“Come, see a Man who told me all things that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?” Joh. 4:29
Hi! I am so glad you are here!
My name is Sandra, and I am the face behind this blog.
The idea to start this blog was because I already wrote down all my adventures and stories with God for myself. Sometimes, so many beautiful and special things happen that, if I do not write things down, I tend to forget. And I don’t want to forget what God does in my life!
So I decided to write everything down for myself. Everything I learned, everything God showed me or spoke to me, all the times I fell, and all the times I got back up over the past few years.
And then, one day………….

Choices
Sometimes you can reach a point in your life where you come to the conclusion that no matter what you do and how hard you try, there are unfortunately ‘only’ 24 hours in a day, LOL.
I am in such a period now. And luckily it is only nice and blessed things that fill my days (and half nights 😉), it is still a bit too much of a good thing.
“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” – James 1:17
All good things come from above (James 1:17) and that is how it is for me in this period of my life.
Everything that occupies me now comes from God and I see His Hand moving through my life, His goodness fills my days. Only, no matter how hard I tried the past months, and how I tried to split myself up to accomplish everything that God gives me, I just couldn’t fit it all into those 24 hours. I prayed and prayed for more hours in a day, but alas… there are still 24, LOL.
All the things God gives me I want to do with full conviction and put all my time and love into it, but I noticed that I can’t do that with everything at this point, and then you have to make choices.
So, I have decided to press the ‘pause button’ on a number of things until I get back into calmer waters, this blog page is one of them.
But don’t worry, writing is something God has given me, just like this blog page, so behind the scenes I will definitely continue to write down my stories and adventures with God and as soon as there is more ‘air’, they will definitely be online on the blog page.
Keep an eye on the Come see a Man website or sign up to receive an email as soon as a new blog is posted.
Blessings and see you soon!

Bible verse of this week: 2 Timothy 2: 11-15
"Here is a trustworthy saying:
If we died with him, we will also live with him;
If we endure, we will also reign with him.
If we disown him, he will also disown us;
If we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself.
Keep reminding God’s people of these things. Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen.
Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth."
How I get ready for a great day
I wake up at 5am every day to start my day with Jesus, or at least that is my goal every day (yes, even on the weekends). Often it works (in the power of the Lord
). I love that time because my head is still empty, and my thoughts are not running in all directions like at the end of the day. The world is still asleep, and it seems as if I am alone in the world with Him. Jesus Himself also started His day that way; in prayer and in silence with the Father.
I often start in prayer, read the Bible and put on some beautiful worship. If I have any time left, I do some homework from my Bible college.
I want to encourage you to give it a try, you’ll see it will change your day!
If you can’t get up early right away, or if you, like me in the beginning, just turn off your alarm to continue snoozing, ask a friend to join you. It may take a while to get the hang of it, but persistence wins!
You got this!!
