  I feel invincible.  God is really forcing us to trust Him. We have no other choice. We have no money for accommodation, we bumb showers in restaurants' basins (and get chased out. No jokes. We ran) then we hardly have money for food. We are hungry, dirty, robbed, homeless, then a biker passes us and asks if we want to volunteer on his uncle's olive farm? Where we will have free accommodation, food and live like royalty. In a matter of 3 days we can look, smell and feel like bergies and next moment we enjoy the beautiful tranquility...

So many time in my life I had Asked myself, why? Why doesn’t I hear the voice of God, my Father or even Jesus my best friend? The word “relationship” have a definition that really made me think 💭 Relationship- The state of being connected by blood . ‭‭Luke‬ ‭22:20‬ “After supper he took another cup of wine and said, “This cup is the new covenant between God and his people—an agreement confirmed with my blood, which is poured out as a sacrifice for you.” How cool is this just to think about it. We are connected to God through...

I have the privilege of dancing in (on a trampoline!) each new day while the beautiful New Zealand sun are starting to peek over the nearby hills. This morning  I were just pondering Lamentations 3:22,23 about God's mercy and compassion being new every morning.  And I realized how amazing the full meaning of this verse is! Toward the end of today, a new day will break across the globe in Africa. And all the time, every moment of today, it will be morning somewhere on earth. For God, viewing the earth as a whole, there is no such thing as...

"27 March 2012 – 12 April 2012 : Cayman Islands"

This what was written on our itinerary we received for this year, but now looking back, I realize that it isn't the dates that matter but the dash in between those dates. That dash represents all our days and all our hours in Cayman weather it was spend praying, having fellowship with people, practising for the church service we presented, cooking, helping to fix a lady's home after a hurricane or explaining to the kids next door over the fence that Jesus loves them. That dash carries every moment.

What? How does that work? It does, if you're a sinner. I am a very honest person and I want you to fully understand my journey, so yeah, sometimes you're going to think I am an absolute fool. Great! Please think that, because my friend, that's exactly how gross and sinful and foolish I am, without God. Great thing that God doesn't leave us in our sins. Thank God He doesn't. Now of course, you want the juice (news) of what I have done. I thought that I had the right to want. I started to want the things other...

For the past 3 weeks we have been exploring Cuba. Travelling between Havana and Santiago, we experienced the flavours and colours of Cuban food, shopping, worship, socialising and God's hand in it all. I wrote down a few tips and tricks we learnt during our stay. The budget traveller's guide to Cuba Accommodation: Throughout Cuba, foreigners can rent rooms in the locals' houses, these are called Casa Particulares and are marked with a special sign which indicates that it is 'legit'. Be sure to do a lot of Casa Particulares-shopping before settling, as their prices and quality differ. God was...

Cancun airport We arrived in Cancun and got through immigration with no problems, we even went as far as to ask them about the required flight tickets out that we were forced to buy from Cubana air and were told that it is not true. We gathered our bags and went into the departures part of the airport to see if we can get someone from Cubana air to talk to, but the Cubana air ticket counter was closed. We settled in and went in search of a few things, info was helpful and told us that the Cubana air...

INFORME MEMORIA 2015   De: Carlos Daniel Vásquez Shuña A: Global Challenge Fecha: Lima, 04 de noviembre2015 Referencia: En todos estos 23 años he servido junto a mis padres en mi país en los diferentes lugares como costa sierra y selva según  el Señor nos haya enviado y en enero de este año 2015 empecé con una petición en la cual oraba y buscaba de Dios, pasando tiempo en su presencia con el deseo de que el tuviera el control de mi vida y le clamaba a Dios que me utilizara según su voluntad. Le decía que no importaba lo...

  Hey everyone   We are currently in Morocco and I must admit that it is awesome.  The people here are great and the weather cannot be better.   Our first few days were spent in Fes, right inside the old city.  We stayed at some of the South Africans living there and got to see such a lot of the place.  One of the workers in Fes took us prayer walking on Friday and in the process we were invited by some of the locals for Sunday lunch.   Sunday lunch was one of the most memorable lunches ever.  Not...

  These words pronounced with a strong carribean accent, Usain Bolt, Bob Marley, Rastafarians and Cool Runnings were about the sum total of what I knew about Jamaica. After our visit to the island, this picture got some colour. Turqoois, clear water, a small island with hills and lush vegetation, hundreds of Palm trees, tropical fruits, friendly people and a tropical laid back atmosphere were added. What is sad about this picture is the smell of dagga that completes it. Dagga is cheaper than food and holds so many captive.    We arrived at Kingston and was spoiled with Blue...
