...choice...

Hii ♡

Todays topic is about a choice everyone has to make, with or without evidence.

So let’s start!

First of all read Matthew 28:19.

God tells us to go into the world and make disciples. He asks us to SPREAD his word.

But sometimes we understand this as „go spread the word and make shure everyone believes it“. This is not what God means. He has given everyone a free will so He lets you choose: whether you believe in Him or you don’t. He does not force you to believe in Him. He could but he doesn’t do that!

So now what He asks you to do is to TELL the world about Him. This means that He gives everyone that choice.

But now you might think „what’s the point in just telling people?“. Here is the point: you tell people so that they can have this fair choice. You can’t make a choice if you only now one part of the question. (Example: your mom asks: worms or pasta? -> if she only tells you that she could make worms you will never now that there could have been something better.)

We need to tell people about God so that they can really make a choice.

You will see that many people will choose God. Not only because of what you have told them about God but also because of your style of living (being kind, loving, caring...).

But REMEMBER: you’re job is just to tell about God and give them a real chance to make this choice. After telling you just can pray and be an example to them by living a christian life.

So don’t force people to make the same choice as you. 

Also read: 

Isaiah 58:10-11

Joshua 1:9

Ephesians 5:1-2

!!!John 1:1-13!!!

Revelation 3:20

(Maybe I have put some of these verses already in my earlier blogposts but they are just so powerful :))

Summerizing images:

-> if people don’t know God there only choice can be something else than God

-> we need to show people who God is so that they can make a fair choice

Be blessed ♡ 

FAITH!

Heyy!!!

Long time since I have blogged but here I go again ;-).

I read this bible verse this week: 

„These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised, since God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.“

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11:39-40‬ ‭NIV‬‬

It reminded me about something that had been bothering me for a while.

I thought that because you don’t get something you have to trie harder and harder all the time and if you are not able to get it you are a failure. But that isn’t true! 

We need God to help us „get“ things. He doesn’t do all the work but He helps us and gives us strength, wisdom,... (for example: you need to walk yourself, God wil not walk for you but He will give you strength to be able to walk).

But sometimes God doesn’t help us because it is not what He has planned for us. You might want something that isn’t what God wants for you. Then you are trying and trying to get it by your own strength and you won’t be able to get it (or atleast not in the way you wanted it). And often when you don’t get it, you feel like you failed. But that isn’t really true: you just failed because it wasn’t the will of God. You need to trust God, do the things that He askes you to do and trust in His plan. His plan never fails. 

It might be that He has promised you something but you haven’t „got“ it yet and you feel like God forgot (you) or that it wasn’t from God. But don’t feel like that because God promises you that His plan is perfect and that when it is the right time for Him, He will give you what He promised!

Have faith in what God has planned for you and the promises He made.

(Read also Hebrews 11:1)

Hey people!!

Here I am again with a new painting :,-). But I just want to share this with you because I feel like there is a message behind this picture!

So when you first look at this picture you see a guy and a girl. Your first reaction is like „oo romantic“.

But when you think again you might see what I see in it: the „guy“ isn’t just a guy but is Jesus.

You see that this girl is standing in the midst of darkness but then there is that light...

This light is formed like a heart. Because God promised us that He would send His son to this world to bring light and love.  Romans 5:8

In the right corner of the heart you see some red color. This symbolizes Jesus who died at the cross so our sins would be forgiven. 1 Peter 2:24

You might be walking trough darkness, trough hard times. But you don’t need to stay away from God, His love, His help, His forgiveness,... 

Sometimes we think because we are in darkness we can’t enjoy God or His love and presence. But that’s a lie!!! God wants us to walk with Him and trust Him even when it’s hard. 

Sometimes your not able to walk with Him but he is patient: He will wait for you and start walking again when you are ready. But even while your still and resting He is there and you can rest in His presence.

Don’t be ashamed to spend time with God. He wants to spend time with you even while your broken. 

He loves us and we need to believe it too! He send His only son to this world to save us. So if that isn’t a reason why we should believe that He really loves us I don’t know what would.

1 John 1:7

John 8:12

Joshua 1:9

Romans 8:38

1 John 4:10

Isaiah 9:2

_Welcome Fall_

Heyy guys!

Fall is on it's way! Well actually I don't really like fall. It's such a dark period and it takes still so long until spring. But on the other hand I love candles and thick pullovers! 

Talking of candles this made me think about and aspect in life we often forget (and with 'we' I include myself). Fall is a dark period but it doesn't take the whole year, we have hard periodes (=dark periods) in our life but they never take our whole life. During this fall time (=dark period) we still have little fun things: like candles, warm pullovers, hot chocolate,... The same is with the dark periods in our life: they are not dark every hour of every day. We can still make the best out of those periods and have little fun things.

-1 Corintians 4:5-

-Psalm 139:12-

-Joshua 1:9-

!Remember the little things in life. Don't just think that the big things matter, the little are important too. And we need especially those little things during hard (=> dark) times.

Brussels by day, blogging by night

Do you guys have a favorite city?

Mine is Brussels!!! Why you might wonder well because there are so many people with so different backgrounds: some might be born in Brussels and might live there their whole life, others might have moved there for work, some might be immigrants and still some might just love the city. And what I really love about the people there is that they are from all over the world: Amerika, Afrika, Asia and ofcourse Europe ;-). What I really like too is the atmosphere! You can't imagine it but when you get into the city you just feel it!!! And somehow God is in the midst of the city. He led all the people there for a reason. And once I'm old innough I'm going there to minister! So that other people can feel Gods presence there (and actually every where) too!!! 

You know why I really want to minister in Brussels? Well because there are so many needs: around every corner you find somebody you'll be able to pray for and help. Brussels needs ministers!!! And I'm going to be one of them, you can be shure of that ❥ 

~Matthew 5:14~

~Matthew 28:19-20~

~Acts 13:47~

Just btw today I went into the city to visit the new clothesstore Arket. After wards we still walked to Grand Place and drank a Starbucks frappuccino. We had a lot of fun!

Starbucks ^ ;-p

Be the light!

Hey!

This week i made a new painting.

Somehow this painting inspired me! Because sometimes when we look at the world we just look around us and see darkness and a world that is a mess. But this isn't the way we should look at the world! Often we just see darkness but we have to look further and then we will see the blooming flowers! And as christians we are like that light that is shining. We might not see  it ourselves but that's who we are and other people will notice!

Read Mathhew 5:16
I love that verse!!!

Be blessed!
