Interesting greeting, panic, all my thoughts?,where is my faith? doubting, grace…

It’s interesting how the Lord works! Ten years ago before I moved back to Oslo area the Lord gave me some hints about why I needed to move to Oslo area. What I needed to wait for, when living there, before being able to move back to the west coast.

Sunday April 18th, I went through some online preaching I haven’t listen to just “added” to my list to “some day I will start to listen to them”. And in one of the podcast’s they had questions in the end. One of the question where “what are you waiting on?” And I thought, this is perfect to this blog! What are you waiting on,haven’t the Lord answered your question or is it something else you waiting on? You who following my blog.

Two of my closest girl friends needed to get married and become pregnet or even have a child before I could move. An interesting sentence from the Lord to recive. What about me? Should I wait even longer before I met “my hubby”???

An other thing was that the Lord needed to work within me and with me. Which He has. As one of the things ” a hubby “. When I was 19 y.o. I told everyone who asked me about life that I didn’t wanna have my own kids, which probably was a bit wierd to most people,sadly most of them were Christians. ” it will past ” they said. Like it was a cold or something… 😔. But I haven’t ever had a feeling of “need to become pregnet” becauce I would rather have fosterkids or helping families who needs it with their kids when the time comrs for that. I just wanted ” a hubby “.

It was a new journey a head of me. And I have to say a lot of things has happend with me, my faith and my friends those years.

We are all waiting on something.

A short story from those last ten years…

In 2011 I had to find something to do…

In 2012 I took an other course becauce I could not go back and work in kindergarten after November 2010, when I injured my back.

2013 I had a knee surgery and eleven months of physiotherapy. I had to learn to walk again.

In 2014, still no work, still a bad back. New longer course. But it didn’t leed to a job…

2015 – 2017, different types of administration and Hotel. BUT in 2015 I asked the Lord about moving and the thing I recived was “wait”. And in 2017 one of my closest friends got married. Was this an other sign?

2018 the year of many changes! My first job I kind of liked for 5 months. In May I started the fifth course (during those last seven years) which actually was of interest!! May 18th, the other close friend got married 😍😍. Now I knew time would not be to far away for ” the move back to the west coast ” In August I got my foot in to my first propper work in years 😊🤩😊. The first school job, was this the job I had “been looking for all those years of waiting ?” It was a open door from the Lord. But it wasn’t ” the job “. I also knew other things needed to get in place…

2019 came, I got a new job, where I am now. And I know the Lord wanted me here.

In 2020 came Corona and my contract was extended until 2021. 🤩. I moved from Oslo community to Bærum community. A start on getting out of Oslo, the City I never liked but stayed there becauce the Lord wanted to use me there. In March I started as a janitor beside my orginal job. The first girl friend got pregnet (YAY the move getting even more closer).

This last fall (Autumn-20) I knew that I wouldn’t stay in Bærum community longer then next summer (which is now). I also recived a new sentence.

Those two girl friends are now married 🤩. And I have been applying for jobs in Rogaland community since february 🤪 still no job. And now have I started to get panic!! Where will I move? Where will I work?? Gaaaa! The whole point of all this becauce I want and need to work more than 70%. I have so much panic and start to think “was I so wrong understanding the greetings?” Was it just me, who wants to move back to the only place I ever felt like home in Norway? am I moving back to Rogaland community? Or not?

I need to move out where I am living now July 31st!! It’s not to late to get a job theoreticly but I am starting to doubt on the whole thing…😔 the panic is getting bigger. God give me one interview with a job-offer!! Or give me a hint on what I am doing wrong!!

I don’t know what to do more than apply.

But, is the Lord on my side in this?? I’m panicking and have started to doubt. I just want to cry!! is the Lord guiding me steps? I have been trusting the Lord so far but now?

I am missing to have a propper housechurch and meet & pray with, if not in person at least online. I have this last year lost some part of my faith becauce of where I live and the Corona. 😔😔😔. I miss the Church IMI in Stavanger, Rogaland. It feels like I have lost myself a bit to… I don’t know where to go, look, do…

On the other hand has GOD used me and blessed me a lot this last year…

The heat hit Norway…May 28th-21.

