Basics in life… a word in time of corona virus

Today I had this in mind while jogging …


back to basics … EAT … DRINK … be happy …

Ecclesiastes 8:15

So I commend the enjoyment of life, because there is nothing better for a person under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany them in their toil all the days of the life God has given them under the sun.


Such a small virus should make us think about the really important things or people in our lives … I don’t know about you with all the restrictions … but our fridge is more than full, the toilet paper is full hoarded … with some more with some less … and now it is time to pray and thank before eating again and to enjoy nature, because even this is not a matter of course … stay healthy, throw your Worrying in prayer upon the Lord because He cares for us …
shalom and do not worry – be happy !!!

Eternal truth

The exchange on the cross

Almost 2000 years ago, an exchange took place at a cross in the Middle East, more precisely in Jerusalem. A timeless exchange, valid for everyone who makes the decision to become a follower of this Jesus Christ. Derek Prince, an English philosophy professor who met Jesus as a young soldier in World War II in Israel, briefly summarized this exchange.
You can read it for yourself in the specified Bible passages, there you will discover many truths and you can claim them for yourself personally, because the gospel is the good news of Jesus, who did everything for you. Yes it is a perfect work for salvation of your soul, all glory to the Lamb of God and at the same time to the lion of Judah.
