More Books!
Yesterday I bought one more book – directly from the author. She had a copy in her car.
“KEEPING IT SIMPLE” by Ivy Tan

I LIKE BOOK FAIRS
The book was bought at the final Kaitaia Rotary Club book fair of the year together with two others.
On the back cover of the slender volume Dr. J. B. Phillips writes that he hopes that the book will be read by thousands intelligent people.

But the book looks to me as if it has not been read by many people at all.
The name of a previous owner is written in the book and crossed out. There is also evidence that the book at one stage belonged to a church library. I find the rubber stamp of the church twice in the book and there is also a pocket attached inside the book. In the pocket is the card on which I should find the names of all the people who have borrowed the book from the library, but there are none, not even one. Eventually the book has been donated to the Kaitaia Rotary Club book fair to be sold.
The book is called:
“HEREAFTER.
A new look at an old question
What happens after death?”
The author of the book is David Winter.
Why is the book not read by thousands of intelligent people?
The answer is actually in the book.
It says there right at the beginning that people refuse to think about death.
The final Kaitaia Rotary Club book fair of the year was advertised in our local paper and it said there that the donated books “will sell for a song,” and they did. Only a dollar was paid for the book “Hereafter” by David Winter and the other two good books.
Some of my best books I have bought second-hand “for a song”. Have you heard me say that before?

Intr.:
“Praise the LORD.
1. Praise God in his sanctuary;
2. praise him in his mighty heavens.
3. Praise him for his acts of power;
4. praise him for his surpassing greatness.
5. Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,
6. praise him with the harp and lyre,
7. praise him with tambourines and dancing,
8. praise him with the strings and flute,
9. praise him with the clash of cymbals,
10. praise him with resounding cymbals.
End:
Let everything that has breath praise the LORD.”

More and more I see that many of us who are Christians are quite unconsciously guilty of terrible sin in complaining of our inability to understand the ways of the Lord.” – D. Martyn Lloyd – Jones
