My message this year for Easter, in my mother tongue, Afrikaans.

“Die kruis is nie die einde nie” - Dr. Cronje

“Hulle het Hom nie herken nie,

Die Koning,
met stof op Sy voete
en bloed op Sy rug.

Nie ’n kroon van goud nie,
maar dorings
wat diep in Sy voorkop gedruk is.

Nie ’n troon nie,
maar ’n kruis.

Nie aanbidding nie,
maar geskreeu.

Hulle het Hom geslaan,
gespoeg,
gespot,
en geskree:
“Red jouself.”

Maar Hy het nie gekom
om Homself te red nie.

Hy het gekom
vir ons.

Elke hou van die sweep
het ’n prys gedra.

Elke wond
het genade geskryf.

Elke spyker
het die gewig van ons sonde gedra.

En daardie ruwe hout
was eintlik myne.

Daardie straf
was eintlik myne.

Daardie pyn
was eintlik myne.

Maar Hy,
het in my plek gaan staan.

Die hemel het stil geraak.

Die aarde het gebewe.

En die son
het sy lig teruggetrek.

Want die Seun van God
het gehang
tussen hemel en aarde,
tussen oordeel en genade.

En toe kom daardie woorde:

“Dit is volbring.”

Nie woorde van verloor nie.
Nie woorde van opgee nie.

Maar woorde van oorwinning.

Die skuld is betaal.
Die prys is klaar gedra.
Die deur is oopgemaak.

Want die kruis
was nie die einde nie.

Die graf
was nie die einde nie.

Die klip
was nie die einde nie.

Want liefde
kan nie begrawe bly nie.

En toe Hy Sy asem gee,
het Hy nie net gesterf nie,

Hy het verlos.

Hy het herstel.

Hy het bewys
dat liefde sal bloei
selfs deur hout
en spykers.

En ek sal nooit weer
na die kruis kyk
as net dood nie,

want daar
het genade
my naam geleer.”

“Some seasons don’t feel like growth; they feel like loss, like silence, like everything you built is being stripped away. But God doesn’t remove without purpose. He makes space for what your old self could never carry.” - Dr. Cronjé

There are seasons where life doesn’t feel like progress, it feels like things are being taken.

Plans shift. Doors close. Energy runs low. And you start questioning whether you’re moving forward at all.

But this is the part we often misunderstand.

Before the resurrection, there was surrender. Before victory, there was silence. Before life broke through, something had to be laid down.

Easter isn’t just about celebration; it’s about understanding that God does some of His deepest work in the moments that feel like loss.

So if things feel heavy right now; stay in it.
If it feels quiet; stay faithful in it. If it feels like you’re being stretched; don’t pull back.

Because God is not absent in these moments; He is preparing you for something your current version of yourself wouldn’t be ready to carry yet.

Romans 5:3–4
“Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.”

New Years Resolutions...

It is disheartening to see that the pursuit of progress in young children has become measured by “being active” instead of allowing their brains to rest and process the newly formed neural pathways and information. Rest is THE most crucial and influential factor in learning, whether you are 2 or 50.

We must make mistakes, but we should also remember that mistakes are not easily erased.

It’s been a busy but incredible year of growth. I’ve poured all my time into my other ventures, but now, I finally have space and time for a new series.

Launching this month; both on YouTube and in the monthly e-book "The Art of Falling Apart" -- “Sleep Lost Today, Development Lost Tomorrow.”

In this series we’ll tackle Sleep, Brain Development and Sleep, Stimulation, Emotion Knowledge, Emotional Awareness and Literacy, Emotional Responsiveness and Receptivity, Emotion–Cognition Integration, and Social–Emotional Competenceand - concepts that so many get wrong and misunderstand.

"A child without rest, becomes a mind under stress." - Dr Cronjé.
