“Jesus answered,’I am the way…..’”
“WHY?
Is it that we aren’t more interested in finding the best way rather than in having our own way?”

“…..another magical day…”
Posted by werner in My Pulpit is the World, Personal Evangelism on March 8, 2010
It was not the first time that I saw the ice cream truck parked there near the petrol station and that I read what was written on the front of the truck. This time I was able to write it down on my mobile phone and send the text to twitter. “Delivering another magical day to New Zealand” was written on the Tip Top ice cream truck.
I was sitting down on the nearby bench while writing down the sentence about the ‘magical day’. – And I was not aware that the Lord was in fact preparing another ‘magical day’ for me.
I was not the only one sitting on the bench. There was already someone else occupying the seat.
As ‘it happened’ we got talking and I came across another person who really has a living relationship with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Did we talk for more than half an hour? I do not know. But I know that I prayed at the end of our gathering and the Lord Jesus Christ was with us according to his promise. Matthew 18:20

The little Bookmarker and the big Drum
Posted by Werner Dekarski in Diary on March 6, 2010
Quick two true stories about letting go………from my own experience.
I picked up the bookmark from the dirty ground. It was almost under my feet. It looked almost like new and I started to read. The whole of Psalm 23 was written on one side. Psalm 23:1-6. Twice on the same walk I tried to give the bookmark away. The first time it did not work. I was told that it was for me to keep……… ! The second time it was eagerly received by a man who really needed that message of Psalm 23 at that time.
Later at home I picked up a book I was reading and I found a different bookmark in the book.
I must have used a prayer-letter as bookmark and somebody wanted to read it! The prayer letter was removed and replaced with a proper bookmark on which was written…… the whole of Psalm 23. Psalm 23:1-6
I am using now the Psalm 23 bookmark!
*****************
When we arrived from Thailand in New Zealand back in 1979 we came by plane of course , but some of our belongings came by boat. I had to pick up the drum at the harbour in Auckland.
There was a very good radio in the drum, but very old and FM did not work properly any more. I was asked to pay tax for the radio – but I refused. If I remember correctly it was $40.00.
We were standing there near the water and I said something like this to the man in charge and laughing, “You can take the radio home as a present from me or throw it in the water here – but I don’t pay one cent of tax for the receiver.” When I said that the Nordmende receiver did not end up in the water………..but was handed over to me!
The message is: LET GO!
