DOUBTS

It was almost 8 am and she said, “I don’t think that he will come”.

The evening before they had received a phone call and a male voice had announced, “I am coming tomorrow at 8 in the morning to pick up the plant. I saw your advertisement in the local paper.”

And yes, it was 8 am or there abouts when he arrived in a taxi to get the advertised orchid.

In the same way we are doubting at times the promises of the Lord Jesus Christ. But what does it say in Luke 18:7?

NOTLANDUNG VOR GOTTES BOTSCHAFT

Stader Tageblatt–22. 05. 2008

Wellington (AFP). Nach einer Notlandung und einem Stossgebet haben sich zwei Neuseelaender Gottes Botschaft gegenueber gesehen. Grant Stubbs und Owen Wilson mussten mit ihrem Untraleichtflugzeug auf einer Wiese notlanden. Nach der Landung blickten sie auf ein Schild mit der Aufschrift “Jesus ist der Herr”.

Smoking NOT OUR FUTURE

A couple of days ago I saw some interesting posters and I took pictures of some of them. I don’t know who Jermaine Leef -C4 is but he said the following,” GROWING UP WE’D SEE OUR ELDERS SMOKING BUT WE NEED TO BREAK THE PATTERN.” And underneath it says, “Smoking not our future.”

Of course smoking is not our future and those who smoke need to break the pattern.

If I remember correctly I saw the sign “SMOKING KILLS” in one shop.

But I know what our FUTURE is. Our future is the Word of the Living God. And there we also need to break the pattern. We need to break the pattern of not making the Word of God known to the NEXT GENERATION.

But we are probably not excited enough about the Bible to make the message of the Bible known to the next generation? The schools are still open for Bible in Schools Teachers.  (Religious Education or Instruction)

Let us read what the BIBLE says in Isaiah 38:19, in Psalm 22:30,31 and Psalm 145:3-7. (New International Version)

Vers 4 : “One generation will commend your works to another;..”

Verses 4-7:

They will tell, they will speak, they will tell again, they will celebrate and they will joyfully sing– of your righteousness. Notice also that David says, I will meditate, I will proclaim.

ARE WE DOING THAT?
