A whole new life

We received this very straightforward testimony from someone who attended our latest Fatherheart School.  She asked to remain anonymous, a request we gladly honor.

“For years I wrestled with life, it was like a struggle I had to survive somehow.  I felt left at the mercy of negative thoughts, depression, pain and loneliness. Whenever things were going a little better, I was already foreseeing things would get worse again.  I felt trapped in this circle. I thought I did all I could to get out of it but in reality it got worse until I was completely stuck.

God made no sense to me: if He really wanted the best for me, like I saw Him at work in the lives of the people around me…

Fasting days: a unique event

From 24 to 26 January we had again a few fasting days, this time in “de Boerekreek” in St.-Jan-in-Eremo (East-Flanders). It was the first time we went to this location and that always gives some extra tension. Will the rooms be ok? Will it be warm enough over there? Last year in the Ardennes it was very cold the first day since the heating was not up in time…
We were warmly welcomed by the staff of “de Boerekreek” and we got the restaurant for our meetings. The rooms were very clean and all rooms had a separate bathroom with a shower and a toilet and it was nicely warm everywhere, which is very nice when fasting a few days.

We enjoyed times of marvelous worship, powerful studies, many moments of silences – In which we could soak or go for a walk in the beautiful nature surrounding the center – and times of prayer for each other, the country, our churches and many other subjects.
As Tamara put it nicely: “We have been fed very well once again!”
