                       Relationship

                        Life given in sacrifice

                        still continues

                        ready to supply all needs

                        looking eagerly every morning

                        seeking fellowship

                        relationship

                        love poured out as

                        steadfast inheritance

                        redeeming past—present—future

                        listening to heart prayers.

Truth?

Pilate’s question

‘What is truth’

continues through

the decades; man’s

challenge to define

individual steps,

choose a personal

path directed by

own compass.

Working by external

gratification

missing true

relationship. Your

heartbeat of love;

waits patiently,

promised way

now and eternal

only answer.

Reflection Questions

1.     How difficult is it for us to accept that the One who created all also wants to speak with each of us one-to-one?

2.     What do we lose when we resist His ‘ownership’?

3.     Why do we often build up our own defined worlds instead? Out of arrogance? Or fear? Or…..?
