Being Amiable
Good relationship

Amiable qualities

The Precious Gem
How precious are
God’s thoughts
how vast is the
sum of them
if it could
be counted
it would be
more than
the grains
of sand
God’s thoughts
are precious
like the precious
diamond
the precious gem.
O What Love
O that Love can never fail
O what Love so pure and true
O that Love brings hope and joy
O what Love is so divine.
Another Season
Another season in Your creation
Enters the autumn scene
Bright periods of sunshine
And cooler evenings
The warmth of Your love
Towards every living being.
Soliloquy Retold
The stage is set
in the courtyard
of a beautifully decorated
heritage home
mother-of-pearl furniture
antique ornaments
tiled marble flooring.

A charming young lady
from a wealthy family
attractively dressed
in traditional sarong kebaya*
Anxious eyes focussed
captive audience
sits herself
on the intricately
carved rosewood chair.

She explains
marriage was arranged
it wasn’t her choice
mixed feelings
emotional turmoil
cultural differences
testings and tauntings
but character
confident and respectful
learned fast
to relate well.
~
Intelligent, witty, creative
humble character
she soon won their hearts
many talents
culinary skills
musically gifted.
~
As she relates her story
audience was in awe.
A difficult relationship
it just takes
one determined person
to make a positive difference
all’s well that ends well.
~
Enthusiastic audience
cheered
clapped heartily
she smiles
takes a bow.

A Drifting World
Is life merely existing
in a world that is just drifting?
Coping with the pressures in living
gives little hope to the human being.
Trusting in the promises of God
His faithfulness and righteous ways
help through trials and difficult days.
Healing In Affliction
The vulnerable and marginalised of society,
Are dependent on appropriate help and treatment,
In Your love and compassion,
Lord, give comfort and healing in their affliction.
Building A Rapport
With someone you care about
or work with
It involves
taking time
making time
spending time
getting to know the person
~
With time
perseverance
mutual understanding
acceptance
the confidence
and trust grow
in building
a good rapport.
Help Along The Way
An encouraging word, a smiling face, a helping hand,
Brightens a would-be dreary day,
Teach us Lord at these times to reach out,
To help someone along the way.
No Longer Alone
No one need be lonely,
In the friendship of His Love,
True friends He’ll bring along your path,
Pointing you to a fulfilling relationship,
Make Him your priority.
