Genesis 50. Ingenooi deur God. Ons raak bewus van ons diepste behoeftes, vrae en vrese en gee ons oor aan God. “… I thought I had it, but suddenly I remembered all the others I’ve missed, and the past got in my eyes.”.

Ingenooi deur God Ons raak bewus van ons diepste behoeftes, vrae en vrese en gee ons oor aan God
“… I thought I had it, but suddenly I remembered all the others I’ve missed, and the past got in my eyes.”
Die wonder van die lewe begin as ons ons vyand deur ’n skoner lens, met God se bril van liefde, sien
Ingaan in God se tyd Ons betree God se wêreld en gaan in God se vrede in
Luister na God se Woord Ons luister dieper na die Woord en ontmoet God
Luister na mekaar God maak ons ’n luisterende gemeenskap en praat ook deur ander mense met ons
Luister na ander en die tye Ons stel onsself oop om God van onverwagse kante af te hoor
Luister weer na God se Woord Ons fokus op die Gees se beweging in ons hart en gedagtes

“I guess the answer to that question is another question: Where is the church when it hurts? If the church is doing its job — binding wounds, comforting the grieving, offering food to the hungry — I don’t think people will wonder so much where God is when it hurts. They’ll know where God is: in the presence of his people on earth.” Phillip Yancey
