Earthquake

Not long ago I was thinking how good it is that the north of New Zealand, where I live, is not known to have a history of earthquakes.

So it was a real surprise to read in the book “In Praise of Our Post Office” by Fiona Craig about the earthquake of 1963 in Whangaroa, not far from Kaitaia, where I live now.

I am living in New Zealand since the end of 1979!

Being happy and Well-being

"HAPPINESS IS AN INSIDE JOB"

“HAPPINESS IS AN INSIDE JOB”

When I read today about being happy and well-being in the book called “God’s way of Reconciliation” (Studies in Ephesians 2) by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, I did not only remember all the things I have read about the subject happiness and the subject Wellbeing, but also all the things I have written already about the two subjects.

Please write happy or happiness and well-being or wellbeing into the Search box and read the posts already on this blog!

D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones says that we are dependent upon God and that our well-being depends on our realisation of that. Only God is self-existent, we are dependent beings and we are only happy when we are in correspondence with God and when we are obedient to God.

I have actually experienced that!
