Jesus,
You are the good friend.
You promised you would always stand by me.
Truly,
though it’s rainy
or sunny
or pleasant,
you still stay with me
and give me sweet flowers.
Thank you, my friend.
Amen.

The curious case of Thai-Chinese relations: Best friends forever?
Sasiwan Chingchit – 14 March 2016 9:15AM

However, with the two countries now involved in a complicated collaboration on high speed rail, the Thai public has started to question whether China is truly its best ally.

Prayer 276
Jesus,
I do not realize now what you are doing,
but later I will understand. (1)
And now,
you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
you turned my wailing into dancing, (2)
though I never know all the steps,
I will learn to join the dance.
La la la…
Amen.
