Leave a reply

Most of us heard it said many times that we are children of God. Over the next few weeks, we want to look at some character trades of children and how they are important for us in living as a child of God. Be inspired and encouraged through this series!

Hi our friend

Its so wonderful that we all can enjoy the summer weather!! We just love it!!

Jen and I had a refreshing time on our vacation. Since we are back we had a meeting with all the ywam bay area ministries on zoom which was really encouraging. We also had a wonderful time with a prayer walk we led in our neighborhood with our church. Prayer walking is something we can all easily do in our neighborhoods and it makes a huge difference!! So do one this week!!

And along with our blog series make sure to let God help you to trust him like a child!

God bless you

I have to say our February in San Francisco was awesome! We had so much time with people, amazing weather and many God moments. Doors opened this month in big ways too which is super exciting. Last weekend we got to meet with a friend who helped us get started in the editing process of the book which is such a blessing. We just feel hold and guided by God all along the way. So awesome!!

Start this week to take a step in faith to increase your trust and also to give unbelieve a smaller and smaller role in your life!! You can do it!!

God bless you

All my life you have been faithful

Leave a reply

Recently I was listening to a worship song called Goodness of God. One of the lines is “All my life you have been faithful”. I love that truth in that line that God is always faithful.

But In a world where we see unfaithfulness and betrayal all the time its easy to fall into a pit and start thinking and believing that God might not be faithful either. We might look back at our life and look at the moments of failure and hard times we went through and wonder Is God really faithful? Maybe we started to believe a lie: Because we got sucked into the world and started being faithless we blew his faithfulness and now He might not be faithful either anymore.

In 2.Timothy 2.13 it says: If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for he cannot deny Himself.

So Paul makes a clear statement about God here in Timothy God will and cannot deny Himself. He will always be faithful. We see that through the whole bible how even people failed and things in the world went wrong, God was still faithful and stayed true to his promise. So when we look back in our life, we have to look with the truth of this statement. We have to look at the moments in our life where we feel God hasn’t been faithful and ask him to show us the truth about this situation. If he doesn’t show us anything about a specific case we have to come back to the truth He cannot be unfaithful.

When I look back at my own life I see moments where things were really hard. There were times were I was bullied in school were friends walked away from me, God never did. He was right with me in those hard moments. Why did those things happen then you might ask. People have free will and make choices. Some of them affect others in a bad way. But even when that happens God is still right there with us and he is still faithful. He is faithful in the good and bad moments in our life.

We want to encourage you to look back at your life and first see all the clear moments where god has been faithful in your life and write them down. Then after you did that,  go in Prayer together with him to the places where you believe he hasn’t and let Him speak to you. It will change your life!!

Hi our friend

We hope you had a wonderful week! Jen and i enjoyed our vaccation and are back starting this week. Sometimes we all need a break and this one was so refreshing for both of us. We hope you got a good break too recently!!

Remember this week to look at your life and write out the moments you remember where God was faithful and ask him about the ones where you think he wasn’t!

Have a blessed week!!

Markus and Jen
