"Nothing can stop me, I’m all the way up!" Do you know that song? "I'm all the way! Nothing can stop me, I'm all the up!" -- That energy in those words with that beat is what I am feeling right now as I started this journey. God is on my side, guiding my every step, clearing … Continue reading All The Way Up
Recite, Repeat & Meditate
Don’t get tired of doing good, for you will reap at the proper time if you don’t give up. Trust me, you will. You see this verse I just shared, I have been reading it over and over for days so I can remember it. Remember it in times when I need it. When I … Continue reading Recite, Repeat & Meditate
Ways In The Wilderness
Guess what? I'm actively and willingly reading books! I never liked reading books. I was always slow, because I got easily distracted and it would take me much longer to read one page than it would take someone else. Also my reading comprehension wasn't the best. So, it never really intrigued me to pick up … Continue reading Ways In The Wilderness
Be Careful What You Use Your Words For
Yup. There is no walking or running around the bush to this one. Just be careful what you use your words for. Your words can either build or destroy. They build or destroy someone else, but also yourself. Either the words you speak to yourself or the ones you share about yourself, where the receiving … Continue reading Be Careful What You Use Your Words For

The Bold and Faithful Investment
9-2-2023As I read Acts 20 today where Paul has a farewell address to the Ephesian elders before he goes back to Jerusalem, he says this: “..the church of God, which He purchased with His own blood”. And it made me think, God, Jesus, purchased the church, us, with His own blood. He purchased us. He … Continue reading The Bold and Faithful Investment
The Empath Superpower
Soo, I started watching Manifest on Netflix and in the third season, oh wait: SPOILER ALERT! Ok, so in the third season.. Zeke becomes an empath. He possesses the psionic ability to sense the emotions of others. He feels what others feel. In this scene he felt how this older dementing lady felt in a moment … Continue reading The Empath Superpower
A Pursuit Of The Wind
27-6-2021Have you ever read Ecclesiastes 2 before? Where you find Solomon kind of monologuing and a bit arguing with himself. Where you find him being disappointed every time he finds out that practically everything he does here on earth, "under the sun" as he put it, is a pursuit of the wind. Bless him. Have … Continue reading A Pursuit Of The Wind
To Enjoy Enjoying
I wrote this piece 2,5 months after I arrived in Portugal. That's now three years ago. I'm getting back to these pieces and texts I'm finding that I wrote before. To still share them, yes, but also to enlighten me. It's funny to see that three years ago I had these same thoughts or actually … Continue reading To Enjoy Enjoying
