May 22nd, a day outside the comman.

I woke up with pain in my body, a pain I never ever had before! 😬😦 like some insect had bitten me during the nigth feeling. I went up, got my coffee and walking wasn’t an issue but to sit. OMG. Painful!!

The pain escalated during few hours. I tryed to do normal things but every time I went from walking around to sit in the couch… 😬🥴

Texted my best friend, whom lives in Oslo, about what’s going on. I also send out prayer request to my Christian network.

At 1.30 pm I called the ER to hear what they thought I should do. They told me to get in for a check-up. Left home around 2.30pm.

Here I am now, waiting, after 25 minutes to first get registrated and still can’t I sit… but I am alive. Knowing my Christian network is praying for healing and probably strength.

The only thing I don’t like with today is actually the heat. I am melting away. It’s +19 or +20° C outdoors… some wind though 🙂

Yet, knowing my pain isn’t the worst. The crying kids in the ER is even worse while waiting to see a doctor. Knowing my Lord is with me here at the ER is a good feeling. Can be one reason to stay calm, even though that’s me in a nutshall. And that I can pray for the other people coming and going is pretty cool too 😉.

I do wonder if I will be able to go to work tomorrow? I had to cancel the driving lesson I was suppose to have tomorrow… anoing! Anyway. 5.49 pm I got to see a male doctor. It took maximum 15 minutes.

He wrote a referral to a gynecologist at the hospital 2 min walk away from the emergency room. So I headed out. Tryed to call my friend, whom didn’t pick up but txted me back. Went to find the rigth floor, which always is confusing 🤪😄. Made it to the floor, the waitingroom and sat down. Still quite h7gh level of pain. Took maybe 15 minutes, than I met the 2nd male doctor. This time a male gynecologist, I think you other women agree with me, saying it’s such more comfy to meet a female gynecologist as being a woman?! Anyway, I met him good looking ((😄😄)) male gynecologist approxy 18.15. He needed to confront with a colleage so I had to wait even more….

At 7.30pm I was getting hungry, waited a bit more and during my waiting 2 other women got there looking really bad and sick. I felt really sorry for them and took the waiting time as an opportunty to pray inside of me for them and asking the lord to let them get help before me. Around 8.10pm ish I went down to main floor to get something to eat from the kiosk. Got a warm pannini 😊. Better than nothing after all the waiting.

When I got up to the gynecologist floor again I just sat down for a minute and was called in the 2nd time, and this time with 2 female gynecologist 😊😊. They did theire job and I could walk out of there 8.45 pm without the pain. Got home 9.45 pm, tired in my head, hungry and just wanted a good cup of coffee and cozy with my cat before I went to bed.

Thankful to live in a country with a good health system that not every country has. Thankful for friends I still am close to even if we don’t live near each other. Thankful for life even when it’s painful.

The bummer came the day after with a migraine attac as sudden a every time 😔😦 and lasts between 4h and 12h.

Small taste of my daily life.

Here comes a small taste from this week so far. Today I ‘m home from work with a bad heavy headache caised by the coming weather change 😔😔😔. And the only thing I can do is to knitt 🧶 not to much for my head.

1st picture; today 24th. 2nd; last night Silver was cl7mbing the wardrobe. 3rd & 4th;we walked yesterday after I was dobe working in a good temperature of +10°C. 5th & 6th; Spring signs. 7th; yesterday’s temperature from the morning. 8th; Mo4ning light.

Saturday, March 19th evening walk back from the store.

🥳🇧🇻 Norways National Day 🇧🇻🥳

In Stavanger. I had hoped for a better start of today but hey can’t forse this body. I am haPpy for what I managed. Her are some pictures from my 17th of May;

2022 and no restriction 😍😍 finally for a whole nation.

I had two good hours, from the time leaving my house, in the city and back home on the bus. I got the feeling of 17th of May I needed, which is big in Norway.

Just waiting on the bus and enjoyìng a bench.

On the bus a girl came sat nxt to me. We didn’t know each other at all. Such a cool girl! In her folkdress – bunad. Maybe 9 y.o. Chatting away about what she gonna do later not sky at all 😊 her Mother was a bit forward in the bus. It made my day even more special 😊.

