Journey to the Ends of the World

This is how an adventure starts.... After our Machu Picchu adventure we got on a bus to the Bolivian border from Cusco on a Monday evening at 22:30. We reached the Bolivian border the next morning with anticipation and hopes of seeing the jungle again but...God had other plans. About an hour later we found ourselves on the pavement back in Peru as we couldn't get into Bolivia. In a rush of praying and thinking and trusting we unloaded our bags from the bus and waved it goodbye as it entered Bolivia without us. So there we were...apparently Peru wanted...

Personal newsletter Colombia I am standing on my Daddy's feet. Holding Him around His waist. Having a childish laughter when I look at Him. I am glued to Him, nothing can get me off Him. I do not want to let go. I am feeling safe and protected in His presence. I do not care where He is taking me or what is happening around me. No, it does not matter. All that matters is being with my Daddy wherever I go. There is nothing to worry about and nothing to figure out. That is my Daddy's job. Yes, He...

mylll   Temptation    Daddy. They are watching me. Eyes everywhere! They are researching my past and looking up my failures. Building a weapon to destroy me. Like a snake just waiting to strike... Father I am surrounded by my enemies. Tempted I am, the snare of the Devil I feel. I'm getting weak, my armour is damaged. I am falling... Daddy HELP! Rap yourself around me, protect me. Fight for me. Hide me in your Light! Please, do not leave me. Do not forsake me Daddy... The roots of temptation have been revealed. I have prayed over it. I...

Suriname and Guyana... Personal journey. Suriname Culture... It was difficult to accept the culture. There was a lot of dancing, shouting, loud music, screaming and emotional expressions. I struggled not to judge somethings I did not understand. It was just different. God challenged me to love those that differ from me. To love them even if we disagree sometimes. I found myself submitting my judgemental thoughts under God more and more. Authority... It was a battle, that is all I can say... Submitting your thoughts and ideas under Authority is a humble act, that is for sure. I disagreed with...

Faith ??? ( Part 1 ) What is faith? What do they mean when they say : " Take a leap of faith "? Why does it state in Hebrews 11 : " Without faith it is impossible to please Him"? It took me a year to fully grasp what the meaning of faith is. I will share a bit of this journey in Part 2. What I will share with you today is not unknown knowledge. It is more like forgotten knowledge. The world we are growing up in sort of despises it; laughs it off in a way....

---Panama, my personal newsletter--- ###A Prayer to God ### Thank you Daddy. Just thank You! I want to say it over and over. With my hands lifted up high and with tears in my eyes, I want to  declare Your greatness. You are almighty and powerful. You are my Daddy. I am proud to be Your son. God, You know the struggles and temptations we have gone through. There were so many fights God, so many restless night. But with a heart of freedom and peace, I can say I am finally at rest. Tears of JOY are forming a...

m JAMAICA Spiritually it felt like I was trapped in a jail cell with people who gave up on life. Their dreams were forgotten and their futures were left unwritten. Hopeless! Blinded by their past and poverty, they were just waiting...not for something or someone; they were just waiting.  What amazed me the most was the fact that all of them knew the good news of Jesus. Hopelessness was drowning them... killing them one by one.  I found myself limited by my knowledge and wisdom and soon afterwards became hopeless myself. The atmosphere was so heavy it started to choke...

Argentina Testimony ( Faith ? ) We were sent out across Argentina with no food, no money and no plans. The idea was for us to step out in faith for a week and meet up in Paraguay ( 1100km away ). With this in the back of our minds, we went out wondering what kind of adventure God had in store for us.  # Day 1 # For the first few hours it went really smooth. We got lifts left and right. Then we reached a village where we got stuck. The village was about 880km away from our...

Kenya I really do  not know how I can explain what has happened these past few weeks. To put this into words is quite a challenge for me. Part of our descriptions of traveling this year was to get outside of our comfort zones- so, challenge accepted! Here I go... In Kenya, I received a large slap in the face when I realized level of difficulty was actually a large . It was like a battlefield. An "inner battle" I would call it. I feel like I went through a mid-life crisis- twenty years too early in my life. I...

Peru ### AN IMPORTANT VALUE LEARNED #### %( PART 1 )% Finances is a personal topic. We are all ashamed to talk about it, especially if you are a Christian. @ How are we going to use our money? @ What should we buy and what not? @ How much should we give to the church ? @ Should we give our money to the poor ? @ Should we give our money to a NGO ? @ Should we take out a loan form the bank ? @ Should we spend our money on luxuries ? These are the...