The heat hit Norway Friday May 28th. From +12°C and rain one day to +27°C the next….🥵☀️ for me and my cat. The Summer came just like that.

Tuesday May 25th to the left & raindrops to the rigth.

This change makes me nuts. I would love to be able to enjoy the weather, the sun, the heat, to be able to live. But I don’t. Never have. God didn’t make me that way. 😥. I managed +20 to +25°C above that I’m done. No energy over to most nothing. I melt away. Need to cool down many times a day and have been like this since I was a kid. My Mom only aloud me sa a child to be in the sun for ten minutes per day. Not much fun for me. But if I was in the sun more I got sick. I got fever, felt overcooked, dizzy and nauseous. It’s a bit better nowdays in the sence that I only feel overcooked. 🥵🥵.

I saw an documentary two years ago about ” my situation ” it is actually a diagnose but very few doctors who knows enough about it and it’s hard to get the rigth diagnose. 😔. The treat is a cold vest and cold inserts for a cap.

Where am I going with this? Well I am thankful for the fact I have learn to survive even if I rather would choose a colder place when this heat comes. I am thankful that the Lord made me to whom I am.

Today we had +27°C in the shadow 🥵🥵🥵🥵 and rigth now indoors we have +28°C 🥵🥵🥵. If I only was alone, but I’m not. My cat boy has to be indoors when I am at work in those +28° or more 😥… We have 5 table fans on and 2 tower fans to survive! And we live in a wooden house, it dosen’t help at all.

Silver boy. Indoor cat who loves a walk.

So a walk and lay in the grass is much better!

When things turns around 🤩

After my post yesterday I talked to the Lord. Talked out loud my feelings & thoughts. Than I slept on it. Woke up with a good mood & turned the negative thoughts around. 😉🙂

The peace started to grow inside me during the day.

And right now am I smiling behinde my facemask 🙂 😷 and is so motivated to get home and write applications. 😊😊🤩🤩😊😊

I am thankful for the profetic words I have got those last three day’s!! I’ll share them in the end. 😉

The Lord knows what He is doing! And comes with comfort & strength just when we need it!

Amazing how a small thing like what I did gave me so much. 😊😊

Sometimes it’s just a reflection that is needed.

I am so motivated right now. And with worship in my ears and not any of my podcast’s I normally listen to. Gives me even more. 😊💜.

And this weekend is it #pentecost something I haven’t celebrated in years. I will try something new in the between of the applications & cutting the lawn & helping friends to pack down theire home. I will listen to healthy podcast’s & worship.

Thank you who prayed for me! 🙏.

Please continue your prayers for the job the Lord want for me in August.

Here’s the Daily Prophetic Word for May 19, 2021 ; Worship, music and joy will change the spiritual atmosphere.

Here’s the Daily Prophetic Word for May 20, 2021! ; Don’t focus on what is going on around you.

Here’s the Daily Prophetic Word for May 21, 2021 ; God is opening new doors of opportunity.

How to overcome the feelings of discouragement & which way should I go?

Frustration and stress isn’t what I need or want in this season! Yet it’s here. 😔. I struggle to find jobs, struggle to understand where the Lord want me. I struggle to see the path. The path from the Lord. What about the dream I had? What about the peace I had?

To recive a ” we choose an other person for this job ” an then stand in this, keep applying to the few jobs out there… keep praying for a new job, an interview, to understand this… is hard! I am stubborn so I will keep applying until I get a new job, it isn’t that. The issue is it isn’t so many jobs out there I can apply for.

I struggle with frustration of not understand where the Lord want me in August I don’t want to complain I just need help in prayers.

Is it me, was I wrong thinking ” this year means a big move? ” or will I actually move but maybe not to the area, county I miss and feels like home? And what about the feeling of “do not apply here xx “? How to continue applyinfor the few job that are out there? How to overcome the feelings of discouragement and which way should I go?

Today’s bible verse was a good greeting for me! Here is the verse: ” Don’t focus on what is going on around you. “ Easy? No.

This picture is the closest to decribe how my view feels. Blurry!

