!

My brother, my brother...peace and good will to you. My love do I send your way and to your friend. This is most dreary. I shall pray just as you shall for your brother (friend) and will ask God in prayer to deliver him from this if only it is by way of severe trouble, but so that he lives well from here on out. Love him well dear brother.
