AT THE BEACH

We cannot get away from “right relationships.”

I am finding that again in the magazine called PRESS, NZ Edition, No 1. 2016.

It says there that the best intentions to do the best job are not enough. We need also the right people and the right relationships to get the job done. Without the right relationships and people I am told “you won’t get there”. That relationships are huge is really emphasized.

For me relationships are also very important. One relationship is of uttermost importance and that is our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Why? Without the right relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ we won’t get to heaven.

THE EYE

“Certain things catch your eye. But pursue only those that capture your heart.”

Walking along Commerce Street in KAITAIA today, I saw that advice on a street sign in front of a shop.

In my teens the Lord Jesus Christ captured my heart and since then the things of the Lord captured my heart.

What are now the things of the Lord?

At the end of the Gospel of Matthew the Lord Jesus Christ says:

THE HEART

“‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them …'”  (Matthew 28:16-20)

Let us also read Acts 1:8:

“‘But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.'”

“The eye never has enough of seeing, or the ear its fill of hearing,” the Bible says in  Ecclesiastes 1:8.
