Poetry
In a world short on friendship
Where most people walk away,
Let us reach out to others,
Shine some light into their day.
Christ’s disciples are His friends—
It’s a friendship we must share—
Where we walk, may Jesus walk,
Let our lives our faith declare!
To cultivate true friendship
You must want to be a friend,
To reach with Christ’s compassion
Far beyond where our love ends.
True friendship has no asking price,
Demands no payback or reward;
Jesus is our great example—
He came as Servant though He’s Lord.
If we really love our neighbour
We’ll do him good by word and act,
When Christ’s Word’s put into practice,
Our Christian life’s a living tract!

A very convicting poem. This world is short on friendship. It's so easy to be too busy for time consuming relationships, but those relationships could lead to the salvation of souls. We need to get off the merry-go-round and simplify our lives so that we have time for what's important. I love the phrase "a living tract." A very good reminder of what we are called to be. Thank you for this one. Linda