🇧🇻🥳🍾 Happy birthday Norway 🍾🥳🇧🇻

Execise that’s finally works for me. 🤩🤩.

I have been going to the gym off and on as many others. Some years has been better than others.

This las year have I been an inactive member of a gym, was hoping this last August it would be easier to go to the gym after work twice a week. It didn’t 😔.

After months not being able to do much I found this app 🤩.

And it works 🤩🤩🤩

Easy workout exercises. And only 7 minutes 🤩🤩🤩 each time.

I choosed abs beginner & body workout as my two first. Have added with the other two after two day’s, feeling my body needed more.

I have now started to get in to the routines and can feel on my sad back, that if I jump those exercises the back actually get worse. And for that is a success!

So now, it’s a joy to do my exercise again and I know my body gets stronger each day 😊😊.

💪🤩💪🤩💪🤩💪

Wierd atmosphere, speed-interveiw & Gods protection.

I got an interveiw yesterday the 9th in the suburb Ålgård about 30 minutes east of Stavanger. I came 45 minutes early (becauce I hate to be late) sat down outside the School and talked out loud with the Lord what I was thinking there and then.

One thing I knew directly when I sat down, but also on the bus on the way there, was that I don’t want to work in an area where I only see mountains. Which this area /county has a lot of.

As I was talking to the Lord I got a bad feeling inside of me. Like an emptiness. Like a spiritul thing is the closest I can describe it.

Time flew fast and sudden it was time to go inside to the speed-interveiw.

I met one of five of the people that would interveiw me few minutes later, in the hall where the emptyness and wierd feeling appeared again.

And during the interveiw, it felt like a hole of something not good would happend. Super wierd for me. I can’t describe it on any other way.

I answered the questions they had, and told them about who I am and my background. And in one way it felt like I was talking to wall on the other hand I was there with them…. 🤪🤔😬

And the last minutes of this speed-interveiw I got this really not good feeling, like I just wanted to run outside and not be there anymore. Like something bad would happend.

I got out with goose bumps and felt light dizzy in my head.

Catched the bus to Sandnes county where I needed to switch to the train to Stavanger, before catching “my” bus home. And there, in Sandnes, did I start to “feel normal” an hour later… Still talking to the Lord. Asking him to guide my life and let me feel better.

Back home, still talking to the Lord, I got a sentence in my head “it will come something else” and a peace inside took place to not take this job. Yet so so tired in my head, like I had been in a mall or worse with hundreds of people in many hours. But I guess that’s how it feels like when it is something going on in the spritual world.

Any other interveiw I have had before, I feel nervous directly after & until I recive any kind of answer. This was the very opposite! Like the Lord was protecting me. That’s the only way I see it.

Thank you Lord for the talk yesterday & your guidans & protection & the peace! I trust you heavenly Father.

PS. This is as scarry as when I knew I had to trust the Lord for a job & place last year this time.DS.

What a wierd weekend 🤪

It has been so far! It all started with a panic atack after work on Friday (May 6th) trying to get into my online banking 🤪🤪😬🤐😢 which didn’t work.

Than trying to not think about it and asking the Lord for help to not think do much about it to freaking out in small dozes… And trying to prepare myself for an interveiw I’ve got on May 9th… what a bad combination of a weekend!

Went for one walk to checking an ATM if I could buy food, then to the grocery store, basically to fill up my fridge & freezer at home. The other walk was with Silver to actually cleanse my head, but the Northen wind was to chilly to help me 🤪🤪

Yet I am Thankful for life and challenges, maybe not this big so I freak out…

To this morning asking friends of help to pray🙏 for me and my panic. To maybe have found a solution “talking” to a girl friend over messanger. Giving me peace about the whole thing. 🙂

The burdens of the past are going to fall away as all things are being renewed.

So now is the time for dinner, cause I am hungry! And literally need food. But, I will also listen to preaching online for my head & soul.

To read my Daily Verse ” The burdens of the past are going to fall away as all things are being renewed.” God has humor!

