Almost nine months ago I wrote my last blog, but I thought it was time to add another today. Today I was welcomed in my new corps. It feels a bit like a rollercoaster. Can I live up to all the expectations? Do I need to? I guess the answer lies in the bible verses I used this morning. 2 Timothy 1: 6-10:
6For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands. 7For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.
8So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me his prisoner. But join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God, 9who has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time, 10but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.
