CHRISTIAN NOVELS

I received two Christian Novels (GIVEAWAY) written by J. L. Rubart: ROOMS and BOOK OF DAYS.

Finished reading ROOMS not long ago.

IF YOU HAVE READ ROOMS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT THE BOOK!!

Books! Books!

“I love reading books! They can take you to places you can only dream about………. imagine that!” is written on the McDonald’s paper cup I am looking at.

I also belong to those who love reading books!

“It is books that are a key to the wide world; if you can’t do anything else, read all that you can.” – Jane Hamilton, The book of Ruth

Read the “GOOD BOOK”! Read “THE BOOK OF BOOKS”! Read the BIBLE!

READ THE WORD OF GOD AND OBEY IT.

1. First John 2:5

“But if anyone  obeys his word, God’s love is truly made complete in him.”

2. First John 3:24

“Those who obey his commands live in him,…”

3. First John 5:3

“This is love for God: to obey his commands.”

4.  Second John 6

“And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands.”

In the book called GOOD IN EVERYTHING by H. L. Gee I found what GENERAL MONTGOMERY  said to some of his officers in North Africa:

“I read my BIBLE every day, gentlemen, and I recommend you to do the same.”

HEALTH

Health isn’t everything, but without it everything is nothing,” says Dr. Hans Diehl.

What does the BIBLE, the word of the living God say?

Proverbs

1.  “….; fear the LORD and shun evil.

This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.” – Proverbs 3:7,8

2.  “My son,…………; listen closely to my words.

Do not let them out of your sight,

keep them within your heart; for they are…………..

and health to  a man’s body.” – Proverbs 4:20-22

3.  “……good news

gives health to the bones.” – Proverbs 15:30

What is good news?

The gospel is the good news! The good news concerning what?

The good news concerning Christ.

The good news concerning the kingdom of God.

The good news concerning salvation.

“NO NETWORK COVERAGE”

Yesterday in the morning I was not able to contact my friends on my mobile phone.

I will tell you why. “No networks coverage” came up on the phone.

I am here in Kaitaia, in the beautiful north of New Zealand. I have been here now for a number of years, and that was the first time that that happened. There is usually no problem.

But I was still able to call my best friend, the Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord Jesus Christ says in John 15:14:

You are my friends if you do what I command.”

And I want to do what the Lord commands.

One of his commands is

 “‘Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. Whoever believes and  is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.'” – Mark 16:15,16

Not long ago I met two young men (tourists) from Rostock in Germany. The opportunity arose to talk to one of them for some time about my relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. He listened attentively and was eager to write down my website. 

“…..’friends and family are good medicine’…”

“……’friends and family are good medicine’…..”

“It is said that ‘friends and family are good medicine’ and having meaningful CONTACTS with others is of real value.”

I am reading that in a MENTAL HEALTH FOUNDATION OF NEW ZEALAND pamphlet. (“Making mental health everybody’s business.”)

The brochure is called:  “Late Life Depression.”

NOTHING CAN BE COMPARED WITH OUR CONTACT WITH THE LIVING GOD!