How to walk with a blurry view?

How to continue in a blurry view? And see through it…

I would like to know where I am going before the Summer Holiday start in the second week of July. So I can find a new place to rent and move. I have said it out loud to the Lord. And I know He will answers my prayers, but right now I struggle to believe this. And it’s a pain in my faith and mind. 🥴😥.

Please, stand with me in my prayers of this. And if you recive a greeting from the Lord, don’t hesitate to send me the greeting. 😉

A greeting of May 17th.

In my head is it more than 2 weeks since last blog, but I see it isn’t 😆. It feels like it has happend quite a lot, maybe it hasn’t… maybe it’s just at work.

🇧🇻 🇧🇻 🇧🇻 🇧🇻 🇧🇻🇧🇻 🇧🇻 🇧🇻 🇧🇻 🇧🇻

This weekend is planing of the Indepence Day of Norway also called the national day by the people, May 17th. And this is my greeting to you.

I am hosting few friends (I am aloud to invite 5 of my closest friends, those I see now and than) and we are praying for the weather ‘stay before rain’.

It’s been pooring rain all day 😆.

😄 😅 🌤 🤩 🌧 😬 😆 💜

My resignation and janitor termination.

Today it happens, April 30, I submit my resignation from being a janitor and termination of janitor residence. I have three month to get a new job, new home, finish this job and move.

100% walk in trusting the Lord for the challenge for next season in life.

100% walk in trust isn’t easy! It self is a challenge!! But I can’t say no when he challenges me. I am not built that way.

And, this is the way He, the Lord, has built my Faith within Him. So,do it 100% or not. And when ” not ” isn’t for me… Yes you know the answer. 😉.

I have so far only applyed to jobs I really want and can be challenge in. And so far not more than seven applications are out….do hope for 1, more jobs to apply for or 2, that one of those seven employers will call me and tell me they want me for an interview.

April Challenge

Or do you want to stand on the same place becauce it bruings comfort? That’s how I felt when I asked the Lord about this journey.

Yesterday (April 13) I had a chat with God, said that I haven’t found a job of interest in Trøndelag county only in Rogaland county. Therefore, I focus on continuing apply for a job there. & that God will show me what job it will be.

Tonight (nigth between April 13 & 14) I dreamed that I had 2 interviews on Teams or Zoom. 😉
& I have peace. 😊.
So it seems like it becomes Rogaland 😉 on me.

No matter if I have confedence or not in this He will be there with me!

He will help me.

He is my compass, GPS, life.

It is both scary and like an adventure. 🤪😍

I want to be able to live closer ti the sea on the west coast of Norway. 😍.

I just have this smile in my face and the peace og this is the next step.

I don’t have a clue of the future but I am trusting my peace I have. I have made up my mind. Focusing on one area geografic is enough. I just now He helps me hold on to the road or path that will lead my steps to the job that is ment for me. 😊.

He, the Lord will guide my steps and open up the right door. It’s hard some day’s to stay on track. But He guides me in all areas in my life.

I have to trust for both a new home will show up where my cat also can live, will be cheap enough for this year and the years a head and the right new job.

I am moving back to the county, the only place in Norway, I felt at home. The area I have been missing for the last ten years… The area I have told friends I want back to “one day”. That day is getting closer 🤩🤩🤩 every day 😍😍 ✝️.

A new opportunity, a new chance.

And this weekend (23rd – 25th) I have written two applications and need to write a third (!)🤪🤪.

This is my new life at the moment. Hectic but I choose it. On top of this, I was substitute for two teachers this last week at work on top of my regular hours 🤪🤪 but fun!!

Creative and efficion Easter.

For you who don’t following me on Instagram only here.

As you know I am creative. This Easter I had a goal, to finish some of my sewing projects. Which I now have. 😊😊😊.

The red blouse with dots after a friend.

Before, during and finished. Here I sewed the buttuns in to the blouse and reused fabric from an other blouse to make it longer. 😉

The black skirt after my mom.

Before, during and finished. From fitting my mom on 5″10 to me on 6″2. Here I had to shorten the skirt into the length just above my knees.

The navy summer dress with pattern.

