We must look to the right person.
“‘If the community is looking to the courts to stop this [the scourge of violence against children] it is looking in the wrong place,'” said a Senior Sergeant. (The Northland Age, Thursday, June 30, 2016)
Rallies were held outside courthouses on Monday to end the scourge of violence against children.
The Bible says that we as a community must “fix our eye on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, …”
We read that in Hebrews 12:2 in the New Testament.

HEART
“When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, the HEARTS of the people are filled with schemes to do wrong.” – Ecclesiastes 8:11
“To each one there comes, in his or her lifetime, a special moment when they are tapped on the shoulder and offered a chance to do a very special thing, unique to them and fitted to their talent. What a tragedy if that moment finds them unprepared or unqualified for that which could have been their finest hour”. – Winston Churchill
“In the end …”
“Let’s relax and let God do his job.” – Joyce Meyer
“Libraries change lives!”
“Writing Competition”

A library is “a room or building where books and other literary materials are kept.”
KAITAIA PUBLIC LIBRARY
According to that definition of the Collins English Dictionary “my room” is small library and our living room is also a small library. Although we don’t have all that many books in our house, we have one book that really changed my whole life. And that book is the BIBLE!
I still remember when the Bible was like any other book on the book shelf. But the time came, when the Holy Spirit, the author of the Scriptures, made the Bible alive for me.
From that time on I went to a Bible school, applied to a Missionary Society, went to Thailand and worked there as a missionary. In 1980 I did more studies at the Bible College of New Zealand, as it was called at that time.
At the beginning of 1981 I joined the United Maori Mission (UMM) and worked in Kaikohe as a missionary for almost 25 years until my retirement.
\Whenever I enter a public library I am wondering if I find THE BOOK OF BOOKS, the Bible, among the many books.