Spring time, April – May 22

I start with this collage of pictures from yesterday May 1st 22. From my walk 8.15 pm, for 45 minutes 😊. A walk I needed more than normal, becauce I had a big need of air. Fresh air.

Lots of things has happend since last post 🤪, so I will do my best to remember as much as possible.

After a long not planned break with my House Church, did we finally have a House Church evening 😊. Those pictures are from the Island #bjørnøy , the sunset and the daffodils 😊. (*not planned break becauce most of covid-19.)

The last piece of my Cheesecake, pre-birthday cake.

April 27th was a sunny day with some wind and not to warm.

The day’s between April 13th and April 23rd,did we have a temperature between +13°C & +20°C. Something that doesn’t fit me… I did try my best to enjoy the 🌡 & ☀️.

Cat sitter, Easter Break , and more 22🤩

I have been & am still until tmrw “sitting” a cat from Thursday this Easter. It’s mainly letting the cat in or out of his home, make sure he has enough food and water.

Yesterday, Easter Saturday, I came to let him in and this was the first time he showed me how playful he was. We cuddle and played. 💙🐈💙.

I spend 20 minutes with him instead of 10, like the day before. 💙.

It has for sure been an interesting Easter in many ways! Not just becauce of Simba. No, I have been walking more and you would say walking is good for a sad back, not mine 🤐. My back got worse from the walking 😔🤨, yet I have explored more of the island I live on 🙂. And got massive time with the Lord on my walks.

It’s been an Easter Break where I have started a new sewing project but not have had the back I needed to finish it 😔 Yet I have had good day’s listening to preaching and the bible app 🙂. We have had mostly good Weather 🙂.

And I have to say that, even if the Easter isn’t over yet I have been enjoying this Easter! It has been a blessing so far. Just do whetever I managed to do and not stress 🙂🙂. I have been able to do my back exercise almost every day 🙂🤩🙂. And today has all been about relaxing & some regular cleaning of my home.

April 14th, Easter Break, Easter Thursday-22

What did I do? Let me think… I woke up late, around 10 am, did some exercise for my back and yes arms😊💪, had coffee & breakfast as my start of any day.

Sat in the couch (cause sad back). Wanted to sew so I did.

Carry my sewing machine from where it stand when I don’t use it to the couch table. Got all things I needed for sewing. Started by fixing the pockets in one of my 3 newest par of Jeans. Love the Jeans but isn’t a fan of tiny pockets 😡. Why have pockets at all if you can’t use them? Front pocket!

Continuing with a blouse, “red with white dots”, tryed to upcycling it. Can’t say I am totally pleased yet…

Last I picked up my pitchwork from small fabric pices that I have been sewing together to a pitchwork and my goal is to use it on th inside of my home made smaller backpacker for work. Which also was my goal to finish this Easter… That will not happend cause of my sad back 😔😔.

In the evening I went out cause I am a ” cat sitter ” meaning letting a cat in or out and make sur the cat have enough food and water.

But b4 I could do that I needed to get there, finding the house (I had been there two day’s b4 during day light) in evening light. Started by running to the bus (which only comes every 30 minutes during Holidays), catched it, got off to soon 🤪🤪🤪, walked for 7 minutes, found the house and cat. Let the 🐈 in fed it, gave it new water and I headed out.

And realizing that nxt bus would “show up” 20 min later… So instead of waiting in the chilly wind I walked back home. A 30 min walk and approxy 2,5 km. A nice walk! Picture above shows it all and the lovely sunset!

April 13th, Easter Break -22

As I probably told once before, the grocery store close when all Holy Church Day’s comes. Which would happend also this Easter Thursday. Which ment I had to go to the grocery store on Wednesday.

In the store, I wanted something but not sweets. Oh no, my brain wanted water and grapes. (Picture).

More than going to the grocery store I was a bit creative 😊 but mostly relaxing cause sad back… But ended up having a good Easter Thursday!

April 12th-22, Easter Break.

