All the ends of the earth shall remember
and turn to the Lord,
and all the families of the nations
shall worship before you.
For kingship belongs to the Lord,
and he rules over the nations.[Psalm 22:27-28 ESV]5 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT)3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT)4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT)5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT)Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!

A song of ascents. Of David.My heart is not proud, Lord,
my eyes are not haughty;
I do not concern myself with great matters
or things too wonderful for me.
But I have calmed and quieted myself,
I am like a weaned child with its mother;
like a weaned child I am content.Israel, put your hope in the Lord
both now and forevermore.[Psalm 131:1-3 NIV]5 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)2.

TEL AVIV BEACH
Jaffa View
Boat Harbour Beach
Beautifully positioned between rocky headlands, this is an idyllic harbour of white sand and water every shade of blue.You might wonder if you’re in the right place when you encounter Boat Harbour - the hamlet straddling the Bass Highway isn’t on the water. Instead, take the turn-off to Boat Harbour Beach to find this seaside getaway.Laze on the sheltered beach, spot marine life in rock pools and head to Seekers Bar and Cafe in the surf club for fish and chips and chilled drinks that come with a panoramic view of Bass Strait.Explore neighbouring Rocky Cape National Park. This park surrounds another beach community, Sisters Beach, which is located along a former horse trail known as the Postman’s Track that once connected Burnie and Stanley.
Bicheno - Denison Beach
Walk the white sand of wild Denison Beach, only a five-minute drive or 15-minute walk from the bush and Retreats. It stretches for about 10 kilometres and is a beautiful beach with white sand and crystal-clear waters
Strahan - Ocean Beach at Macquarie Heads
Head 6km west of Strahan's town centre to find Ocean Beach, Tasmania's longest beach (40km), which is fiercely pounded by surf. It runs uninterrupted from Trial Harbour in the north to Macquarie Heads in the south and is an evocative place to watch the sun dip into the sea. The water is treacherous: don’t swim here.Around 14km north of Strahan are the spectacular Henty Dunes, a series of 30m-high sugar-fine sand dunes backing Ocean Beach. From the picnic area, you can wander around the tops of the dunes, or take the 1½-hour return walk through them and out to Ocean Beach; remember to carry drinking water.
Strahan - Hells Gate and Entrance
Macquarie Heads are the headlands that meet at Hell’s gates, the narrow, shallow entrance of Macquarie Harbour.
Scamander - Shelly Point
Scamander is a typical holiday resort town noted for its wide sandy beaches and its major attractions which include surfing, swimming and fishing. It is located between St Helens (18 km to the north) and St Marys (19 km to the south), and has a happy, holiday feel about it. Names like Blue Seas Holiday Units and Pelican Sands Units hint at the ambience of the town.
LocationScamander is located 233 km north east of Hobart and 142 km east of Launceston. It is located between St Helens (18 km to the north) and St Marys (19 km to the south).
^ TOP
Origin of NameThe area was first explored by Europeans when the surveyor John Helder Wedge passed down the coast in 1825. He named the future township Yarmouth (after the English port) and the river Borthwick. It is believed that the name was changed to Scamander by the Tasmanian Governor, Sir John Franklin, who had a love of classical Greek culture. Scamander was the name of a river god in Greek mythology.

Sun, Sand and Surf
I took a trip to Whitsands Bay on Monday, strangely this was my first time here even though I live rather close. I have a fear not heights so driving or walking along the high clifftops always have made me feel uncomfortable. But this time I power through and got down to the beach.Rather simple shot of just the waves, sand and sky but it one I have been wanting to take for ages.

a quiet rebellion before the storm
follow me on instagram: instagram.co/arnds.photosportixol stood still, caught in the tension between the storm and the golden hour. the dark, brooding clouds weighed heavy above the bay, promising chaos, while the water beneath them whispered only calm. the pigeon on the shore, a casual witness to the drama, picked at the pebbles, indifferent to the grandeur unfolding behind it. palm trees framed the quiet scene, their silhouettes defiant against the coming night. here, between shadow and light, the ordinary met the extraordinary.

The beach (here in the south of Sri Lanka) is lined with so-called screw pines, better called pandanus (tectorius). They are neither palm trees nor pine trees. They have strong aerial roots and, similar to mangroves, serve to ward off flooding. However, they should not be confused with mangroves. These bear deciduous leaves.
