I wanted to write about obedience to God for about a week now, but I’ve been struggling. For a little while now I’ve been getting messages on this topic and even in my quiet times I’ve heard the word “Obedience” in my head. So I know that God is trying to tell me something, but [...]

If you read my blog regularly you might have noticed that my age is starting to worry me a bit, although I try to keep Sarah’s story in mind when my faith falters. So it’s logical that I would research it and do a post on the older parents in the Bible: Genesis 11:30-32 (NIV): “30 [...]

Remember this post? It’s one of my favourites because so many people commented on it and I loved to get everyone’s opinion.

I mentioned yesterday that I’ve been looking for some encouragement in God’s word lately and yesterday I read something in my reference Bible that I want to share with you.

My previous post was about doubts and fears and I described how I asked God to give me a message to help me with it. He immediately gave me a message and I was so thankful. It helped me a lot and I was actually satisfied with the answer. I didn’t expect to get another [...]

Have you ever wondered whether you are being punished for something and that that is the reason you are infertile? For many years I thought I was being punished and I wracked my brain to find out what sin could have caused it. I was constantly begging for forgiveness for my sins, but still no [...]