Before in full length, during and finished to fit my lenght. Approxy 85cm in the back and 65cm in the front.

The second summer dress after my mom. The dress I remember her in, when I was a teenager.

Two or three sewing projects to spend time on, but those can take time. Or I need time on them before I know how I want them to end 😉.

What make you smile?

What or whom make you smile so much you just can’t stop?

BiRthDaY? Love? Work? Baking? The guy/girl? Cake? Spring? Skiing? Beach? Childhood? Summer? Friendship? Books? Drive? Drums? Songs? Worships? Flowers? Pets? Family? The sky? Being creative?

I am curious on what makes you Smile! Please tell me.

For me it can be a nice message in social media ora phonecall from a friend I haven’t talked to for a while. It can be to be creative or the buds in the trees. It can be at work, my cat, a seson. I smiles quite often just becauce I have things that makes me HaPPy.

Just look at those selfies, I smile. Becauce my life is good no matter weather.

I am so Thankful for my life. What the Lord is giving me no matter if it’s a challenge or just a regular day.

I really want to know what makes you Smile!!!

Happy Easter to all of You!!!

Quite the same life Easter or not. 😉

Easter is here again. What’s different? Not much. Still Corona, same weather today as it was the same date last year. ☁️⛅ windy7m/s, 🌡+11°C .

I’ve just been out for a very short walk with Silver 🐈 who didn’t like the wind either.

It’s Good Friday today and I guess most Christian go to Church normally and in this Corona pandemic you maybe go for a walk with the preaching in your ears or if you live where you can get together in a home do that. 🙂😉.

This Wednesday me and a girl friend went on a day trip to a place called Horten, it’s approxy 1,5 hour drive South from Høvik, Bærum. Coast town. Pretty small-town in Norway!

We were not lucky with the weather. It started to rain on out way in to the town but it didn’t matter us. We just wanted to do something 😉 . So we did.

Yesterday April 1st, I had a day in. Started on my mom’s Summer dress. Redesign. Mom was as highest 5″10 and I am 6″2, so you migth understand that the clothes I got after my mom they become too short or wrong proportions on me… 😆😆.

From uncut to the style I want and fits my long legs and shape.

How would you say you did Easter before the Corona pandemic?

I have to say that I don’t have had to change much. I am still singel, with friends who are married and don’t have the same time to spend with me. Before and in the pandemic. Sad yes. Biologic family still most of them in Sweden, Norwegian family still in Norway, but as I wrote, most of them with less time. Why? Well that’s life.

I live my life quite the same as before the Corona pandemic. And it’s fine!😉

Being creative when I have the body & energy 😊.

I have to say life is good even in this pandemic!! 😊😊😊 I have what I need. I am blessed with much.

I wish you all have and will have A Great Easter wherever you are in the World.

💛🐣✝️Happy Easter ✝️🐣💛

After a cup of coffee.

This morning after a cup of coffee I said to the Lord ” I have peace for Trøndelag and Rogaland ” (counties in Norway). Are these the two counties I will apply for jobs in??? Then I need a concrete answer and stronger peace over this.

To ask out loud helps me to, one clear my mind, two knowing He has heard my question.

So I think I will be focus on those two counties when I looking for a new job now. 😊.

To have focus. To relax. To clear my mind.

I will know quite soon if it’s right or wrong.

I would never apply for a new job without asking the Lord or without putting it into his hands. If I don’t let Him be a part of my new season how will He be able to guide me?

To have Faith in a crazy situation is something I have been through before and now it doesn’t feel so crazy anymore. I have been through this more than once and it only led to good things, a blessed periode and positive surprices. 😊 ✝️ .

To be comfort in your own decision and the peace from above. Is the key for me and I hope you will find it too.

✝️

Open up the Channel.

Open up the Channel to God. Don’t hassitate to do it some day’s or some hours. The Lord doesn’t work that way. Here I am, was eating while God started this post with me and He gave me those words.

Maybe this post will be even more relevante now a year after the big lockdown in many countries around the world. Then when the Lord gave me inspiration in January this year.