April 12th I had good 4 hours down town 😊. I had an apointment to check my eyes, and than I ended up walking around, got a Caffe latte and talking to my Seattle friend who live in Oslo 😊. Shopping only things I needed 😊. And enjoying life.

The fact my foot wasn’t painful while walking was really nice. 😊

Sunday April 10th-22, Easter Break.

While listening to preaching on both Spotify and YouTube I was creative and thinking through my newest sewing project: a smaller backpacker for work.

I wrote about this in an other post, which I haven’t post yet. But I got an idea at work this last Friday, April 8th, on a cool redesign/upcycling backpacker. Which I yesterday found all type of fabric for. Hoping I can start on it today or tmrw. 🙂

Hope you all had a great SUNDAY!

The Lord is using my creativity in so many ways, it’s just fun to be a part of whatever He is doing. 🙃🙂.

Would you let Him do that with you?

April 7th, 22, ❄🌨🌧☁️☀️…😂

My week before Easter Break is here and this is some of the things I’ve done so far. I am sew embroidery on my favorite sweater on top of stains I’ve tryed to get rid of for many tears without luck. So some upcycling and updating was needed here. Becauce I love this sweater.

I bought me my first ice cream for this year becauce of ☀️ after a morning of ❄🤪.

I sprained🤬🤬🤬 my ankel at work and walk on it with so much pain 😔😔😔. Had a good night with no pain 🙂 but after I woke up and had to walk on it the pain came back 🤬🤬🤬 so I’ve used crutches today and will do it tmrw too. Resting in the couch now. Walking as little as possible today.

….If it is slow internet or a bug here at wp today I don’t know, but slow is it….

My Easter break starts this Saturday, April 9th. And my plan is still to catch some busses and train and explore more of Rogaland county. See places I wanted to explore last time but never took the time to do.

I’m broke until Tuesday, which means I have to wait to buy something for Easter decoration & flowers outdoors next week. Which probably is smart with my sprained ankel.

…for me I never know where the Lord wants me

I have also started my job-hunt onece again…

I am looking & applying for a new job, wish to work “in the next level” from high school. The Scandinavian School system; it’s called High school when we translet it, it’s the age of 16-19 y.o. students.

What you call it I don’t know I guess it depence on where in the world you live it has different names names.

A secret project.

I started on a project in November 2021, which I won’t let you know more than this. So why am I writing about it you might ask yourself.

Well the reason is that, it’s not a sewing project, it’s something totally different, take more energy and time after work.

And can be the reason to why I won’t post here as often as I have done until now.

And it might make my head more tired than normal but when the project is totally finished I will let you know both in txt and pictures.

An other thing is that I will start to go to the gym again, hopefully this weekend. 🙂. Even thought I have been doing some exersices at home for the last two months, but missing some of the things I have access to in the gym. And now when my back is okay I’ll go.

I have had a okay rythm to listen to the bible app on the weeldays, slide out of it during the weekend 😔. And after the Winter break I slide a bit to much 😔😔 but I dp what I managed.

On my way home today (Tuesday) I needed music to stay awake on the bus ride 🤪🤪 so I choosed 🎧🎶 Kirk Franklin 🎶🎧.

Sail the ship with me.

While I joined the praymeeting before this evening service, I said to the Lord “I’m here , use me if you want”. And not many minutes after those words I got a picture.

Description of the first part: old ship (the type from 15 or 16 century (and this type of ship we can see in the movies Pirates of Carabbean)).

The picture: an old ship that sails into the sunset and through the night into the sunrise.

The words to the picture: I am the land you are looking for. Step up and into the ship and We will sail together. I will guide your life when you get onboard.

God bless! 🙏 ❤ ✝️

Like a feather ball, you can fly in the sky.

Let me lift you. Let me take your burden. Give me your life just as it is right now. Don’t change anything. I want you.

Let me see you. Let me in to your heart. Let me see you sad or broken. I want your heart. I want you to be 100% honnest to me and give me everything, so I can help you.

I want you to feel light as a feather.

Let me be a part of your life. Let me lift up your feet from the ground. Let me take care of you. Trust me, that I can make you be light without any weight. Without any burden.

