Fritzlar
As we entered a restaurant this was up on a sign: ‘ It’s nice to be important, but it is more important to be nice.’ It was very hot and all the tables and chairs were taken up outside. I went in to ask :’ We have our dog with us, may we sit inside?’Continue reading “Fritzlar”
Keeping cool
The mind is built up by what it reads, sees, hears. God reminds us through Hosea and Jeremiah: ‘I have written to you the great things of my law’ Hosea 8:12 ‘Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things that you do not know about.’ Jeremiah 33:3 GodContinue reading “Keeping cool”
Geisenheim/Lime tree town
Jesus is explaining something because He wants the people to know what His relationship to God is. He says it like this: ‘You who see me see God. I am a light, whoever believes in me will not live in darkness. If you don’t believe me I don’t judge you because I came to saveContinue reading “Geisenheim/Lime tree town”
Rüdesheim am Rhein
Here are a few words spoken by Paul that say a lot. I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:14 A much longer way of saying this: I focus on Jesus for strength, forgiveness, guidance, moving forward with determination. This means effort, resilience andContinue reading “Rüdesheim am Rhein”
Streets and plants from our time so far in Germany
We see and file File and see With many others we look and wonder how much is all the same? Streets and buildings, plants with flowers How much is different and how much the same?

David speaking: ‘The LORD is close to those who are very sad, and saves those who have a feeling of deep regret or remorse for doing wrong. Good people often have things go wrong but the LORD takes care of them through it all.’ Sandy’s way of saying Psalm 34: 18,19. Those wild flowers inContinue reading “Andernach”
Simply wildflowers
We are still travelling but this evening before the sun’s last rays left the Rhine we were enchanted by wild flowers planted in large areas. My post tomorrow will look at another well loved natural phenomenon in this area. After each photograph is a quote about wild flowers. Man has created some lovely dwellings, someContinue reading “Simply wildflowers”
Münster University Botanicle garden.
Just a thought I agree with: ‘ We are precious because of the value of the sacrifice made by Jesus. So don’t put a low estimate on yourself.’ What is said about this garden: ‘ Botanical Garden of University of Münster is a 4.6 hectare oasis of tranquility directly behind Münster Castle. Founded in 1803,Continue reading “Münster University Botanicle garden.”
An accident, a thunder storm and Sabbath
We were at a T-junction and slowly moving forward to the middle of a narrow two-laned road. There was suddenly a cruch of metal and a thud on my side as Bugzy’s front left side gouged out the tire of the first wheel of a truck cab. The 8 wheeled trailer then slowly moved pastContinue reading “An accident, a thunder storm and Sabbath”
Lüdinghausen and Die Burg Vischering…
…a town and a castle in Münsterland, Germany. But first a thought: ‘God forgives us because He is just.’ Paul speaking to the Corinthians: If any person is in Christ, they are a new creature: old things are gone, look all things become new. For God made Jesus who knew no sin, sin for us;Continue reading “Lüdinghausen and Die Burg Vischering…”
