What we experienced was God´s amazing power in and through us. And it was real. Real. Everyday. Not because we are special. No. Because God IS! He is true. He is faithful. He can use you whenever where-ever! Are you open? Ready? This is my account. Team Purple Blog is still in the process...:) We started of, and the first thing God tested us in was: are we willing to GO NOW!? when it is getting dark, and we still have a secure place for the night? Will we trust him? Well...it rained as well, and after a prayer and...

Totally God!!! Our time was blessed in Guatemala. We met the most incredible people, and God used them to richly bless our lives, to speak into our lives and to help raise us up as true Sons of God. Amen! Praise be to God. This is number 2 for me, in Guatemala. Now until now, for the past couple of months, I have been praying for a mentor, specifically for this year. It is truely difficult, but I wanted and needed one. I know God is my Father, and He fathers me, and therefor I have everything I need. But,...
It is our time in Guatemala, Panajachel, and it has been amazing thus far!!! It is a time of working, sitting in teachings and learning a lot of Kingdom Principles…basics to say the least…and it is a time of growth for me…SPIRITUAL….and it is totally amazing!!! God has been so faithful, and He just keeps on blessing me daily.. The first blessing was when I had the opportunity to dive in the volcanic lake, and it is SO cool!! His work is just so much more than we can imagine…and it keeps on filling me with awe. God is a...
As I sit here and type, I am filled with emotions, wanting to go back, to see the amazing friends again, and definitely to be at Kamp Focus. That is the first place which was so quiet, that I am longing for that. We started our time there with a camp, and in the first week, while having communion, I had such an amazing experience. It was like seeing Jesus in front of me, showing me His hands, and for the first time I cried so much that every time I stopped, I started again. One thing I learned was...
India - a time where we can only look back upon and praise GOD!!! We started off in India with a bang. We worked from 5:30am till about 11am, and then we had some time for biblestudy. After that we worked out a program for the kids, and then we had a whole day of interaction with the kids. That was definitely my highlight!!! I loved everything that had to do with the kids. We prayed alot for money to bless them, and though we didn't even had enough money to stay there, we were blessed by God with about...
There is a song : THIS IS WHAT LOVE DOES....BY LIENKA. Amazing song. But this blog is about something else...this is what China does...People are always searching for something...They build high towers to the clouds...They worship foreign gods in temples, some are mere idols shaped by human hands....In the streets are hotels, restaurants, markets, and bike shops. And in the still late night, the hungry beggar creeps forward from the shadows...emerging half way into the light. Then he eats his daily meal, the wrotten fruit, waste which was "prepared" for him just an hour before...There is a huge need. Everywhere. Only...
God has such an awesome way of rewarding you...for just nothing...just because He can and want to! I had the privilege to play bass, again, for the first time since January, on stage with awesome sound, lights and the wildest 5 string Guitar!!! But it is not about the bass, it is about God that blesses you! We have a drama, and that is available to you on the site! Check it out! There we showed the people in 5minutes what God wanted from the beginning of time, till Jesus came for us again! It is the same drama as Lifehouse...
God is good!!! Praise HIS name!!! This week we had the most amazing time ever! We (the Yellow team) started to bond in a way that is only from God! He worked so awesome!!! I can not express it less!!!!! God worked with us this week in the Old Testament! So I read alot there, in Exodus, Leviticus etc. I was taught about the sacrifices, the specific ways in which God worked then, is the same way He works now!!! He is the SAME NOW, YESTERDAY< and FOREVER!!!!!!!! So it was awesome to learn new stuff, but why? Always why?...
I was confronted with this question a few days ago, and at that time I could not. So now I want to share this challenge with you, as well as give you a taste of what it can be and must be like...give answers to people so simple that kids can understand...you ready? Question from a small boy, after he was taught that Jesus lives in him and he lives in Jesus. Usually kids take it very literally when you give them answers, and this boy took it like that. He asked the teacher: if Jesus is in me,...
The past week we met everyone "officially" into our small teams, and WOW!, God really put everyone exactly where they need to be! I am in the Yellow team, and this year the Yellow team is going to MOVE! I can not believe how it is possible for 5 people, to mix, match and adapt to each other. I know we only started, but WOW!, this is really a new family to me. I will never forget my old team, and I love them dearly, but this is a new chapter, one which will only be written by God. So,...
