Deuteronomy 33:25,27

…, and your strength will equal your days.

…, and underneath are the everlasting arms.

I am looking again at the beautiful bookmark from the New Zealand RED CROSS. At the present time you find the bookmark on page 46 in the book “The Prayer of Jabez” by Bruce Wilkinson. The four words at the bottom of the bookmark are speaking to me. The words are “Always needed, Always there.”

The RED CROSS people are always needed.

But there is ONE person, we need more than any other person. That person is also always needed. The author, Annie S. Hawks is writing about that person, “I need Thee, O I need Thee, ev’ry hour I need Thee! O bless me now, my Savior– I come to Thee!” That is the chorus of the beautiful hymn “I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR.” It has five verses. This ONE person is the Lord Jesus Christ. In Psalm 86:1 David is crying out in prayer to the Lord, “Hear, O Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy.”

On the bookmark it also says, that the RED CROSS people are always there. It is true, that they are always needed. And I surely hope, that they are always there.

The Lord Jesus Christ is surely always there. Here is His promise, “And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:20 Let us trust His word.

I like to look at the Bank Posters. The one I saw today said, “DEBT CONSOLIDATION LOAN.” “ORGANISE YOUR DEBTS AND SLEEP EASY.”– There was also a picture of a man in bed sleeping.

Organise your debts?– The BIBLE says, “Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for he who loves his fellowman has fulfilled the law.” Romans 13:8

Don’t have any DEBTS and sleep really easy!

Psalm 32:8 (NIV)

1. I will instruct you in the way you should go;

2. I will teach you in the way you should go;

3. I will counsel you

4. I will watch over you.

The book was printed in 1974 and I have heard about it ; but I am only reading it just now. Found it in a second-hand shop.

I have read many books— but this is one of the best, especially chapter 18 “Stillness in the Manhouse.”

Have not quite finished reading the book, but almost!

Second Corinthians 6:2 part two – NOW!

I TELL YOU,

— NOW IS THE TIME OF GOD’S FAVOR,

— NOW IS THE THE DAY OF SALVATION.

IS THAT NOT DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSED TO WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES?

WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT TALKING?