I want you to fly like a feather, high in the sky, above the clouds.

Give me your heart.

Give me your hand.

Let us walk together.

These are the words I recived while I was praying & knitting at the pray & worship Thursday evening, March 17.

What to do on a Sunday…

…when the back is sad. Well I have been fried meatballs and chops in the oven while I have spooled bobbin thread for all future sewing projects.

And now when the food is done I’m going to pop up the elastic band in a skirt that has worn too little 😆😆 or I’ve gained weight since I bought it 😆😆. And then I will reuse it in a wool coat after ❤Mom❤.

I do want to go to Church but my back is not in a good shape 😔😔 so I’ll stay home and being creative.

While I’m doing this I’ll be listening to preaching whether it’s on youtube or podcast it remains to be seen 😉. Anyway is it a big chance the Lord gives me something I need.

I have learned the last ten years, that I need to listen to my body first no matter what my head wants and I have peace for that I stay home some Sundays. Even if I both like and enjoy go to Church and trying to find new friends I just have to take it as it comes. 😉. And the Lord will still be with me wherever I am, home or at Church.

I am thankful for this weekend, I’ve managed much more than I thought I would. 😊.

Enjoy your Sunday wherever you are and let the Lord be a part of what you are doing. ✝️💒🙌🙏.

A small update, March 2022.

It is still hard for my brain to understand that everyone of you who are following my blog 1,found it! 2,gets inspired from what I share!

I am so Thankful for you all and that our Lord challenged me to expand!!

Be free to make a comment if it is something you really like or words from the Lord that hit you, here on the blog. It is always nice to hear how the reader thibks of a blog post. 😉

Good timing, Smart-watch, fabric, overlocker = Happines.

Two things.

The first; I ordered a new smart-watch about a month ago, but was send to the wrong adress so after approxy 3,5 – 4 weeks later it came to me 🤩🤩. And I love how precisly it counts my steps 🤩🤩. And the part of it was, the same day as I recived the note from the mailoffice it was delivered, my old smart-watch/fitbit broke in the way it wasn’t possible to wear it anymore.

The second; I have finally threaden🧵🧵 my overlocker 🤩🤩 it just took me 2 months 🤪😆😆. But with help from a YouTube video I nailed it.

Here is some of the tests I did last night (Friday March 11.)

I am now looking forward to use my overlocker the way I have used my sewing machine.

I still need a good sewing chair but I have patience, all thing will be good in the end. At least I have two working machines 🤩🤩.

Overandout. 😉

Sewing, sustainability, Creative brain.

A small break from headache and I have been creative 😊🧵📍📍📍📍📍✂️📍📍📍

This skirt is made out of fourteen par of old jeans. #sustainability #upcycling I’ve got from a friend outside Oslo.

A sewing project that started in January 2021, had a resting break on eight months before new ideas needed to be tryed out.

I am hoping I am on the end now, March 2022. It all is a combination of a good body, a good day and energy 😉.

One of few things to add now is a zipper and a waist… one or two pockets in the front.

And I’m done 🤩. I do know it will take some time, spmething I have lots of. In the mean time I’ll start on something else as always. If I don’t have more than few projects going on my brain works slower. I need few projects parallell with each other its just a fact of trying to just have one, which I didn’t finished until I started on nuber two 😆😆.

Spring sign in Stavanger, Winter break 2022.

After three day’s indoors with a tired body I managed to get out 😊 to the ☀️. A short shopping trip. Sadly not much energy in my body. 😔. Still trying to recover from covid.

I’ll use the rest of the day to sewing. 😊 and enjoying the sunshine through my window.

What is truth and what is trash?

How much trash are we holding on to in our Christian life? What is truth and what is trash? Watching and listening to Evelation Church while I’m home, this Sunday with fever. This preaching hit me!

You know what to do with the thruth you have been given, but we don’t want to hold to the teaching Jesus gave us when it’s hard to hear or when it makes us confront ourselves. He said to the Jews who believed in him ” You are so addicted to the lies you don’t want to hold on to the thruth.”

