I was immediately interested in the poster which was displayed in the RED  CROSS shop on Waiheke Island near Auckland. It must have been hanging there already for a long time because not only the words “COMMITMENT to Humanity” were written on the poster, but it was also written on the poster that the RED CROSS started in NZ in 1931 and that the RED CROSS celebrated 75 years in this country in 2006. This is now 2009!

There is also a RED CROSS shop here in New Lynn, where I am staying now. There is a sign “Celebrating five years in New Lynn”.

I picked up also a RED CROSS magazine . On the front page is written: “Improving the lives of vulnerable people.” Another headline on the frontpage is “Our world is in a mess. It’s time to make a move.” Almost on the last page are 25 NZ RED CROSS workers listed, who are working around the globe. One worker is listed under Thailand working on water and sanitation. I am especially interested in Thailand, because I worked there as a missionary.

Are you impressed with those people, who are committed to humanity, who are improving the lives of vulnerable people, who are working on water and sanitation? I think we should be impressed.

But I am really impressed with those people, who are committed to preaching the GOSPEL of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible says: Please read Second Corinthians 5:17 and John 4:10!
