YOU WILL CRUSH FIERCE LIONS AND SERPENTS UNDER YOUR FEET! Psalm 91:13

Nathalie and Werner Steurbaut, a couple from our church, are living in Uganda since 2008. They run a home for children where now 115 children found a safe place to grow up!

On 26th October they went to have a bite to eat in a restaurant at Victoria lake in Entebbe. As they got back in the car, Nathalie opened her window before driving off. At that moment a snake fell into the car.

The Father heart of God? I already know that!

“I already know it all – so I thought. I had read and heard a lot about the Fatherheart of God, knowing the songs about “His Fatherheart that has been caring for me for so long” I prayed to “Father in heaven.”

I didn’t expect to learn something new at the conference about this topic. Nevertheless… I discovered during this week that the Fatherheart school is not about learning more about God’s Fatherheart, but rather to help you experience the love of the Father. It wasn’t about the concept of God as Father but about the love of My Father for me. E.g. during that week He spoke to me in the silence of my heart : “My Love casts away your fears.” And I am worth it to receive His Love! That makes it suddenly very personal, it is about His relationship with me, who He wants to be for me and who I am in His sight!”

In March 2012 the back specialist told Ludwine she needed surgery. She had a narrowing of the spinal canal thereby pinching the nerves.

Without surgery, this would lead to paralysis of the legs and life in a wheelchair. She was startled at this diagnosis, but together with Jesus she could cope. So we prayed for a smooth surgery and a miraculous recovery. On 28th June 2012 Ludwine had a successful surgery. The rehabilitation took a long time but went smoothly. All the while Ludwine kept saying she couldn’t have gone through this without her faith in a loving Father who gave her the strength to persevere with patience and in tranquility. The many cards, phone calls, prayers and visits of people from church were certainly a big help too.

At the last check up at the specialist one year after the surgery X-rays were taken. The specialist was visibly surprised and said that the cartilage at the spot of the surgery was restored. This is exceptional as with most patients this takes up to 3 or 4 years but Ludwine was already healed! Now Ludwine could tell the doctor that she was very grateful for his precious hands but also that she prayed and that God took over once the specialist had finished his part!
