There is PHYSICAL food and there is SPIRITUAL food.

I cannot help thinking about  my time in THAILAND as a missionary, when I see all the Asian food shops here in Kaitaia and all over the country, especially the Thai food shops.

Just as the Asian food shops bring their  special PHYSICAL food to this country, missionaries bring SPIRITUAL food to the Asian countries, THAILAND for example.

Yes, food for our bodies is very important, but food for our spirits is more important, because we don’t “live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD. (Deuteronomy 8:3)

“BUT JUST AS YOU EXCEL

2 Corinthians 8:7

Intr.:

IN EVERYTHING –

• IN FAITH,
• IN SPEECH,
• IN KNOWLEDGE,
• IN COMPLETE EARNESTNESS, AND
• IN YOUR LOVE FOR US –

End:

SEE THAT YOU ALSO EXCEL IN THIS GRACE OF GIVING.”

“The Road to Excellence”

“CHANCE IS BANISHED FROM THE FAITH OF CHRISTIANS, FOR THEY SEE THE HAND OF GOD IN EVERYTHING.” – C. H. Spurgeon

“The church of today is as she is because we ‘behold’ these thing so little, because we are so ignorant of them.” – D. M. Lloyd-Jones 

A beautiful flower.

“BUT WE ARE NOT OF THOSE WHO SHRINK BACK AND ARE DESTROYED, BUT OF THOSE WHO BELIEVE AND ARE SAVED.” – Hebrews 10:39

“READ ME!”

The title of the book is “The Bible”.

The author of the Bible is Holy Spirit.

I not only recommend the book, I urge you to read the Bible.

I not only liked the Scriptures, but I like the Scriptures because:

• OUR KNOWLEDGE OF GOD IS FOUND IN THE BIBLE
• DIVINE TRUTH COMES FROM THE BIBLE.
• THE BIBLE GUIDES US TO EVERLASTING LIFE.

“A. B. Simpson once heard a man say something that he never forgot. ‘WHEN GOD TESTS YOU, IT IS A GOOD TIME FOR YOU TO TEST HIM BY PUTTING HIS PROMISES TO THE PROOF, AND CLAIMING FROM HIM JUST AS MUCH AS YOUR TRIALS HAVE RENDERED NECESSARY.'” – Billy Graham

“GOD WILL NOT PERMIT ANY TROUBLES TO COME UPON US , UNLESS HE HAS A SPECIFIC PLAN BY WHICH GREAT BLESSING CAN COME OUT OF THE DIFFICULTY.” – Peter Marshall
