Tomato plants

We have been away for almost a week. Before we went to Auckland my wife positioned young tomato plants near the window. When we came back today all the plants were bent leaning towards the light coming through the window.

I found that very interesting because it says in the Bible, “….but men loved darkness instead of light because…..” John 3:19

We can learn even from the small tomato plants.

Our quiet Time

Some of you may know that we have been in Thailand for thirteen years. I like thai food and as there are a good number of Thai restaurants in Auckland I had a meal in one of them on our recent trip to the city.

When I watched the thai lady there putting food on a shelf and praying in front of the shelf I was reminded of Thailand.

Once I stayed in a hotel in the northeast of Thailand (Khon Kaen) and I saw a man praying in front of the spirit house of the hotel. I talked to him and apparently he is doing that every morning and every evening.

What a challenge for believers in the Lord Jesus Christ to praise God every morning and every evening and to pray and read the Bible.
