I saw a video of a priest who said satan wasn’t fighting against Muhammed. He wasn’t fighting against Buddha, and even less against Krishna. He was only fighting against Jesus. Why?

Read moreMy mentor always says that the first thing you must do daily is to seek stillness and talk to your Creator. I don’t always manage to do it right away. Sometimes I’m up too early and then I scroll through the day’s news to wake up. This morning, I was up again around 04:00 and […]
Read moreThe devil makes it difficult for a person. He knows where your weak point is and will always hammer it. He doesn’t stop, and he never gets tired. It’s as if he believes he will break through with the next knock of the hammer. We know that the devil was defeated on the cross. We […]

Read more8 … be helpful, wise, fair, reverent … This is how all of us must be like. I struggle with “wise, fair, reverent”. God should’ve known what humans are like and that it is in our nature to go off course. Yes, it’s easy when things are going well, but when things don’t go the […]
Read moreMy friend from Durbanville calls me up. He is talking to a friend and they are wondering why Christians have to struggle so. Yes, they have enough to eat and drink and they are grateful for that, but sometimes it seems as if life is simply too hard. You struggle to keep everything going. So, […]
Read moreWhen I was in the army, it was hard. I was part of the Mech Infantry Unit and big operations in which the enemy was attacked with a lot of force occurred regularly.
