DEFYING

Posted on by

wernerweb-150x150There are two similar articles in the 50+ LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE, March 2014, FORWARD 50.

One is called “Age defying” and the second is called “Keep effects of ageing at bay.”

The reader is asked to check out seven ways to rewind age.

I don’t need to tell you that all of us are going to die one of these days.

It  seems that those who “keep the effects of ageing at bay” die looking younger. Maybe they also die feeling younger.

But all of us are going to die. My message today is:

“Do a death defying act, accept Jesus.”

It says in John 1:12, “Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God – “

THE DOTS ARE HARD TO SEE

When I saw the book again, it was lying on the carpet in my room. It belonged to the pile of stuff that was going to be sold or given away.

“LIVING WITH ME,”  is written in big letters at the top of the thick volume.

When I read “LIVING WITH ME,” I am remembering what is written in the Bible, the Word of God.

“Father, I want those you have given ME to be with ME where I am,” prays the Lord Jesus Christ in John 17:24.

And NO, it is not a Christian book with the title: “LIVING WITH ME,” written by a Christian author.

It is the book: “LIVING WITH M. E.” by Dr Charles Shepherd (Medical Advisor to the M. E. Association)

The Chronic / Post-Viral Fatigue Syndrome, New edition.

All my fault, I find it hard to see the full stops behind the “M” and the “E” from a distance.

“BRINGING PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT TOGETHER”

“bringing people and the environment together,” I am reading above the entrance to the Far North Environment Center.

“the environment” – the natural world (Collins Concise Dictionary).

BRINGING PEOPLE INTO CONTACT WITH THE NATURAL WORLD, THE ENVIRONMENT.

Far North Environment Center

Far North Environment Center

Environment Centers bringing people and the environment together.

They are bringing people into contact with the land, the sea, the air, the plants. They are bringing people into contact with the animals

BRINGING PEOPLE INTO CONTACT WITH THE CREATOR OF THE WORLD.

True followers of the Lord Jesus Christ bringing people into contact with the creator of the world.

They are obedient to “THE GREAT COMMISSION”: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, …” (Matthew 28:19).

As important as our contact with the natural world is, our contact with the creator of the world is a MUST!

We are reading in Matthew 16:26, “What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?”