There’s some stuff God has put in you, and the lies you believe can become a lid on your life. They can become a limitation. How we need to teach ourselfs with a lie detection so we’ll even know it’s happening, becauce it’ll sound so true. Yet all the time, Jesus is saying, ” You will know the thruth, hold to the thruth, and the thruth will set you free.”

John 8:31; He said, ” If you hold on to my teaching, you really are my disciple, and then you will know the thruth, and the thruth will set you free. “

You need to hold it. You need to practice.

It’s kind of hard to hold on to the thruth when you holding on to trash?

How much trash do I have in my life I am holing on to that I didn’t think was trash. When it comes to how the Lord vs the devil speak to us, makes the different of what we keep on life in what we think is the truth. You know the deval has hold on to you long enough when you still holding on to the trash.

I had to listen to this preaching twice, to really get the point and if you need that too, watch Evelation Church, “You Are Not Trash”

We need Jesus to Teach us!

You need to be less needy. Truth. Thruth to power.

The Lord is calling you to freedom. And the devil has held you long enough in a lie. And asermon can’t set you free. Decisions do. To be a disciple.

Trade the trash for the thruth.

Through sickness we get stronger.

Through sickness we get stronger day by day, that’s how we get out of bed and back to work. (And it can be all kinds of sickness, mine not so big/hard.) With me?!

I have just been home’n sick. It all started as a normal cold with sore throat and fever. But this cold was Covid-19 virus. 😔😔. I got the heavy headache on Friday, the only thing that I normally don’t get with a cold. I tested positive on Saturday the 19th.

So what did I get out of those day’s at home? Well I have been knitting, finished projects and watch to many not good movies.

Thought I could go back on Monday but oh no that was the day of setback. Yet Wednesday I and today I have. 😊😊.

I am on my way back 😊.

Yesterday I went through five day’s in my bible for a year, the five day’s I didn’t have energy to anything less go between the bed and the couch.

I also started, no that’s not the right word. I picked up to listen to the pod with Evelation Church and pastor Steven Furtick. Both towards and back from work. Variation is something I need in life. Instead of any of the other non Christian pods.

It doesn’t matter what I do. Variation is needed. One of those variations can help me get stronger in my faith or in a hobby or spending time with friends, new or old. I do know, that with Him I get stronger each day in life with or without sickness.

He is my light, my path, my wisdom, the one I trust in life. No matter what I go through.

My day’s are just flying away becomming weeks. 🤪 . Yet I hope you do get something when I post something new.

I need to clear my head (11pm, night to February 12th). Just had a chat with the Lord about what’s going on in my life and head. The best way.

I’ve been listening to the audio bible for 39 day’s now, proud of myself. And what have I’ve learn? Well mostly that it’s good for me as a Christian, that trust in the Lord make sence and my walk is getting thicker and wider with the Lord doing this.

Wherever things I need or don’t understand, I know the Lord is working it out for me in the end. Nothing is to big or to small for him.

He is my light, my path, my wisdom, the one I trust in life. No matter what I go through.

To clear my head with a chat helps me to not think about it. It’s like putting a box in the shelf after you filled it with whatever you neded to fill it with. And than leave it there until the time is here to take it down and unwrapp it. Cause during the time the box stands in the shelf the Lord is working with what’s inside. That you space from 😊.

February 12th. 2022.

When you know you are home.

The peace and calm feeling to step into Church after months. WOW! The atmosphere! Just to come, be, sing or listen to the worship and the preaching. 💜.

The bridge in one of the worship songs.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
I want everything you are,
I want everything you are.

Knowing you are in the right city and know that the Church you been a part of before. In my case I went here eleven y.a. Yet, I got the same feeling now and my fi4st time in Nowenber when I got into the Church building. 💜.

Today I am thankful that my back is okay. 😊🙏. Months since last time.

(From the preaching) To feel that you are Home also means you know that here are your Christian family, the Lord- ABBA – Father or Dad is here.

Give Him the space, to get the experence to get to know Him. This is also a big oppurtunity to ask him in to your daily life, your workplace or studdylife. Let Him in, into your life through music or podcast’s. Let Him Abba get more space in your life.

