Also

And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at the Lord’s feet, and heard his word.
Luke 10:39 ASV

My mind just got stuck at the word ‘also’. When I read the word also while in the story of Martha and Mary, I just got aware of the fact how lonely I had been during this time of Covid and lockdowns and not being able to just enjoy faith together with friends and church family.

Winter survival!

Today it’s like 20 degrees celcius warmer then three days ago. We went from minus 10°C to plus 10°C. It’s one of the few big temperature rises I love, because now spring is coming.

Little Boy in the Blue Pyjamas

Hey little boy in the blue pyjamas,
Did you know that I’ve been watching you?
I saw you playing a lot outside,
Mostly just on your own.

Party planner

Martha received and welcomed the Lord in her house, but still didn’t had time to listen to Him. I ask God a lot too.. I ask God to come over, I do invite Him in, but then I forget to just sit at His feet. I play music for Him; I listen to sermons about Him; I talk about Him. But I forget to take time to really listen to Him. I’m more like a party planner, always thinking about what is coming up next.

Break my heart

I once the prayed ‘break my heart for what breaks yours, everything I am is for your kingdoms cause’. Well I’ve known what I prayed back then…

The highest of heights

A little while ago I have seen the highest mountain of the earth. It looked amazing, at least the part I could see…

God renewed His Promise

God spoke today, touched my heart. He was there, like really nearby.

Time to listen..

Well, today was a weird day. I had to draw the conclusion that everything is not going quite as it should be. So that was a disappointment… I had hoped to enjoy everything again and was preparing myself for working more, but we’ll have to see about that.

Christmas time!

Christmas at my place

I do love the Christmas season, like the decorations, music, lights, get together, etc. Well, it’s not that my entire home is Christmas, but I like to put on the tree very early, even before the first of December and Sinterklaas.

My beloved

Recently I listened to this song of Cloverton (what a beautiful voice, by the way!). The song is called great plans. And the lyrics start with ” Hello, my love, Your future waits for you’.
