God give me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,

Courage to change the things I can,

And wisdom to know the difference.

Contact Energy Limited supplies us with electricity. Only the other day I noticed that Contact Energy has also a newsletter with the title ‘In Contact’.

A very interesting newsletter with lots of pictures and interesting articles. At Contact Energy they are also committed to building open and enduring relationships with customers. They want feedback and an email address is given.

I don’t need to elaborate on the importance of the supply of electricity-power- and the contact with “Contact Energy Ltd”. Contact Energy is a powerful source.

EVEN NOW I AM DEPENDENT ON CONTACT ENERGY!

But– especially here in the north of NZ, in Kaitaia, the power gets knocked out when there is heavy thunder and lightening.

That reminds us actually that there is a more powerful source than Contact Energy and that is the Living God, who created the Heaven and the Earth.

And how important it is to be connected to Him. Are you yet in contact with the Living God? You can be through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Our God is also committed to have an open and enduring relationship with us. His email is the Bible.

Do you have an enduring relationship with your Creator? And let me remind you again that you are a dependent being. You are dependent on GOD!

That is the motto of a school here in Kaitaia. I think that is a good motto. I saw it today.

The Bible says quite a lot about WISDOM, especially in Proverbs.

Above my computer desk is a calendar and the Bible Verse for tomorrow is Mark 9:45.

AND IF YOUR FOOT CAUSES YOU TO SIN, CUT IT OFF. IT IS BETTER FOR YOU TO ENTER LIFE CRIPPLED THAN TO HAVE TWO FEET AND BE THROWN INTO HELL.

I found out what is happening at the NERO cafe and bar on Friday night when I picked up a ‘FLIER’ from the ground at a street corner. The flier was lying on the grass together with other torn paper, empty beer bottles and empty beer cans and a dilapidated card board box. On the flier was written,” 2 for 1 drink specials, Free bar nibbles, Win a Little black Dress.”

But the headline “TGIF” got my full attention. “TGIF–thank god it’s friday.” Is that meant to be a prayer? Please let me know!

DO YOU AGREE WITH ME THAT WE NEED MORE GOSPEL FLIERS?

I mean GOSPEL fliers. Do you think the Gospel — Romans 1:16,17 — is preached in the Churches today?

Luke 16:8

John 14:6 The Lord Jesus Christ is the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE!

There is lots of LIFE in our years when we are walking with the Lord Jesus Christ. It is a life full of ‘Adventures.’ It led me from one end of the earth to the other!
