All things seem possible in May.”

Caroline Walter or Querweltein has hotography as her big hobby – especially the macro worlds are her favourites. In the winter, she thinks about indoor experiments, but in the Summer she goes outside in the morning when the dew drops can tempt her to put in on the square picture. She tries to get to know the world from a completely different and new page and presents her photographs on a photocommunity and on Calvendo next to her own blog.

Beatrice on her Blog shootingvienna loves her home town and hopes that she can share her love for Vienna with more people. We enjoyed watching her site. On July 2014 she placed some selfportait of her on the net > Summer Portraits which you can compare with the 2013 November 3 Photo Challenge – Self-Portrait
With the Spring images on television, each morning we has already a glimpse of it being better weather in Vienna than here in Belgium.
Nice having the opportunity to see Vienna in bloom, whilst the squares are not yet full of tourists, like in Summer and autumn.
The weather in Vienna and especially the temperatures are really nice and warm for April.
The cherry trees and magnolias have been in a lovely bloom already and the leaves of the trees are fresh and light green. Spring is definitely one of my favourite seasons!
The farmers market has more goods to offer and the buzz is back on a Saturday at Naschmarkt. To help me plan on what seasonal goods to cook with, I bought an in-season calendar over amazon (and not just because the pictures are so pretty :)). You can click on the pictures to see them in full-size.
I had a fun photo-shooting at the Japanese garden in Vienna with me as the model. As soon as I get the pictures I will put them up for you to see but it will take some time since the photographer is quite busy and on…

Bonjour à tous, aujourd’hui voici de petites idées simples ou DIY pour le printemps !
La première est toute simple: imprimer une jolie image et la mettre dans un cadre! Je vous est sélectionné quelques images à imprimer.
Pour trouver d’autres photos je vous conseille de taper : “hello spring” “hello spring vintage” “spring” .
Le premier DIY est de petits bocaux trop mignons pour ranger tout ce que vous voulez ! Il vous faux des bocaux en verre (de confiture ou autre) avec couvercle, des petites figurine d’animaux en plastique et de la peinture. Il vous suffit de coller la petite figurine sur le couvercle de votre bocal et de le bomber (je vous conseille de ne pas peindre la partie transparente du bocal). Je trouve ça vraiment hyper sympa et ce n’est pas cher à faire…

Allah = le plus beau des créateurs a dit :
Allah said:
[ Sourate 57, Ayah 20 ]
Al-Ḥadīd – 57 : 20 Know that the life of this world is only a frolic and mummery, an ornamentation, boasting and bragging among yourselves, and lust for multiplying wealth and children. It is like rain so pleasing to the cultivator for his vegetation which sprouts and swells, and then begins to wither, and you see it turn to yellow and reduced to chaff. There is severe punishment in the Hereafter, but also forgiveness from God, and acceptance. As for the life of this world, it is no more than merchandise of vanity.
[Sourate 18, Ayat 45 – 46]
Al-Kahf – 18 : 45 Present to them the example of the life of this world so like the water We send down from the skies that mingles with the earth to nourish its vegetation, which then on the morrow turns to stubble and is blown away by the wind. God has power over everything.
Al-Kahf – 18 : 46 Wealth and children are only the gloss of this world, but good deeds that abide are better with your Lord for recompense, and better for expectation.
[Sourate 57 Ayah 21]
Al-Ḥadīd – 57 : 21 Hasten for the forgiveness of your Lord and Paradise whose expanse is as wide as that of the heavens and the earth, which has been prepared for those who believe in God and His apostles. This is the bounty of God which He bestows on whosoever He please; and the bounty of God is infinite.

Au cœur d’une forêt de pins se trouve « Small Town »1, la vie où je vis. Nichée au Sud des Etats-Unis, Small Town est une ville universitaire à caractère historique. Nous sommes très loin des gratte-ciels de New York, Houston, ou Chicago. Pourtant, cette ville ne cesse de m’émerveiller au fil du temps. Cette année, l’hiver a plié bagage plus tôt que prévu, et le printemps s’est vite installé.
Dans mon voisinage, un magnifique spectacle s’offre tous les matins. Il m’arrive de faire des petites balades après l’aurore. La verdure rayonne dans un bain de soleil, tandis que les oiseaux chantent et s’élancent à toute vitesse dans le ciel. On en trouve de toutes les couleurs : marron, rouges et bleus. Non loin de là se trouve aussi un cours d’eau où s’abreuvent des biches et des coyottes dans la nuit.
Ce qui attire le plus mon attention en…

