Introduction

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death.
(Rev 12:11)

Since I became born again, there have been many situations where I have experienced God working something supernaturally. Here I share stories of these events. I do so, not to say that God will meet you, in your life, in the same way. Rather I hope to inspire you to take a closer look at your everyday life and spot those moments where God has left his fingerprints for you to find. 

May God shine a light into your heart and show you how He is present with you, how He is moving, in your life, as you read these stories.

Near-accident

I was twenty-two and worked at a printing company in Johannesburg, half-an-hour’s drive with the N12 from where I stayed (my parent’s home), in Benoni. I’ve only had my car for a year and could count the times I’ve driven in rain, on one hand. A...

Guard against bitterness

Middle of July, I went to bed feeling fine. I woke with a purple-red right big toe. So sore was my toe I could barely walk.
My husband, Calvin, gave my toe one look and said, “Soak your foot in hot saltwater.” 
I followed his a...

Unfailing Hope

Two weeks ago, half-past five on Monday afternoon, our doorbell chimed. Little did we know the trouble it announced to us. A worker of our local municipality was at the gate with a prepaid electricity meter. We didn’t apply for one but were told...