To encourage you, to open up the Channel doesn’t happend when you want but when the Lord has something he wants to get out there among all of you. This encouragement happends to you who need a push in the right direction, to you who need to be encourage, who maybe need more of Him or just you are in a situation where you don’t know or understand how to hear His voice.

Maybe extra unencourage with all those mutations we do have around us in March 2021.

In today’s society is it easy to think “I’ll do it later”. And sadly this is also many who do when it comes to God too. But to put God on hold isn’t very good. He will still be there no matter if you “shut him off” or stayed “tuned” with him.

So, where are you?

Do you listen?

Maybe HE wanted you to be connected when you took the break.

Do you know which wave you are on to reach the frequency God is on?

Did you close the door? Have you turned off the radio or closing the bible and maybe even stopped to pray?

The Lord is waiting on you to open up your channel, get on your frequency and be “on air” with Him.

I have to say I still struggle with the reading but my channel is open to the Lord. I talk to the Lord every day. I pray and give thanks in the evening. I catch up with other Christians when it’s possible. I listen to worships and podcast’s both home and on my way to work. And becauce of this, I can feel how He is guiding me step by step towards what he wants. To be open for what He wants.

Like the fog can be thick, is my faith strong.

… if it’s time or just life I don’t know, but something has hit me. (Not so hard thankfully.)

It’s like the fog on the picture above, it’s something beautiful and scarry in the same time.

I have, since I moved back to Oslo area ten years ago (2011) this month, been missing the West coast of Norway.

I moved to Stavanger in september 2010, after the Lord open up a job in a kindergarten. I felt how the Lord was talking to me and how He led me. But I did not stay as long as planned…

I lived there for 6,5months. The plan was a year, I thought. The years here on the East side have had the purpose and the Lord has worked within me and with me. And I would not be who I am if I had not moved back!

And the Lord gave me the reason why I needed to moved back to Oslo area, so I did not just move just becauce I did not like the job in Stavanger. Oh no, it was deeper than that.

But now, ten years later things are different again. And once again I have peace from the Lord about moving. Where? Well I do not now. 🤪.

So I apply for the jobs I have enough knowledge for and trusting the Lord in this too. 🙏 ✝️.

Proverbs 9: 7-12 for February 27.

I just want to share this bibleverses with you; Proverbs 9: 7-12.

Anyone who rebukes a mocker will get an insult in return. Anyone who corrects the wicked will get hurt. (9:7)

So don’t bother correcting mockers; they will only hate you. But correct the wise, and they will love you.
(9:8)

Instruct the wise, and they will be even wiser. Teach the righteous, and they will learn even more.
(9:9)

Fear of the Lord is the foundation of wisdom. Knowledge of the Holy One results in good judgment.
(Proverbs 9:10, the vers of today, february 27.)

Wisdom will multiply your days and add years to your life.
(9:11)

If you become wise, you will be the one to benefit. If you scorn wisdom, you will be the one to suffer.
(9:12)

Today’s vers did not speak much to me, so I had to read more. And than it really spoke to me. And I hope it does to you too. Maybe it’s just the fact that my brain has woke up propper yet that this vers did not “kick in” but that’s my issue.

I have been given peace for 2021.

Okay I am gonna try to think about all things that has happend since last blog. And see if I can maybe encourage someone or however this blog ends up as.

And yes, I ended the thing with the guy in november 2020, jumped with faith into an other app of dating-opportunities in mid December. 🤪😂🤩 and with all new Corona measures and rules 🤪.

January came and past too fast. School started, still Corona but now with the two new mutations… from UK and the other from Africa.

Here in Norway we still have had the Schools open for the students up to age 19 more than less. Which means I go to work ever Monday to Friday. I travel by region bus. One of them starts in Oslo, crossing the community border into my community. Which means that it is potensial more Corona bugs traveling my way to work. ☹.

We have had a quite cold Winter with lots of snow negative 19°C, but also 3 day’s of rain and positive degrees ☹ where the snow dicapared some places like where I live. I did managed to make a snow angel just before the rain.

February came with more Winter. Back to negative degrees. 😍. The coldest has been negative 17°C I think.

