The one
Who seek my help
Fiercer than me
Quietly
Lend a helping hand
Care to help
Begin to a new realisation
Such a vicious cycle
An unbreakable pattern
A help cry to pay a bill
Due to overseas and reaching due date
Lending readily out of care
Promise to return it once return
I remind to pay continuous
The recipient demands its way to return
The fire inside me
Demands
Self-respect
The water inside me
Prevents
Fire from spreading like wildfire
The green nature inside me
Keeps
Water and fire in balance
The sunshine inside me
Enable
Cheerfulness despite heartache
Inspiration On: Sunday, 18 June 2016
I begin to realise about myself. I am questioning myself. Why do people tend to look down on me? Why those who ask for help speak disrespectfully to me? Yet I still care about them. After much thought, I am a people pleaser. Not just that, I also learn that Jesus is the One whom I want to please. The book about asserting myself helps me how to create a healthy boundary. I can still help others with the set aside time. Now I need to earn a living to care for my family and myself. Inside I still want to serve God. Do I overdo it, Lord? Wish you all have good days and thank you.

I can totally relate to your thoughts penned in this beautiful poem. People Pleaser or Worshipper of the Almighty, people like us are often perplexed at the dilemma of to do or not to do!
Thanks. We are often perplexed at the dilemma of to do or not to do. Therefore, we need Jesus’ discernment.
Couldn’t agree more 🙂

You continue to do good, be kind, and help others. God sees all and you will be blessed. Lovely poem.
Thank you. I also screw up too.
