Beitrag fuer den Ehemaligenrundbrief und Gebetsanliegen fuer die Gebetsgruppe: Redaktionsschluss Forum:  1. Juli 2015

Ich wohne schon mehr als zehn Jahre hier im Norden von Neuseeland, bin auch im Un-Ruhestand – habe als Missionar in Thailand gearbeitet und hier in Neuseeland (United Maori Mission) – und komme immer wieder mit deutschen Touristen hier in Kaitaia zusammen. Sie besuchen Cape Reinga ganz im Norden von Neuseeland.

Es ist mir immer ein Anliegen, ihnen zu sagen, was der Herr Jesus Christus fuer mich getan hat. (Persoenliche Evangelisation) Kann ich Sie ermutigen, fuer die Deutschen, die hier durchkommen, zu beten?

Ganz herzlichen Dank dafuer!

Ihr Werner Dekarski

Vier Worte

Im FORUM fuer Braker Ehemalige (JUNI / JULI 2015) schreibt der einstmalige Schulleiter Doyle Klassen der Bibelschule Brake ueber das Buch BILLY GRAHAM & ME  by Steve Posner and Amy Newmark:

“Im Vorwort fasst A. Larry Ross, PR Experte das Leben des Weltevangelisten mit  vier Worten zusammen;

DEMUT, INTEGRITAET, AUTHENTIZITAET, und LIEBE. (S.7).”

Listening to the NEWS

Listening to the news ...

Listening to the news …

Listening to the news one wonders what we are coming to.

But this morning I picked up my BIBLE and read

Second Timothy 3:1-5:

THE CROSS

THE CROSS

“There will be terrible times in the last days.

Intr.:

People will be

1.  lovers of themselves,

2.  lovers of money,

3.  boastful,

4.  proud,

5.  abusive,

6.  disobedient to their parents,

7.  ungrateful,

8.  unholy,

9.  without love,

10.  unforgiving,

11.  slanderous,

12.  without self-control,

13.  brutal,

14.  not lovers of the good,

15.  treacherous,

16.  rash,

17.  conceited,

18.  lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God – having a form of godliness but denying its power.

End:

Have nothing to do with them.”

Now I am wondering why it is not worse!

“DREAMING”

“Want to live the Kiwi dream?” asks the advertisement I saw just now in the newspaper.

TAURANGA BAY: My dreaming place

You don’t need to look long in newspapers or magazines to come across the subject “dreaming”.

And I can only say that all that “dreaming” does not make much sense to me. You think that is my fault?

But I think today I read something that helps me to make a bit more sense.

But in spite of all that there are a good number of  dream posts on this blog. Please type “dreaming” into the search box and read them. Here are some of the posts:

1. “Ecclesiastes on Dreaming”.

2. “Are you also dreaming it?”

3. “Are you a dreamer?”

4. “Vision and action …”

And this is what I read today in the AUSTRALIA lonely planet guide about “Dreaming”: “Complex concept that forms the basis of Aboriginal spirituality, incorporating the creation of the world and the spiritual energies operating around us.” The Collins Concise Dictionary: “any remote period, out of touch with the realities of the present.” (Another name for “dream time” is alcheringa.)

“For  da tymz u need some1 2 tlk 2 bout wats hapnin in ur life,” tells me the publication called “Look Closer”. (Strengthening Families / Far North Safer Community Council).

In these times we surely need someone to talk to about what’s happening in our life.

It is “a guide to places for young people in Kaitaia”. On one page I find twenty places where young people can go to with their problems.

For example if you need some relationship advice you can go to or talk to RELATIONSHIP  SERVICES. (The phone number is given of course).

If you are having issues with your friends for example you can go to your local School Counsellor.

I need someone to talk to about what’s happening in my life. I talk to my heavenly Father. I can do that everywhere and always. I have learned that “‘Prayer is talking with Jesus.’ – answer given by Westminster student in Sunday School.'” “‘Prayer is the soul of man talking to God.'” (One hundred Bible Lessons by Alban Douglas.)