In the south of Europe they seem to have already enough high temperatures to take care more flowers can colour our world. Having the first flower Corso’s and flower parades giving people lots of beauty to enjoy.
Though we also must be careful having also lots of pagan Spring festival showing up, we always have to be careful not to stimulate the wrong sorts of shows and be on the loo out at which flower show or parade’s we want to be seen, and not taking part at processions where heathen symbols are carried or people bow down in front of graven images.

Funchal, Madeira Portugal Spring Flower Festival = amazing parade of decorated floats, dancers and music

Good morning from Funchal, Madeira Portugal! The cruise has been in Funchal for two days to give us time to see the Spring Flower Festival. It is amazing! Yesterday there was a parade of decorated floats, dancers and music. The parade took over an hour to pass through but the decorating with fresh flowers must have taken days. They were all lovely, colourful and happy. I don’t think that I’ve ever seen so many smiley faces in one place.
The crowds were three and four deep for the whole length of the parade. Please excuse my photographs but I couldn’t get an up close space! Many people waited HOURS to secure a spot but I preferred to sit on a wall eating ice cream in the sunshine. There were people climbing up cliff sides, holding onto fences and sat on Dad’s shoulders to get a good view.

Gelooft u het getuigenis van God, zijn Zoon en zijn dienaren? #2 Zonde. Overtreding van Gods wil Omdat God de mens maakte met een vrije wil, en daarmee vrijheid om te kiezen, kunnen wij zowel doen wat Hem behaagt als mishaagt. Dit laatste noemt God zonde. Maar wat is zonde precies en hoe komt deze […]
Het bewijs van Gods bestaan 1. De weg van veel goden naar geen God Een in het kader van ‘Bijbel en Wetenschap’ telkens weer opduikende vraag is: kun je Gods bestaan wetenschappelijk bewijzen? Of heeft de wetenschap juist bewezen dat Hij niet bestaat? Er zijn in principe twee manieren waarop je de beantwoording van zo’n […]

Waar gaat het nu uiteindelijk om in deze discussie over ‘intelligent design’? Enerzijds zijn er bijbelgetrouwe christenen, ervan overtuigd dat God bestaat en de wereld heeft geschapen: voor hen valt daar niet aan te tornen. Anderzijds zijn er wetenschappers, die op grond van onderzoek tot conclusies zijn gekomen waarvan zij terecht menen dat je daar […]
In Handelingen 17 lezen we over Paulus’ ontmoeting met twee filosofische stromingen in Athene: de Epicureïsche en de Stoïcijnse school.

Want het wereldse denken in Paulus’ dagen vertoonde bepaalde overeenkomsten met dat in onze wereld. […]

De mens wil altijd meedoen, erbij horen, als die anderen zijn. Maar God heeft Zich een volk gekozen waarvan Hij verwacht dat zij anders zijn en zich als voorbeeld gedragen.
Maar al te graag maakten de mensen voor zich zelf uit wat zij deden en hoe zij hun bedoelingen konden veruiterlijken. Maar wij moeten beseffen dat het God uitmaakt wat goed genoeg is.

The Bible speaks of God as “Sovereign” and “Sovereign Lord” Him being worthy to receive the glory and the honour and the power, because He created all things. Jehovah’s sovereignty has beauty, excellence and dignity. The psalmist writes: “Righteousness and judgment [or, “justice”] are the established place of your throne; loving-kindness and trueness themselves come in before your face.” (Ps. 89:14)
De Bijbel spreekt over God als “Soevereine” en “Soevereine Heer”, die waardig is om de glorie en de eer en de kracht te ontvangen, omdat Hij alle dingen heeft geschapen. Jehovah’s soevereiniteit heeft schoonheid, uitmuntendheid en waardigheid. De psalmist schrijft: “Gerechtigheid en oordeel [of” gerechtigheid “] zijn de gevestigde plaats van uw troon; liefderijke goedheid en oprechtheid komen voor je gezicht binnen. ”(Ps. 89:14)

The Hebrew phrase tikkun olam (pronounced tee-KOON oh-LUHM) means “world repair.” In modern Jewish circles, tikkun olam has become synonymous with the notion of social action and the pursuit of social justice.
Created in the image of God each human being is requested to come close to the Bo’re and to be a partaker of a marvellous peaceful world to which each member has to contribute out of free will. In order for the balance between good and evil intended by God to be restored, humans must be involved in the world’s reparation and can not keep aside or aloof or ‘do nothing’ to get social justice or a better world.

