Persoonlijke geloofsreflecties en getuigenissen van Mimi Bosman: over gezin, genade en het alledaagse leven met Jezus. Deze verhalen zijn geloofsreflecties, duidelijk gescheiden van de feitelijke nieuwsberichtgeving van GOD News.
Elijah’s story is full of fire, courage, miracles, exhaustion, quiet restoration, and the gentle care of God. He was a man with a nature like ours — and through his very human life we see an extraordinary God who answers, nourishes, restores, speaks, preserves, and ultimately poi
A garden can be open and welcoming while still having a little gate. A reflection on generosity, wisdom, and faithfully tending the beautiful things God has entrusted to our care.
How do you make time for self-care? I Don’t I don’t really make time for self-care — at least, not in the way we so often hear about it. I don’t feel the need to escape from my everyday life to find “me time,” because so much of my everyday life is exactly where I…
What’s a place you visited that felt like home? The Netherlands is my home. It is the place where I feel safe, where I have lived for most of my life and where my life has put down its deepest roots. But home is not really made by a country, a house or a familiar…
Beautiful words can inspire us, comfort us, and make us stop and think—but they are at their very best when they lead us back to the unchanging truth of God’s Word. In this reflection, we look at the difference between words that move the heart and the One Foundation strong enoug
An ordinary day of laundry, family, little feet, shared meals, butterflies and a walk through God’s beautiful creation became a gentle reminder: every moment is a gift, and every gift points us back to the Giver.
Sometimes, the person who should have been there simply isn’t. But God is still present in the empty places. And in His mercy, He often sends someone who chooses to stay, to love, to care, and to stand in the gap. The story is not finished.
A quiet morning in Mark 1 led me to wonder: what made people leave Jerusalem and Judea to hear a man dressed in camel hair preaching in the wilderness? John was never the attraction—he was the messenger. His life pointed away from himself and toward Christ. And perhaps that leave
God has always used the unlikely, the ordinary, and even the reluctant. John wore camel’s hair. Jesus came without worldly splendour. Jonah ran from his calling. Yet through each story we discover the same beautiful truth: the power was never in the messenger. It was always in th
What’s the best and worst airport you’ve been to? Singapore Changi Airport is definitely one of the best airports I’ve ever visited—beautiful, clean, and very well organised. My worst airport experience was in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. However, that was back in 1999, so I sincerely hop
Some songs do more than fill a room — they open Scripture in our hearts. Fighting For Us reminds me that whether I am walking through the valley, standing in the fire, or facing a battle, Jesus is with me and He has already overcome. The struggle may be real, but so is His presen
“Not my will, but Yours” is not only a prayer of surrender when our plans differ from God’s. Sometimes it means surrendering what we desperately want to fix. From Adam and Eve, to Pharaoh, to Saul, Scripture shows us the consequences of human will—but in Gethsemane, Jesus shows u
A deeply personal testimony of a moment I have never forgotten — an encounter that left me wondering about the unseen ways God watches over us, protects us, and reminds us that we are never beyond His sight.
