Please welcome the other adopted daughter, Rebeca. Also known as "Rebeca with a C". At least that's how she is known to me, among many other titles I've heard people call her. She is beautiful inside and out, has lovely flowers growing out her head and shows a delightful example of how to love like … Continue reading [WID0040] Guest Post by Rebeca: Our Roots Don’t Define Us

[WID0036] Guest Post by Maartje: What Is Love?
This photo above fits well with what I think about love. It's beautiful, everyone admires it, but what we can see is just "blurry": there is so much more to discover. I thought carefully about how to write a blog about love. Love is something we all know! Loving a parent, a partner, a son … Continue reading [WID0036] Guest Post by Maartje: What Is Love?
[WID0034] Guest Post by Sophia: Say Steward, What Do You Think About Your Functioning?
I've been wanting to share something about the "creation" for a while now. Well, actually mainly about how we deal with creation. Our stewardship. Genesis 1:28-29 says that God blessed the people and that we are rulers over the earth, the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky and over all the beasts … Continue reading [WID0034] Guest Post by Sophia: Say Steward, What Do You Think About Your Functioning?

Metamorphosis Till Rebirth
I prayed: forgive my sin Father, for I lacked faith. Forgive me for lacking faith. Romans 14:23 [ESV] - "For whatever does not proceed from faith is sin." I lacked faith for relying on a steady income. Relying on an income in general. Always looking for a job instead of looking to You. Having faith … Continue reading Metamorphosis Till Rebirth
[WID0031] Guest Post by Maartje: The Best Is Yet To Come
It has been a year since I married my dear husband. To review our first year, we wrote letters to each other to put on paper what this first year has done to us: our gratitude, the beautiful first memories but also the difficult moments. “A calm sea never makes a skilled sailor” This expression … Continue reading [WID0031] Guest Post by Maartje: The Best Is Yet To Come
If You Don’t Pray, He Will
Yesterday my second chapter of the day was Luke 22, where the following verses stuck with me: Luke 22:31-32 [HCSB] - ““Simon, Simon, look out! Satan has asked to sift you like wheat. But I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And you, when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”” … Continue reading If You Don’t Pray, He Will
