“AUTHORISED REPAIR CENTRES”

Posted on by

“Authorised Repair Centres”

“When charging any shaver for the first time, put on charge for a full 24 hours.”

 I am doing that just now, the green indicator light is going on and off and the 24 hours are almost up.

When I bought the shaver, (Remington)  I did not only receive a USE & CARE INSTRUCTION MANUAL, but also a list with all the AUTHORISED REPAIR CENTRES.

All the Authorised Repair Centres in Australia and New Zealand are listed. I live in New Zealand in Kaitaia in the north of the country and the nearest Authorised Repair Centre is in Whangarei. That is more than 150 km away , but  that is the place where I go for repairs!

I don’t need to tell you why.

****************

Where do you go with your anxieties? (First Peter 5:7)

Where do you go with your requests? (Philippians 4:6)

Where do you go with your needs? (Isaiah 58:11; Philippians 4:19)

Where do you go for counselling? (Psalm 16:7)

With my anxieties, my requests, my needs and when I need counselling  I go to the LORD JESUS CHRIST!

I don’t need to tell you why.

SILENCE

“A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect than the most well-intentioned words.” –  Rachel Naomi Remen

THE BIBLE SAYS:

“….., IN QUIETNESS…………IS YOUR STRENGTH, …….” –

I am adjusting to my new Shaver

Posted on by

I am adjusting to my new shaver (REMINGTON, Titanium Pivot & Flex, F4790).

“USE & CARE INSTRUCTION MANUAL” , I am reading on the first page of the manual. And underneath it says “Please read prior to use”.

“Before using , read the important safety instructions in this manual.” I am reading that on page four of the manual.

But that is not all. “Before charging, study instruction manual”, it says on the Power adaptor.

I am impressed!

“Please read prior to us.” “Before using,…” “Before charging,..” And it does not only say “read”, but “study”.

Just as I do not ignore the instruction manual for my shaver,  I do not ignore the instruction manual for my life.

The Bible is the instruction manual for my life. The BIBLE is our manual of our knowledge of God. The Bible is our manual of divine truth. The BIBLE is our manual to everlasting life.

I am reading the manual, I am studying the manual.

But how many people do? How many parents are true followers of the Lord Jesus Christ?  (How do we get this generation back to God?) How many parents are impressing the commandments of the BIBLE on their children?

What does the BIBLE say about the commandments?

“Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.”

Deuteronomy 6:7-9