I have been given peace from the Lord that I will apply for a new job (that’s starts in the autumn), after my principal said that they do not know if they can keep me. As I only have an extended one-year contract. Thank you Lord for peace.

So now I am back in a situation to search for a job, the different part is I have peace about it. Like it’s gonna be a good period of applying. I know and trust the Lord in this. Whatever door He will open for me will be good, and I will be able to get even more experence in this field.

I have also recived peace to not apply for a University.

About my future hubby, I recived peace to not stress ” he, the hubby, will come when it’s time “. 😍. I am so greatful for those things! The Lord is really showing me step by step what is on it’s way. And to fully trust that He knows what is the right thing or time will be worth the waiting on all levels!

I am now typing this in my bed, the night into Wednesday 24th of February, 01am… after a great day with friends. Where I have helped them with some practical things. Including tools 🔨🔧. 😍😍. I am cleaning my brain so it will be easier to sleep. And hoping that someone of all of you who following my blog will be touch by the Lord through my post.

It’s the Winter break and I have had two good day’s of sewing and hoping to finish up my ” 12 par of jeans project ” I started on in mid January.

Happiness and energyboost is the sewing for me.

With love to the all of you. And hoping the Lord will speak to everyone of you often this year.

To much in my head.

I have so much in my head I don’t know where to start… So much has happend since last blog 🤪. I need to sort my thoughts and… but first some sleep.

I mean it’s nearly 02am night to Tuesday February 23rd. So I am gonna post this weard post and try to figure out what to share and maybe it will end up as more than just one this week. I guess we all just have to see.

So se at ” tuned ” and wait on what’s coming og you are curious.

Good night from me.

We must Show LOVE and CARE.

2020 ended with tragedy in Norway, a landslide in a municipality where I have friends. My friends do not live in the resident of the landslide. But 11 people lost their lives. A residential area up on quick clay and the seabed that suddenly just disappeared in a landslide the night before New Year’s Day.

It is a really sad situation. Great work from all emergency services for the first 7 days. Where they found 7 of 11 dead.

This Christmas star will be my symbol on love and care for all those people who live there.

How sad this is. Hard to describe. Hard to put words on. 💔.

I do not live that close that I can help directly but I want to if I can. I am trying to figure out how.

40 people lost their homes and were evacuated to a hotel in the neighboring municipality, where people still live who have not yet found a new house that can become their home. 🥺 💔. The youngest an unborn baby 💔 a boy and his family. They were all 4 sleeping when it happend. 😥.

Lets keep all those people in our heart and prayers. Lets us keep show how we care for them All. Lets stand up and help the way we can.

What I want to say is that when a nearby municipality is hit by a landslide, flood or hurricane. WE MUST SHOW THOSE WHO ARE MISSING that we are there no matter what we can do physically. WE MUST SHOW LOVE AND CARE. We have to line up with what we can. Light candles for the missing or stop taking down the poinsettias.

Lets pray for those people we have around us whereever we live, that are effective from loosing their homes, family or friends in a natural disaster.

🙏 ❤ ✝️

Little by little.

We should live life little by little, step by step so God can be with us to grow in faith. Little by little get a bigger faith and walk with Him.

Little by little will we see all the things God has for us. You and me.

God Restoring us. Little by little God is working with us. If you have experence that 2020 made negative things in life, God will restore your life in 2021! ✝️

I personally will remind myself this year, by repeting those words: “God Restoring Us” & “Little by little”.

Little by little God wants us to grow in faith. Growing graduly. Things in our lifes doesn’t happend over night but little by little.

Those words was my inspiration from a preaching online from the Elevation Church and preaching by pastor Rick Wilkerson jr.

I have to say that I normally don’t watch or listen to American Churches but my Church didn’t stream ” today’s service, Sunday January 3″ so I had to find an other Church and asked friends for good inspiration. And yes I did. I hope you do too.

Lets live life little by little from today and see what God will do in our lifes. 😊✝️.

/Mia-Simone.Svenberg.2021.

Be thankful over what you have.

09am, December 23, 16 hours to Christmas eve.

We should all be thankful over what we have, this Christmas. What ever we have or will be gifted. The Lord is bigger than us and will be providing us with what we need.

