Who knew that this would happen? God has intensely shaped every heart and used this time to cast vision, detox, and challenge every heart's desire that's not in line with His will. God calls a pure and holy bride to rise up and walk in His provision. We have been blessed in so many ways by God who just provides. This week we were helping out at GLA. God provided roughly R24000 in 5 days to help build this school. Our benchmark is R30000 and we know God will provide the rest. When God casts a vision Hen I'll complete...

it is in serving the people that you discover something about the heart of God. We are currently spending time in the local community meeting people and playing with kids in the streets. The way we view community is limited to our environment. We compare what people have to what we have. It is like we deem our standard of living as the benchmark. Our take on the world is limited to our own suffering. We lack perspective. Their is a world in need and we are blind to what the world really needs...hope. We all need it. Jesus...
Hello everyone!! So this is officially the first blog post of the year- hopefully the first of many!! So I will be writing a little unconventionally- I feel like there is a lot of explaining going on about what we have been doing for the last 3 weeks. I don't really feel like explaining today, so instead I will give a few word description of what we did and and how I felt about it or what I learned. I hope you enjoy! Training started January 9th: After 2 days of traveling, I am...
At the end of 2014 I quit my job as a Physio, said goodbye to my comfortable life in Sea Point and decided to pack my backpack and join Global Challenge in travelling the world to make known to the nations what Jesus has done for us and to share His love. I believe God places a desire in your heart for the reason to bring Him glory and that He gives you talents, interests and passion for that same reason. What a privilege to be part of a group of 16 like minded young people forming the Hidden World...
Training started off with a bang, my heart beating like a drum, meeting new people knowing that they will be my family for the year. At first it did not seem possible but after running with a chicken, pulled out of our comfort zones, bubbels burst, testimonies spoken and God revealing the state of my heart, I can honestly say that I feel like I am appart and accepted into a God loving family that not only care for me but also care about my heart... After 3 weeks of intense sessions with Carla ;) I am really looking forward...
Training is amazing! I never thought God would bless me this much, to have such an awesome group, team, and a breathtaking location as base. Looking forward to continue this learning process and to see what God has in store for me. Blessings
With great expectations we started this journey. It was a time of being uncertain of what awaits us but being certain that God has called us. and that is exactly the point...God has called us. He still is. And those who answer this ever present call are the people who will see His glory unfold in the hidden world. Training has been an adventure in itself. We are discovering so much about ourselves and of God. Our ways of thinking has been moulded, challenged, and affirmed. It has been both challenging and edifying. This is church. A group of believers...
It is so far a amazing journey. I just love training. We been put in the wilderness for 4days with nothing els but our cloths we had on . What a adventure to get out of your comfort zone . We all smelt like pigs but what a time. After wilderness week we had a training course where we went deep in the Word . After that we had a teaching about God's grace . What a wonderful teaching. And now we are journeying with school kids .
What a blessing to already feel so at home with all the global challengers of 2015! We've had some crazy adventures (and challenges) already! From being in the bush for a few days and just chilling with Jesus in His beautiful creation to amazing teachings and mind blowing grace! Today had the great priviledge of meeting some of the global leadership academy students and can't wait to get to know the girls better!! Watch this space for testimonies of just how amazing our Father is!!!
