Pushed to the source
I've always felt like a little lamb that doesn't know which way to go but is constantly being gently nudged towards the source by the ewe (God). Just when I stuck my head under the fence again, that gentle nudge came again...

In this new newsletter, many other children and young people tell you real experiences from their everyday lives and what moves them. A big THANK YOU to everyone who shares their experiences with us. Because if you have already forgotten it, others can benefit from it.
It was the first day I could go to kindergarten. In the morning, when mom got me ready in time, we noticed that I only had one each of my sandals and sneakers left...
This summer, many new children joined us in the first kindergarten group. They are caterpillars, and I have now become a "butterfly" (that's the big ones in the second year of kindergarten). I really enjoy being a role model in kindergarten...
A lot of people tell me that I'm a "bright spark". I can also make my siblings laugh quite well. Dad and mom say that I'm a "happiness hormone" (I don't know what that is, but I think it's something great 😊).
To hold up the staff means to do the same as Moses did at the sea. BEFORE the sea was parted, or the impossibility dissolved, he first had to hold up his staff in FAITH. Only THEN did this amazing miracle happen and the sea parted!
"God always says YES! To every single confession of mine - no matter if out of faith or out of unbelief. He always and exclusively says YES to it." (internal message of Sept. 3, 2022) Uhgg! If that's true, then I have to immediatly watch out what I say!!! Do you know how many more things come out of my mouth, where God just says YES to it because I said so? For example, "I'll never get it right." He says, "Yes!" "I'm always the problem" "Yes!" "Life is really sad ..." "Yes!" "I think I'm sick", "Yes!" etc.
I'm sure you know that situation where you are faced with an important decision in your life and do not know which is the right way. If you are not alone in such a situation, but together with someone (e.g. as a couple), it is usually not easier, because often there are two opinions, which is now the "better" way. How good, when you're not helpless in this situation, but know that God has a rhema (current word) in every situation.
For as long as I can remember, the same scene has repeated itself over and over again on our family vacations. At some point we just sit until late at night and listen to the most exciting stories from the time when we were still in diapers or did not even exist. One question follows the last one and again and again something new comes up, so that you 'feel like' you had never heard this before.
We have been married for four years now and from the beginning we had a great desire to have children. Unfortunately, it did not work out as we had imagined and wished. Getting pregnant in itself was not so easy and when it did work out, our dreams were shattered again after twelve weeks at the latest.