From the Hebrew Scriptures, including the Talmud we can learn that the Chosen People or Israel is eternal, so the bond with them is irreversible, unbreakable and eternal, once a Jew always a Jew. As a Jew following the Jewish rebbe Jeshua should not mean that one has to give up the Jewishness, even better being a follower of the sent one of God one can become even closer to God.
Men kan iets denken en iets uitspreken wat verwezenlijkt wordt door wat men noemt “het Woord” of “Logos”. Naast dat Woord of Logos (het spreken of uitspraak) is er ook het Rhéma of wat wordt gesproken, een uiting in een toespraak of geschrift (= vorm van het gesprokene).
In de christelijke eschatologie, erkend men een antichrist of de anti-christ, als iemand die de bijbelse profetieën vervult over iemand die zich tegen Christus verzet of zal verzetten of zelfs zo ver gaat om zichzelf in de plaats van Christus te plaatsen. Best kijken wij naar de term (inclusief een meervoudsvorm) die vijf keer wordt gevonden in het Nieuwe Testament, namelijk uitsluitend in de Eerste en Tweede Brief van Johannes, waar de Antichrist wordt aangekondigd als degene ‘die de Vader en de Zoon ontkent’ .
God has given the world His Word and Guidance for life, but everyone is free to follow it or not. It is not by doing good or doing bad that everything in life shall run like we would like it, or would go good or bad.
We all know that “bad” things happen to “good” people, and no spiritual building can hold by pretending otherwise. It’s simply untrue that every well-lived life leads only to outwardly positive outcomes. It’s equally untrue that difficult circumstances prove that someone strayed from the path.
Het woord “Evangelie” In het Hebreeuws Het woord in het OT is bas-har.

Joden indien zij hun oude Geschriften diepgaand onderzoeken kunnen tot de ontdekking komen wie de lang beloofde Messiach is en kunnen daarbij ook voldoende redenen vinden om die Messias of Christus te volgen en deelgenoten te worden van ‘zijn lichaam’ en alzo als Jood voor Christus door het leven te gaan.
In het Joodse geloof zijn er de apart geplaatste boeken maar ook legendes welke vertellen over de man Abraham welke wij als onze aartsvader aanschouwen, omdat de elohim hem heeft uitverkoren om de vader van velen te zijn.
De Bijbelse naam Abraham betekent ‘verheven vader’. Dit was de Chaldese naam van Abraham. Toen Abram door God werd gekozen om de stamvader te worden van Gods volk, werd hij Abraham genoemd, wat ‘vader van vele volken’ betekent.
Adam mag dan wel de eerste man zijn die de wereld kent, maar voor ons geloof is de nomade wiens naam van Abram naar Abraham verandert is door God veel belangrijker.
In voorgaand en volgend bericht gaan wij dieper op die Bijbelse figuur in.
In ons geloof kijken wij gerust ook naar het begin aller tijden maar betreft ons geloof nemen wij anderen dan Adam en Eva als onze grote voorouders. Hij die voor ons de eer krijgt om onze aartsvader te zijn is Abraham.
Previously we looked at the exclusivity of the Most High Supreme Spirit Being Who is the Singular Jehovah God. In this article we continue to look at Him Who si one (and not two or three) and notice some special features that make This Unique God so special.
Some verses from the Bible to get to know the God of gods Who is an exclusive eternal Supreme Being Who is one (and not two or three) no man can see, and Who has a special or set apart (holy) Name, Jehovah.
An overview of what we should know about the Most High God.
Often a lot of people do not know to differentiate between Christendom, Christianity, religiosity and even limit religiousness to Christians, forgetting that there are many other religious groups who have all sorts of worship.
Christianity is a love affair. Each person calling himself or herself a Christian should live a life of service to God and Jesus, by serving each other, putting the needs of others before our needs, showing to others the love Jesus gave us.
