Friends from the North came to visit us. A visit, like the Englishman says, long overdue. Because of Covid and other challenges, we haven’t seen each other for years, and we were so excited to spend a weekend together. And we really enjoyed the weekend. The four of us spent the whole Saturday driving around […]
Read moreWillie describes how the Lord is working in his life: Last night my wife was suffering from a terrible toothache. We couldn’t get to the dentist because the main road had a taxi blockade. All I have to give God is love. So, I gave my humble praise to the Lord and acknowledged His goodness […]
Read moreDid you know that demons aren’t atheists? Even these beings whom Satan controls believe in God. They know God, and they know that they will face Him one day. That’s why they fear Him and start shaking when they think of Him. 19Do I hear you professing to believe in the one and only God, […]
Read moreJames’ golden thread of doing is not finished by a long shot. He will hit that nail on the head a few times more. But I suspect he does it because we easily fall back into our old way of doing things and then don’t see the effect of our faith. I must say I […]

Read moreI’ve never met Dolf, but we chat often. He’s from the real Johannesburg. He calls a spade a spade.

Read moreI’ve never been a fan of the beach. My mom says that when I was a baby, I didn’t like touching the sand. If she tried to put me down, I immediately started crying and pulled up my legs. My dad always said the sea made him feel sticky and actually only went to the […]
Read moreThis weekend I was officiating at the wedding ceremony of my brother’s daughter in the mountains just outside Rawsonville. The ceremony was held outside. The weather forecast said it was going to rain. There was no plan B. So, everybody prayed. I also asked for the Lord’s favour, that He would take the rain to […]
Read moreOf all the books in the Bible, James is my favourite. Probably because it contains such practical, I could even say down to earth guidelines, to help one live right. If you want to know what a Christian should do, if you want to know what your life should look like each day here on […]
Read moreRaymond tells about a very special meeting: About seven years ago I had a wonderful experience and I believe the Lord wants me to share it with other people: Suddenly I was in the presence of a Being who could only be the Lord. I could not see His face, only the outlines of His […]
