Heritage Month

From Then to Now*

Changing Times for Te Awamutu’s 1920’s Commercial Architecture left. What do you reflect upon when you are faced with a choice to give or not?

The Bible teaches us that God searches our hearts and loves a cheerful giver. My motive at that red light was my desire to survive. Does that make me a loving father or a hypocrite?

Whangarei is changing almost as fast the traffic lights: superb holiday highways and homes, world class beaches without litter and gangs of 10-year-olds ‘looking after your car, Mister?’

Families living in their cars or under the rain covers of the Salvation Army building….

God has blessed me with a home at Te Kawa so that our family can grow together in a loving and patient way patient way.

Moving here has shown me that there is a great deal of love and compassion and neighbourliness in areas of this community. Do you think we are part of a green light traffic?

What I am saying is that there are many chances for us to share and give instead of take and divide: starting with indicating when we go round roundabouts and thanking drivers for letting us in to streams of traffic. God loves drivers who give away to others. By the way, when did you notice that there are no traffic lights in Te Awamutu?