No matter how your biological Dad has been the Lord loves you no matter.

The challenge is to come with an open mind and open heart to the Lord our Abba Father.

You might have wound from your childhood, as a teenager, a young aduldt or whereever you were hurt to be able to see how Abba Father are standing there and just loves you.

Maybe we just need to remind our self how much we are loved. That he see’s us and how He can use ypur gifts?

Question; How will you describe God as your Father?

If you want to do something different next year, check out the Bibleschool Acta in Stavanger through https://en.imikirken.no/ and the new program; community builder.

To admit when you mess it up.

10.30pm evening to the 4th of February…. I should probably not type with this head right now, cause I am so tired. And I will go to bed in a bit.

I just have to clear my head a bit.

The last two weeks been full of things I have been thinking of or trying to do next when it comes to education and work after this year. Trying to get to know a guy over several months, working and being creative when life is better than just good.

Messing up some of it, yet the Lord have given me more peace and love than any human could do.

To admit when you mess it up is a strength & a positiv trait.

It feels like what I wrote and shared in the blog the other day, the words I needed while I was waiting on the bus in the morning. About His love for me even in my struggles.

To have enough faith and understand the mess I got myself into in the same time trying to understand the love from the Lord.

Yet I know He will help me through every step in my life.

There I was, while waiting…

Today’s devotional as most other day’s I start as I walk out of my house. Today wasn’t much different than yesterday until I had to stop and wait for the local bus to come.

There I was waiting and the words I needed was read. The words of Gods love no matter what is going on in my life. All my struggles He is a part of them too.

What is impossible in human terms is possible with God.

All my daily worries is also His.

It might be a relationship that seems to have broken down irretrievably, or an issue to do with health, finances or something else where change seems impossible. With God there is always hope, no matter how bad things look. Nothing is impossible with God. (The text is from Matthew 19:16-30.)

This text helped me through the first part of today! It gave me peace over an situation in my life I made bigger than needed. I got hope back. Just knowing the Lord is with me in this mess I made, and He will help me through with His Love to me.

Street art.

Just some cool #streetart from Stavanger, my city. 😉

I needed some air into my brain today after a long day indoors and bad air in the office. A walk in the light rain 😊 and grey sky. I needed to buy some office stuff and desided to walk to the store. A lovely walk! Sadly my shoes aren’t good anymore😭 so back home the couch will be my place for a while!

How to Listen to God…by the devotional.

If we only speak to God and never take time to listen, we make the same mistake.We do all the talking and we don’t actually listen to him. But our relationship with God is meant to be a two-way conversation.

In Proverbs 3:1-10 it says… ‘ My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart, for they will prolong your life many years and bring you peace and prosperity. Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones. Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.’

To write down thoughts that come into my mind that may come from the Spirit of God. In a media-saturated age we have many voices that come to us on TV, radio, the Internet, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, email and text message. We have the voices of family, friends and colleagues. And sometimes we have the voice of Satan tempting us to disbelieve God’s word and to doubt that God has our best interests at heart.

How do you hear the voice of God in the midst of the noise and distractions of life?

I hear my Lord in prayers and worship with other Christian people. That’s also how He share what he wants the other person. To help he/she to understand what the Lord is trying to say wants for that person. Most the times I feel the Lord use me and my gift to reach this other person when he/she has a hard time to understand it is from the Lord, what the he/she has asked for. But can’t hear the Lord for all the noices in the head or in the background in her/his life. Very related to hear the lords voice.

Sometimes the Lord talk to me through pictures, other times through a bible vers. Most comman I hear the Lord talk to me with simple Positive and Encourging Words to reach the other person to recive.

We all need to learn our way how the Lord is talking to each of us.

If I don’t have the oppurtunity to be in worship or praying with other Christian people, I go for a walk to clear my brain to hear better. I rather have a noicy sea or a forest around me to hear the Lords voice than a city. But lately I have also heard his voice through music, pod cast’s. Very few times through a dream. And recived a message from Him.

He’ll use the same ways we use! We just need to be open for it.
