Saying See you Later.

I never did like Good bye's because it sounded as though it was forever and so I try to always say See You Later becasue it implies for me that very truth that I will see you later. Well My Grandma went home this week, What a wonderful place that is, the very place that Jesus has gone to prepare for all of us who believe on Him as Lord and Saviour. She was a wonderful women someone I will trully miss. She loved to help others and always went out of her way to make you feel welcomed. She was my connection to home, there was nothing she didn't tell me I knew and was up to date with everything that was going on back with My family in Cali. Where jessica and joyce moved, what my little brother and his family were up too, where my older brother and his family went on vacation, what new project my dad started to do on the house, how much my mom was working. She even kept me uptodate on people I haven't seen since childhood she would write me 6 page letters filled with family issues I loved it and was up to speed on everything. Her writting was not the easiest to read but that was part of the excitment Levi, Luca and Anja loved to hear what she had to write there were more than once I had to fight back tears from being home sick just because she would not leave out one detail and I could picture it all just as if I was sitting there living it with her. I could tell when she would get tired because her writting would get bigger the spaces would grow and she would write "Ok my boy my hand is hurting got to rest I love you my boy!" Those words were the last words I heard my Grandma say to me just a week ago I called her told her that Levi and Luca, Anja and I were praying for her and that we loved her she was able to say to me " I Love You too my Boy"
What wonderful last words to hear from a Women I will always hold dear in my heart, She wrote me a poem a couple of years ago for my birthday and as I read it out loud to my friends I had to cry from just missing her hug and kiss and smile. she wrote:
" I wrote your name in the sky the wind came and blew it away, I wrote your name in the sand where I stand the waves came and washed it away, then I thought and wrote your name in my heart where I know it will stay." Babchi that is exactly what I have done your name will be forever in my heart where I know it will stay. The Bible tells me in Psalm 116:15 "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints" That was my Babchi a saint I know that because my Babchi confessed with her mouth that Jesus Christ was Lord and she believed in her heart that God raised him from the dead she was saved. She is now like I said earlier worshiping at His feet, No more tears, no more pain, no more sin. Babchi I will see you later, For any of you who knew my Babchi and do not yet know our Jesus personally, There is no other way to heaven but throught Jesus Christ and if you want the hope that she had and that I have and that many in my family have to spend eternity with Jesus and go where she is then make things right with Jesus today.
My Babchi is now living the life she was created to live Forever in the Presance of Jesus and I am going there you can too. Say Yes to jesus and experiance the forgiveness of sin.
Babchi I'm coming home can't wait to see you again. Until that day forever you will be in my heart where you will stay.
I love you!

No More!

NO MORE!

Have you found yourself saying,
NO MORE!
But still you go on.
Have you found yourself with the wrong crowd saying,
NO MORE!
But still you go on.
Have you found yourself falling saying,
NO MORE!
Yet still you go on.
Have you found yourself crying, empty, abused, forgotten and tired saying,
NO MORE!
And yet you go on.
Have you found yourself searching for acceptance from family, friends, foe saying,
NO MORE!
But still you go on.
Have you heard the Master calling saying,
KNOW MORE!
This is the way to the NO MORE!
"...behold now is the day of salvation" (2 Corinthians 6:2)
"Come out from among them. And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you. I will be a Father to you And you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty." (2 Corinthians 6:17-18)
NO MORE! you say, then KNOW MORE!
and go on, for He is the Way, the Truth, the Life.

How are You being Salt and Light to a Dark Tastless World









A billboard asking "Would you rather watch porn with your Mum or your sister?", has sparked calls for stricter controls on outdoor advertising.

The billboard in Hamilton's CBD advertises a pre-mixed drink made by DB Breweries.

In response, advocacy group Voice Waikato has put up a sign saying "This is offensive - porn hurts women and children."

Has alcohol advertising become too offensive and tasteless? The answer is the world has become too offensive and tasteless.

