AGAINST ALL ODDS by Benny Tan

Yesterday I bought the Book AGAINST ALL ODDS by Benny Tan.

It did not take me many hours to read the 146 pages of the book.

Do I need to say more?

You can buy the book here in Kaitaia at the office of the ABUNDANT LIFE CENTRE & CHURCH, 11 North Rd for $ 20.

BICENTENARY 1814 – 2014

It is believed that two hundred years ago the first Christian Service was held in New Zealand (Aotearoa).

— Samuel Marsden shared the Good News with Maori.

— Chief Ruatara invited him to do so.  

— It happened on Christmas Day 1814.

— The Place: Oihi Bay in the Bay of Islands.

“Smile, you are on camera,” was written on the two signs I saw this morning. They were fastened to the gates of the property I visited to deliver a message. ( Was not able to deliver the message.)

And I am glad for the reminder “you are on camera”.

Many times I have read that it is known when I sit and when I rise. My going out and my lying down is also known.

SMILE

But not only that!

My thoughts are also known. They are not only known, but they are known from afar.

The fact is that all my ways are known.

But listen to this:

Also before a word is on my tongue it is known and known completely.

I am reading also just now that there is no hiding place for me anywhere.

In Psalm 139:16 I am reading also:

“All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”

I am not only “smiling” because I am on camera, but I am also rejoicing that I am on the Lord’s camera. Hallelujah!
