I have a mate #1

I have a mate who is a builder. I've always thought he was a bit accident prone which is probably not a good thing in his business.
Anyway, at church on Sunday we were encouraged to write a poem about what sort of week we've had, this was shared in small impromptu groups and then we prayed for each other in our groups. (we do something along these lines every Sunday).
This is my friends poem...

When I fall and break my elbow,
You make me a very brave fellow
because I can trust in You.

When I fall and twist my ankle,
And it's sitting at a funny angle
You're helping me find new directions.

When I've broken my heel,
It's the pain that I feel
to remind me what You went through.

When I've fallen off the scaffold,
You help me be so very bold,
and say You'll lift me up.

When the saw cuts through my thumb,
I remember You're the one
who takes care of me when I'm dumb
