You are the God who sees me

…”You are the God who sees me”. Genesis 16.13

Let this weeks video blog encourage you!

Hello our friend

First of all we wish you a happy new year! It rained a lot in San Francisco this week, but somehow God made it so that the rain didn’t stop us to meet with others, in some way it always stopped the days and times we met with people. The only time we had to deal with the rain was on our way to dinner to a local friends house. Isn’t that great!! God makes a way. Let it also encourage you for this new year that God will also make a way for you where it may seem impossible!

Don’t forget this year that God sees you and is with you in good and bad times!

God bless you

A journey through the bible The Books of Chronicles

This weeks blog is about the books of Chronicles and about the trust of those Kings. Be inspired!!

Hi our friend

We hope your week was wonderful!!!

The last week I would call a people week. I cant remember the last time i got in touch with that many people in one week. So many different conversations and times together were wonderful. Times with a listening ear, an encouraging word, inspiration and helping hand, last week had it all. And the greatest thing is that in each of those interactions everyone left encouraged. Especially in this season everyone needs others. Be one or multiple of those things things to your neighbors and see how it will also be a blessing to you!! Let us all shine the light of Jesus through our lives in times that are dark for many!

Like we talked about in todays video blog,  ask God to show you the areas in your life where you haven’t let him in yet and invite him into those and trust him!

God bless you

One last one on I believe help me in my unbelief

I believe, help me in my unbelief Mark 9.24

This is the last blog to our year topic with a little encouragement.

 

Hi our friend

We hope you enjoy this Advent season. Hopefully, you got some time to reflect on the love of God in this time and also spending time with his other children!!

One of the highlights of our week here was to bake brownies for 90 of our neighbors, pack them up and give them out in a safe way with our Christmas card. It was so wonderful to see how much joy it brought to our neighbors and us! We also had a few encouraging meetings with like-minded people this week which was awesome!

One thing all of us need in this season is community and each one of us can bring it to each other. week Jen and I will start this week to get ready for Christmas with neighbors which will be virtual this year like Thanksgiving. But that doesn’t mean it was less fun. Everyone who joined us loved it and also felt part of a community. We want to encourage you to include your neighbors into your Christmas planning. Sing Christmas carols and eat together and let them be part of your community. Invite them to celebrate with you in a virtual way like on zoom.

Also Take time this week to thank God in areas where he helped you to overcome your unbelief in this last year and ask him to grow even more in your faith!

God bless you

Thankfulness a weapon against unbelief

I believe, help me in my unbelief Mark 9.24

This weeks topic is about our theme of the year. This month’s we are talking very fittingly with Thanksgiving about thankfulness and how it can help overcome unbelief

Hi our friend

Happy thanksgiving friend!!

We had a great week in San Francisco. We worked more on prepration for the love your neighbor workshop on December 5th. Join us and its easy since it is on zoom! Just email us for the detailts! We are excited. We also started to plan for thanksgiving. Usually we would have a big table with many guests in our apartment, but this year we will have a virtual thanksgiving meal. Since we cant meet up in person with people we will cook a turkey and the sides and then pack it in to go boxes and our guests can pick it up at our door and then we all meet up virtually. So if you try to figure out how to connect with family and neighbors over thanksgiving or christmas with the lockdowns, this is a way.

Also a little challegne for this week, find every morning and evening 5 things that you are thankful for to God and speak them out loud. Speak them especially into the direction of your unbelief!!

God bless you

Unbelief and how it sneaks in our life

I believe, help me in my unbelief Mark 9.24

This weeks topic is about our theme of the year. This month we want to talk about how unbelief comes into our life and starts to take over.

Hi our friend

We hope you had an amazing week!!

Our week in San Francisco was good. We got ready for 2 church services. One we spoke at last sunday and the other one is next Sunday. It’s exciting to see how God keeps opening doors for us to share about loving your neighbor. Please keep our workshop in prayer. It will be December 5th and we will teach and share out of our experience how to love your neighbor and build a stronger community where you live. We believe that god is using each one of us to bring the love of jesus to people right around us, our neighbors. So join in!!

Also dont forget to spend time with God and let him show you how unbelief sneaks in your life and how to overcome it!!

God bless you

Markus and Jen