I read this artical in a newspaper recently and interesting enough I was reading in Matthew Chapter 5:13-16 " You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. You are the ligth of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it udner a basket, but on a lampstand and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Jesus here is not asking if you want to be or that you will be He is stating a fact and that is that you are the salt and that you are the light, What is it that is keeping you from being Salt to this tasteless world, What is it that is keeping you from shining your Light in this Dark world. Ask GOD to reveal it to you, And let me encourage you that when He reveals it to you that you throw it at his feet, Leave it there and go out into a Tasteless Dark world and Brighten it up bring a tastefull message out to them That Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. This world needs Jesus and those of you who believe in Him as your Saviour you have the cure for their tastelesness and darkness. Give them Jesus

Hello!

Well it has been awhile since I have written here, since it seems that the wave of keeping in touch has shifted once agian and everyone is on Facebook. If you are not on thier yet it is a great way to keep in touch with all of your family and friends and Missionaries :)

Anyway The Four Harts are doing well, we have been going, going, and going but that is life isn't it. I was though confronted once agian with the knowledge that I am dependent upon my computer, this last week in preperation for Sunday's service my laptop screen goes black and I started to freak out, Oh no what am I going to do the whole teaching is on their How will I ever finish.




What have I forgotten to sit down pick up a pen and write it out!
It seems as though I have, I can not remeber the last time I sat down and wrote a letter by hand everything now is E-mail or an SMS from a cell phone crazy, what would we all do if we had to write letters agian. I tell you one thing I believe we would all have a lot less stress. Life would slow down and I tell you something that would be nice. With E-mail if you don't respond within seconds of recieving it you have some angry people. But I must say I am happy though that I have the internet and the chance to write such nonsens, Just think the amount of people reading this Iwould be writting for days and then I would have to buy stamps and then send it by


Well all I hope to stay in better contact with you all. Here is a little update on THE FOUR HARTS


I have taken on many new responsabillities in the church. under my care are the areas Worship,Missions,Outreach,Prayer,Connect and then Kommunications.
Now this does not mean that I am leading all of these areas but I am make sure that the leaders themselves have everything they need to do thier minsitry when there are problems I help so this includes a lot of work but it is good. On top of this I am helping out with teaching and this is very fun and I am learning a lot. My prayer is that I would be a Shepherd like God says He will send Israel in Jeremiah 3:15
Anja has started to work again as a Dental Assistant she works two days in a week Monday's and Thursday she loves it.
Levi an Luca are doing good and are full of life, school for them has it's up's and downs but they are doing good, Levi got his report card and it was good, We had to laugh He got an A in English and a C in Germans that is my boy:) German is not easy I know.
Well this is getting long and I need to go so until next time, try writting a letter and send it to someone you know it will make their day it is fun getting mail in your real mailbox not just e-mail
Love you all

" Oh give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting."
1 Chronicles 16:34

How much we have to be thankful for, just look around even though we might be as a nation suffering financially as people we have we still have more than we need. Are you today thankful for the freedom that you have, are you thankful for the clean water you drink, the food in your stomach. Are you thankful for the roof over your head, for the clothes on your back.

Most importantly are you thankful for the Lord, Are you thankful for the blood he shed that you might be set free from the sin that so easily ensnares you. Are you thankful for His grace and His mercy that are new every morning. Are you thankful for the knowledge that Soon and very Soon He will return.

I want to thank you for giving me such wonderful friends who have remained through the years. I want to thank you for such great support from my family and from my wife's family You are so Good! Lord I want to thank you for such great churches behind us who are praying for us and for the work they are doing Thank you for Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, thank you for Calvary Chapel South Bay Lord Thank you for the Church you have brought us too here in Stuttgart for City Chapel Lord I want to thank you for Calvary Chapel Heidelberg and for the many other Calvary Chapels in Germany and world wide who faithfully are teaching your word. I thank you for the hope you have given us in your Son Jesus Christ.