When “I” Sits on the Throne Pharaoh, Pride, and the Cost of Getting My Own Way Last week I, we were laughing about frogs. Thousands upon thousands of frogs. Frogs in the houses.Frogs in the bedrooms.Frogs in the ovens.Frogs everywhere. And then Moses asked Pharaoh when he wanted
Angels are much more than the sweet little winged figures children often see in artwork. The Bible reveals real and mighty servants of God—worshippers, messengers and heavenly beings who listen to His voice and carry out His commands. This child-friendly Bible study explores what
When children encounter demons, spiritual powers, or “demon hunters” through films, games, and stories, how do we explain these things without frightening them? This gentle biblical guide helps parents teach children what Scripture says, how to recognise the difference between en
What Is a Demon? When Entertainment Introduces Our Children to Spiritual Things For ages 5-7 Sometimes a subject enters our children’s world before we ever intended to introduce it. A film.A series.A game.A character everyone at school seems to know. And suddenly a child is askin
Egypt was overrun with frogs. They were in the houses, the beds, the ovens and the kneading bowls. Then Moses gave Pharaoh the opportunity to choose when they should go. Pharaoh answered, “Tomorrow.” Tomorrow?! 🐸🤣 It is easy to laugh at Pharaoh—until his strange answer turns the
Two familiar verses led to a much deeper question: Is the Christian life about God establishing my plans—or about surrendering them to Him? A journey through Scripture about contentment, strength, truth, authority, and discovering the ri
Justification. Sanctification. Glorification. Three remarkable words that reveal the beautiful journey of God’s saving grace—from being declared righteous through Christ, to being transformed by His Spirit, to the day when His work in us will be complete. He begins the work, He c
Shalom is far more than the absence of conflict. It is the wholeness, well-being and restored relationship that come from God Himself. From His covenant promise to Abram to Jesus, our Prince of Peace, discover the beautiful depth of Jehovah Shalom—the God whose presence brings pe
“Like Worship Spilling Over the Edge of the Page”: Sometimes peace is quiet, but joy is colourful. In this little reflection, I discovered that my words may whisper while my colours sing—and that perhaps our gifts, when offered back to God, become like worship spilling over the e
On a quiet summer morning, after the last hugs were shared and the cars disappeared down the road, the silence felt almost overwhelming. Yet as birds began to sing, a water lily opened to the morning light, and the stream shimmered in the sunshine, I was gently reminded of a beau
Sometimes a thought begins with one small question… and then Scripture opens something much deeper. ❤️ While thinking about the father of the prodigal son, I began thinking about another Father. One father waited for his son, not knowing where he was or what he was going through.
Torah, Mitzvah, and Pancakes What “Commandment” Really Means How God’s Instructions Are More Like Mimi’s Kitchen Than a Courtroom My grandson Philon recently turned eleven. He’s a master Lego builder, a VR hero, a PlayStation champion, and—my favourite of all—my pancake-flipping
When a Baby said “mama” I recently watched a video of two men with a baby. I don’t actually know whether the little one was adopted or whether there were other circumstances, so I won’t pretend I do. I can only respond to what I saw. One of the fathers was encouraging the little
God’s Infinite Wisdom The More I Learn, the Less I Know There are people in this world whose intelligence amazes me. There are mathematicians who can solve equations that seem impossible to ordinary people. There are scientists who dedicate their lives to unlocking the mysteries
God spoke and created GOD SPOKE AND CREATED “By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God.” — Hebrews 11:3 God Spoke, and It Was Many people have asked the question, “Which came first, the apple tree or the seed?” It is similar to the well-known question,

Renew our strength Lord Jesus I love you every day. And I’m so sorry that although I really do, I don’t spend as much time with you as you would like me to. Sorry, Lord, that I’m always busy with one thing or the other. Please forgive me and help me, by your Grace to…

Wonderfully made People naturally compare themselves to others. Have you ever caught yourself doing it? “Oh, she looks just like so-and-so.”“His behaviour is exactly like his father’s.”“Look at her hair.”“He’s too tall.”“She’s too short.” Or perhaps we’ve compared jobs, houses, c
Lady Eila – Rose, my cousin who lives in Johannesburg South Africa is sharing her testimony with you, she is a God fearing woman with an amazing voice with which she praises God as a worship leader and in her personal life, God fearing is what’s she takes seriously, she and her h
My precious testimony of God’s faithfulness, But He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) a
Grace: The Gift We Could Never Earn “For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through faith. And this salvation is not of yourselves, of your own doing; it came not through your own striv
.Faith in the Middle of the Storm Faith in the Middle of the Storm “And He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Peace! Be still! And the wind ceased, and there was immediately a great calm.” — Mark 4:39 (AMPC) It was a dark, cold winter day. Nothing about the weather…
Tel Aviv Our arrival at the Ben Gurion airport. We had left home at 2:30am to arrive at 3:00am, I was so tired cause we only slept for like 3 hours and I was so excited. Our flight would only take 4 hours and so we left at 6 o’clock and arrived at 10am. We…
Why Jesus & Mimi? “You and your Jesus…” I can still hear her saying those words. “You and your Jesus are like this…” 🤞🏼 That simple remark eventually became the inspiration behind Jesus & Mimi. Years ago, we were celebrating at my niece’s baby shower. We were gathered in the gard
