“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!

But there is in fact a place where you can stay, although you can’t pay!

There is a place without …

1.  hunger.

“CAN’T PAY CAN’T STAY”

2.  thirst.

3.  excessive heat.

4.  night or darkness.

5.  death.

6.  tears.

7.  sorrow.

8.  crying.

9.  pain.

There is a …

10.  holy place.

11.  high place.

12. happy place.

The place is called Heaven.

The door to Heaven is called Salvation. Salvation is a free gift, but the Lord DIED to save us. (Acts 20:28; First Corinthians 6:20; First Corinthians 7:23; Revelation 5:9)

You probably have heard the saying:

“SALVATION IS FREE, BUT NOT CHEAP.”

And the New Birth is the door to Salvation!

Revelation 7:16; 22:3-5; 21:4; 7:17; Psalm 20:6; Isaiah 57:15

At our Bank yesterday, where I had business, it shot through my mind to ask again, but I did not.

Why did I not ask?

Because I had given up Hope, and was it not already the 20th of January 2014?

But yesterday I walked out of the Bank with two of the ASB 2014 pocket calendars without asking again.

Inside the neat calendars I read:

“With compliments from ASB

ASB Bank Limited”

I am saying, “NEVER GIVE UP HOPE!”

“DIE BIBEL IM TEST”

Still reading the book EVIDENCE THAT DEMANDS A VERDICT by Josh McDowell. (I am half way through!) I am reading the German translation. Should actually get and English copy.

It is a book everybody should read.

On page 183 he is quoting John R. W. Stott: “Liebe ist im Kern Selbstopfer.” That is the best and shortest definition of LOVE I have ever read. “Love is in essence self sacrifice.” I hope I translated that correctly.

THE CROSS

“Then he blessed Joseph and said,

Genesis 48:15,16

Intr.:

A.

1.   ‘MAY THE GOD before whom my fathers

a.  Abraham and

b.  Isaac walked,

2.  the God who has been my shepherd all my life to this day,

3.  the Angel who has delivered me from all harm –

may he bless these boys.

B.

1.  MAY THEY be called by my name and

2.  the names of my fathers

a.  Abraham and

b.  Isaac, and

3.  may they increase greatly upon the earth.'”

End:

I like this flower
