Hebrews 11:1

“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.”

John 5:24

“I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life…”

“Do not say there is no hope…  for breath is hope…  this moment, is hope…  that there is a sky and a single human alive with a soul burning with love, is hope…” ~ Brendon Burchard

“A man sees in the world, what he carries in his heart…” ~ Goethe

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him. Every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming. Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect himself from the elements, and to store his few possessions. One day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, with smoke rolling up to the sky. He felt the worst had happened, and everything was lost. He was stunned with disbelief, grief, and anger. He cried out, 'God! How could you do this to me?'

Early the next day, he was awakened by the sound of a ship approaching the island! It had come to rescue him! 'How did you know I was here?' asked the weary man of his rescuers. 'We saw your smoke signal,' they replied. The moral of the story: It's easy to get discouraged when things are going bad, but we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of our pain and suffering. Remember that the next time your little hut seems to be burning to the ground. It just may be a smoke signal that summons the Grace of God. ¬ Forward email

Daar gebeur daagliks dinge in ons lewens wat ons nie kan verstaan, of partykeer glad nie kan kleinkry oor hoekom God sekere dinge toelaat nie…  Slegte goed gebeur met goeie mense – daagliks…  Wanneer mens vasgevang is in die middel van alles, is dit partykeer moeilik om perspektief te hê of te kan verstaan wat aangaan nie…  Hoe treffend en waar is hierdie storie nie? Sooo baie keer kan moeilikheid vir ons so groot lyk, dat ons nie raaksien hoe God eintlik besig is om te werk in ons lewens nie...  Iets wat soos ’n ramp lyk, is moontlik ’n uitweg – of ’n “wonderwerk in wording”…   Wanneer ons swak is, is God sterk... God sal sorg vir jou – vandag, môre, altyd - al lyk die dinge vir jou hoe onmoontlik!   Onthou dat God op vreemde maniere werk, en soos die storie gesê het - as dit lyk of jou "hut" afbrand, kan dit dalk net God wees wat besig is om deur genade, wonderwerke aan jou te betoon... Jy is nie alleen vandag nie! God het jou BAIE lief!  As jy deur ‘n moeilike tyd gaan – hou aan vasbyt (moenie ongeduldig raak nie)!  God sal sorg vir ‘n wonderwerk!!

Blessings!
