“Tell it like it is!”
Let me encourage you with two minor incidents. They happened yesterday.
I was on my way to our library here in Kaitaia, to make a copy of something I read in a magazine there recently.
LIBRARY – Te Ahu Community Centre
Walking on the footpath of Commerce Street, I saw a beautiful rainbow over our town. “What a picture,” came to my mind. But I did not have my camera on me to take it. You can send pictures to the editor of our local paper and sometimes they appear there under “This is our Place”.
Arriving at the library I looked for the magazine and, yes, I could not find it. Somebody had borrowed it.
I cannot take a picture of the rainbow I saw yesterday, but I can wait until the magazine is in the library again.
How do I know that you are encouraged? Because I just know! (You can identfy with happenings like this.)
My Last Move … Published Posts (4,998)
My last move is to a place without …
I moved from place to place in Germany, in Thailand and in New Zealand. I am talking here about places where I lived for quite some time.
But my last move is to a place
without death,
“We are moving soon”
without tears,
without sorrow,
without crying,
without pain,
without hunger
without thirst and
without night or darkness.
My last move is to a perfect place! Please come with me!
Nasty Weather Today …
Nasty weather today in Kaitaia / New Zealand.
Northland forecast for today:
“Showers, some heavy. Strong westerlies, gale gusting 100 km/h in exposed places.”
And the forecast is correct.
And it is cold!

“The key to knowledge.”
“‘Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.'” – Luke 11:52
DEATH: Do you know the Remedy?
“Nothing is certain except death and taxes”. – Benjamin Franklin
DEATH: The Remedy
There is not only physical death, there is also spiritual death. Both are the direct result of SIN.
The BIBLE says that “it is appointed unto men once to die”.
GRAVEYARD: PLEASE NOTICE THE CROSS IN THE SKY
Where do we find the true remedy? What is the cure for spiritual death? By believing on the Lord Jesus Christ spiritual death is cured. The Lord says in John 5:24:
“‘I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.”
Has the Holy Spirit worked the miracle of regeneration in your life? Has he transformed you into a child of God?
When I was eighteen years of age I had a second birthday, I began a new life, I passed from darkness to light. Now I belong to the family of God. I know that I am going to heaven when I am going to die. I can only say, “Praise the Lord!”
There is no doubt at all that death is certain, but I am not so sure about taxes.There are loopholes in the tax law. There are people who do not make enough money. That are two reasons why some people manage to avoid paying tax at all.
