South Africa - Egypt - Israel - Turkey - London - Guatemala/Mexico - London - Russia - China - Malaysia - Thailand - India - South Africa. This is what the year holds for me.... I want to encourage you, live your life full out for God, He is the Way the Truth and the Life and therefore you can not miss out on life by living for Him! Reaching other people or doing missionary work is not an event, it is a life-style... God said: Matthew 28:19-20 "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on...

What a way to wake up after a rather topsy turvy start to NZ... I can hardly believe its over, its nausiating really... but the good kind.. the I 've got butterflies from excitement 'cause I know what lies ahead kind.. the realisation of how much we need Jesus kind.. the scream into your pillow and kick your legs around kind.. the look how God rocked our world in NZ kind! After being fined 400 dollars for an orange at the airport (insert little gag effect here), we were greeted by Work Your Way (another team who we seem to run into often) Clara (project...

What an amazing experience! I have to confess that my day started out on a really low note, definitely a bass 2 ;) However, as soon as we entered the garden tomb it was as if I did not have a choice but to bubble and burst with jubilation. It’s as if one’s spirit and soul just automatically want to bounce around (much, much more than the energizer bunny!) and almost can’t be contained. Even thinking about it now lifts my spirit with joy! Golgotha Jesus’ Tomb - He is not here, for He has risen. We were...
"We must be known for hope for the day we live in, as the purposes of God are always great. He will do everything needed, according to His promises for His victorious bride." - Bill Johnson If God doesn’t build the house, the builders only build shacks. If God doesn’t guard the city, the night watchman might as well nap. It’s useless to rise early and go to bed late, and work your worried fingers to the bone. Don’t you know He enjoys giving rest to those He loves? (Psalm 127:1-2 MSG) It takes wisdom to build a house,...
Northbound (Our team) went to China after Russia. We were on the Trans-Siberian train for 4 days and used the great opportunity to reflect on our busy time in Russia. We arrived in Beijing at the main train station and was shocked to see so many thousands of people. It was very hot and the smog (low hanging smoke) was very bad. We couldn't go out of our hostel without returning wet because of the heat. Beijing In Beijing we could get physically and spiritually ready for our time in China. We ate in restaurants all the time because it...

First impressions and getting there My first impressions of Cuba was when we landed at the airport, while waiting to go to immigration an old movie was playing (it looked as if it came from the 50's) with subtitles in Spanish that has been redone since you can see the old subtitles blurred out like in a bad pirated movie. The next funny moment was as I were going through security after immigration, all the security and airport personal woman wore miniskirts and fishnet stockings, I had to try very hard to keep my laughter in. The country itself is...

Sharing stories in Colombia Just a quick testimony of how awesome God is in teaching us what he wants to teach us, when he wants to teach us, and using whatever he wants to, to show things to us. If you read my previous blog, I shared a bit about reading a book and then, after God showed me a few things through that, I started to focus a bit more on giving over and having fun, instead of over-complicating everything or being too serious all the time. He showed me that, amongst other things, he placed us on this...
