A PLACE TO HIDE
‘Where can I go from your Spirit?” and “Where can I flee from your presence?” are two questions asked by David in Psalm 139. (We read about David in the Bible.)
Four possibilities are coming to his mind:
1. THE HEAVENS
The LORD is in the heavens.
2. THE DEPTHS
The LORD is in the depths.
3. THE FAR SIDE OF THE SEA
The LORD is on the far side of the sea.
4.THE DARKNESS WILL HIDE ME
Darkness is like light to the LORD.
In another Psalm, Psalm 32:7, he gives himself the most beautiful answer.
Here it is:
“You are my hiding place;
you will protect me from trouble and
surround me with songs of delivery.”

BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD

“Smile, Laugh, and live the Abundant Life,” is a booklet compiled by Ernie Klassen, my Bible school teacher from many years ago (we called him Uncle Ernie), and edited by his daughter Heather Ewald. In the thin book I find the following and that is also my own experience:
“I was chosen before the foundation of the world. (Ephesians 1:4) He was so sure that His choice was right that He sealed me. (Ephesians 1:13) He wrote my name in his book. (Luke 10:20) and He does not have an eraser on his pencil.”
And then there is this question, “Should we not tell others about our great fortune?”
I went to Thailand from Germany to tell others about my great fortune.
And also today here in Kaitaia, where I now live, I told someone in a lengthy conversation that I believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
