Looking at many christians today, there is often a question appearing in my mind. I guess almost every christian would say that missionaries are important and also many christians say that there are some people "called" to live somewhere doing something that makes them being dependent on support. BUT why do so many christians say that these are "some people but NOT me". Or even "everyone apart from me (and my children)". I'm glad that there are not too many people around me saying that. But I really would like to understand why so many people think like that.
There is this worldview the society has (it's all about money and reputation) and I think it's sad. I'm absolutly not against learning any profession or studying or having a lot of money. But I believe that there are also people called for something else. And by the way, missionary doesn't mean to be somewhere in a poor ountry. Every christian should be a missionary in the plae where he/she lives or works.

I am back...

Since Saturday evening I'm back in Germany. It's somehow really strange. Some things changed, some not. Since my future is still not planed yet, I have to force myself to rest and enjoy to do noting for a few dsays. Otherwise I tend to worry and that's wrong.
Anyway... my flight back was great even though one hour later (after I was already waiting for 5 or 6 hours). My Bags were no too heavy >PRAISE GOD<>
This was shortly before we ate our great BCC-midsummer-cake. Miss everyone already. It's a strange feeling to know that you are hours away. Looking forward to see you again some day :)

Yes, this was a fake picture, but actually it shows how we felt. I was super tired of being tired. After three months of just a few hours sleep ...-no wonder! but hte hard times made us strong ;)

Thanks to all who were praying for me! I know that without God I would have not be able to make this school! But by grace we did it!

(my german friends understand english, my other friends don't understand german. So I'll write english now.)
sunset on our weekend off. Sleeping somewhere outside

Half of the school is over. Actually more than half already. Basically the weeks are the same, but there are also special things from time to time. Two weeks ago we were on BRA (bible reading away) for 4 days including a short tripp to Norway :). Last weekend was our long weekend. That means 3 days off *yeahh*. From the three practical parts is just the preaching left. The small group bible study and teaching we left successful behind us.
I's somehow crazy. I never enjoyed reading a lot or studying for school. Now I find myself studying whole days and reading the bible for hours on many days (every book in one sitting). God promised that He'll capacitate me to make this school and even when there are times of tears I see that God is carrying me through.
But beside that God is doing so much. I thought I hade already many open doors infront of me, but it seems like God is opening even more. Now I really need to listen to Him. I was never good in making decisions. But he knows that :).
Looking forward to go back to Germany. Specially to just have a few days without doing anything, sleeping in MY bed and sleeping until I'm not tired anymore. Sounds great! ;) (But there are still 5 more weeks to enjoy Sweden and of course God's word! :)
Thank you guys for all the prayers! I could not make it without this support! It's not really possible to call me here, but I usually I have internet (email, Skype, Facebook) and there's of course the good old post! :)
Be blessed!

my studyplace :)

Some pictures :) and info

Bin jetzt also schon sei fast drei Wochen im schönen (kalten) Schweden bei YWAM Restenäs!

Mit mir studieren noch 5 weite Mädles. Es ist einfach toll immer wieder neues zu erkennen und mehr von Gott zu sehen/lernen.

Und Gott ist so treu! Er weiß wie sehr ich Natur liebe. Ohne zu wissen wie diese Base hier aussieht habe ich mich beworben und dann ist die Natur einfach der Wahnsinn! Freu mich aufs draußen studieren/lesen! :)

Sind nur zu zweit in einem Zimmer. das ist nach den 10 Wochen Outreach in denen man oft dicht an dicht gepennt hat, echt totaler Luxus!

Oh man. Kann euch nicht sagen wie toll die Sonnenuntergänge oft sind! Gott ist so kreaiv! Halleluja! Wie kann man so vielen Wundern in der Natur nicht an Gott glauben!?!...

Amazing Grace!

Das Lied mag ich, seit ich den tollen Film ("Amazing Grace") gesehen habe. Das Video hat mich grad echt berührt. Wozu Menschen fähig sind ist einfach schrecklich! Tut gut zu sehen, dass es immer wieder Leute gibt die aufstehen! Es sollte viel mehr geben!

next station!

Joar... also seit Samstag Abend 21Uhr bin ich also in YWAM Schweden. Die Zeit um was zu schreiben wird sehr knapp sein, aber das Internet ist mega schnell ;).
Ich hoffe der Frühling lässt sich hier auch bald blicken!
Segen euch!

I graduated!

Eine besondere Zeit in meinem Leben is vorbei. ich glaube bisher war nichts so prägend wie die letzten 6 Monate! Ich habe unglaublich tolle und verschiedene Menschen getroffen. Dem entsprechend hart und emotional war auch der Abschied!

Aber ich weiß, dass die DTS nur eine Vorbereitung war (genau wie es die BCC sein wird). Bin gespannt was noch kommen wird. Am Anfang der DTS war ich mega am zweifeln ob das der richtige weg ist. jetzt kann ich sagen, dass ich keine einzige Minute bereue! Das macht Mut für alles was in der Zukunft passieren wird.

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future . (Jeremiah 29,11)
