Jesus suffered your suffering

Sometimes, things simply grow. You didn’t even plan for it, but when you look back after a while, you see that the Lord has provided. When we entered our ministry full-time, we never thought it would look like it does today. I suspect if we had a glimpse of what it looks like now, we […]

Jesus is still helping

The angels weren’t influenced by Adam and Eve’s wrong choices. The angels do exactly what God wants them to do. They only do what is right and is actually unable to do what is wrong. The devil has no hold on them. Therefore, it wasn’t and isn’t necessary for Jesus to come and save them […]

A little afraid of death

Often, I find myself fearing death just a little bit. Especially when things are hard, like when the COVID-19 virus is threatening humanity. When the economic markets drop lower than low, there is always just this thought that this might be the end. As I wonder about this, my phone keeps beeping, and some of […]

Your biggest creditor has been paid!

Marika, our administrative righthand, works very, very hard, and I’m so grateful I could give her an increase. But what a shocker to see how much of the increase goes into her pocket and how much to the receiver of revenue. Yes, I know we have to pay tax, but eish, it’s like paying a […]

What do you say to the family?

Marlene tells the story of a doctor from Klerksdorp who struggled financially as a student. His brother who had already qualified as a doctor occasionally left money in his bible without saying anything. Therefore, he made sure to read his Bible every night. What a nice story. That’s what brothers and sisters should actually do […]

The offer of a lifetime

I share any good offer I hear of to all my WhatsApp groups. A while ago I heard about good, proper Namibian hardwood. I must confess I believe this is the best wood for a braai. I spread the word and the first load fills up quickly. Eventually, I’m forced to order a second load. […]

Suffering brings victory

God and Jesus’ plan to save the world from eternal damnation was not an easy one. It brought enormous hurt and suffering. That Jesus had to leave heaven was already a terrible thing. I don’t think people can really understand how hard it must’ve been for Jesus as God to “descend” and get into human […]

God is thinking about you

Sometimes in your life there comes a season when nothing is working out. Recently, I was spending many hours every day on the layout of my new book. I was learning to use a new programme, but with all the struggling I got to know it and made good progress. Until the programme started crashing […]

The world views Jesus through us

Jesus and God created the earth. That is so. Look at the majestic mountains. Look at the tiny flowers. Look at the roaring waters of the ocean. Listen to the strong winds blowing in the Cape, as if they could pierce through everything. There must be a God. Look at mankind, how beautifully we have […]
