Testimony Danny – Theater weekend


In January a whole team from our church went to the theatre weekend of Carla Veldhuis in the Netherlands. This has become an annual tradition...

Danny, who went with us from the start, tells us part of her story:

"In 2015 the three of us decided to go from Belgium to the theatre weekend of Carla Veldhuis in the Netherlands. I was a bit nervous about it and also a bit worried that we would be among the oldest attendees, even though I was very hungry for more. Arriving on Friday evening our suspicion was immediately confirmed: our grey hair stood out among that of many other young participants. I saw a somewhat older couple and immediately felt a little better. Later on, these people turned out to be no ordinary participants, they were part of the prayer team.

Recovery from a severe burn out

“For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.” (2 Cor 4:5)

I was doing for over 30 years all kind of leadership tasks in the church of Jesus, when a concurrence of events led to a complete mental crash. I entered unexpectedly and unwantedly a period of burn-out that would last several years.

I was relieved of my job as fulltime pastor and I was obliged to stop my involvement in Christian Flanders. I did not preach anywhere for over a year, although I had been doing this for years throughout the whole of Flanders. I even felt written off by God and fellow human beings. The civil society declared that I was incapable to work.

"It happened early in August at the seaside. Jasmijn, my daughter, and me were sitting on the beach. The children were playing at a distance of 4 or 5 meters from us in the front of the water. Suddenly I heard Bram screaming and I just still saw how he fell through his legs.

He tried to stand up again, he was leaning on his left foot and when he lifted his right leg in order to take a step, I literally could see his little right foot dangling at the leg... it looked as if it was completely dislocated and as if it was only hanging fastened to the skin. When he wanted to put down his right foot, it swept aside, and again he cried out and he fell down. It took me two steps to reach him and I lifted him up. I have prayed immediately, together with Jasmijn, and I have proclaimed recovery, power and strength over his foot and over his ankle joint. We sent all pain away in Jesus' name. Almost immediately Bram stopped crying. We put him on his feet and we told him that he could go on playing. At the first steps he still limped a little, but after that it was totally in order again... thank You, Jesus!"
