Here am I - send me

I don't remember when I first started listening to Keith Green's music and sermons, but I think it was during my discipleship training school in 1992. By that time Keith had already been with the Lord for ten years!
I listen to his music when I work, when I clean and when I exercise. His songs inspire me, encourage me and often they remind me of all the areas in which my life lacks total commitment to God.

Today I was listening to a live webcast from the University of the Nations in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, in memory of Keith Green who died 28 years ago today on July 28th at the age of 28. Loren Cunningham spoke and gave his famous sermon on God's calling on everyone's life. As always, I was touched by Loren's words and prayer.

"Here am I - send me". Yes, I want to go Lord, wherever you send me. Yes, I want to do Lord whatever you ask of me. Yes, I want to obey your call, no matter the cost!

It is about time...

For months I have been thinking about starting a blog. There are so many precious moments with my children, my husband and God that I would like to remember forever and what better way than to write them down in a blog for my family, my friends and my children to read.

I was born and raised in Germany so the question that arose was wether this blog should be written in my native language or in English. Since most of my family and friends speak English and since this blog is something that I want my children to be able to read one day, I decided that English was the way to go.

So here is to the beginning of a new adventure as I share about my life and my walk with the Lord!
