Psalm 115:4-8

Intr.:

made by the hands of men.

a.  They have mouths, but cannot speak,

b.  eyes, but they cannot see;

“Eyes, but cannot see”

c.  they have ears, but cannot hear,

d.  noses, but they cannot smell;

e.  they have hands, but cannot feel,

“hands, but cannot feel”

f.  feet, but they cannot walk;

End:

Those who make them will be like them, …”

“Whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life.” – Revelation 22:17

To win a copy of Quiet Power, tell us what you like to do in your quiet moments.

Some time before reading the above Isaiah 30:15 came to my mind in a special way and that it fits actually every situation. In Isaiah 30:15 it says:

“…,in quietness … is your strength, …”

I am still learning that I need more “quiet moments”, especially when I am with people.

In my quiet moments I am doing nothing, I am just quiet.

Here somewhere in the north of New Zealand is a big sign on the roadside with a MESSAGE I really like.

On our last trip from Kerikeri to Kaitaia I decided to take a picture of the sign. The sign is on the road between Kaeo and the turnoff to Whangaroa on the right side of the road. Looking for it and not finding it was a great disappointment.

KAEO: The sign was a bit north from Kaeo and I hope it will be replaced

Friends, who live in that area confirmed that the sign is gone. They would have taken a picture for me.

For everybody it is now too late to take a picture of that particular sign.

The MESSAGE on the sign read:

“CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS”. (From memory.)

But it is still not too late to believe what is written on the sign.