If it is to be creative or that someone are creative for us. Have Faith in this pandemic can be harder for us all Yet the Lord is bigger than us and will give us just what we need.

To do it ” my way ” or the Lords way ? Are you still waiting on what the Lord gonna say? Than talk to Him and trust Him and He will answer you.

✝️ ❤

I can’t say how the Lord will or when He will answer you, I can tell you that He will if you trust Him.

Your life might be a mess or you don’t experence the Lord close enough, Yet, He is with you. And maybe feels like those words are just are words without meaning, but, you try to believe them and they might touch you. Maybe you need to read it twice or loud. Yet, the Lord wants to have a bigger space in your life.

Let Him in, in to your life. Let Him in to your Heart. Let Him be a part of You.

He is the Light in our Darkness. He is the creative inspiration to our creativity. He is with US when everything feels even harder. He Wants to Walk with You.

He is Our Light. Our Path.

My experence is that, if I don’t trust Him to Walk with me or that He is the creative inspiration in my life, my life would be boring. If I don’t talk to Him, He will not answering me. If I don’t have Faith in is Power and Love how will I feel any of it? I would not. My life would be boring, sad, I would start to be bitter the opposite of what I want and need in my life.

With those words, not just from me but also as a greeting from the Lord while I was going this, hets through my thoughts inspired me I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

And remember, the words in the picture below.

Through Norway by train to Sweden and back home.

The trip to Sweden through Norway in pictures.

I loved the Winter landscape the train went through. ❤❤❄❄.

The funeral was beautiful. And sad. I am thankful I went. Had a chance to meet people my Mom knew that I have not seen in approxy 15years.

The funeral, December 11th in Orsa, Sweden.

I had time to spend with my family. Maybe most with the “kids” which are two teenagers and one on eleven. But it is still quality time with them. 💜.

I brought some of Mom back home to my place. Some of mom’s clothes. 💜. My way to not just remember her but also let her be a part of my life. Continuing being with me. ❤❤.

This picture symbolizes mom becauce she often sat outdoors and drank her morning-coffee.

So many good memories from mom… drinking coffee together any time of the year. Outdoors or indoors. Building jigsaw puzzle at least 500 pieces, walk, our Summer house, go on our bicycles, cooking food, learn to wash (laundry) clothes when I was 6 or 7 years old, learn to cook as an 8years old kid, pikking berries with the mosquitos 😆, to have good routines and structuer at home, to love and appreciate the nature. ❤mom ❤, you will always be with me!

Back home, I have been and still are in quartine becauce of the trip to Sweden… But I have had Homeoffice, been produtive and efficion at work. And I have been knitting after work. 💜💜🧶🧶.

I am now on day 8 og 10 in quartine. And can not wait until the 22nd and that it is after 3pm…when I finally can go to the stores I need to buy the very last things for Christmas to just like I want it!!!

Been able to finish up with my shelf-project 💜🖌😊.

It has so far been a really good December even if I want the ❄ to come and stay for a month.

In all the sad time I have had been both blessed with enough money for the trip and blessed with good energy. Blessed with good health no Corona in me. And good friends, family and colleages! And Peace. ✝️.

The Lord is both showing me love and giving me hints on what’s good og bad for me. ❤ ✝️.

Love you Mom and will always do. ❤.

My mothers last day in life, has past.

Mom became 80 years old the 17th of November this year. ❤.

On Wednesday the 18th of November I called the head nurse, at mom’s home for the last 6 or 7 years, to check with her what was going on becauce I recived a wierd text message from our dad.

She answered that the function of swallowing food had dissapared. One step closer to not be here on earth with us. A step in the process of the end of demensia. Which was the first day without food and water for mom. 😢.

A sickness she got approxy 13,5 years ago. The same year I moved to Norway…

On Saturday the 21st I phoned mom’s home at 7.30pm and everything was ‘ normal ‘ which doesn’t say much when you as a family member don’t know much of the end of this sickness…

Monday the 23rd was okay. She was breathing normal, she was still piing. Which means some of the organs was still working. 😊.

Tuesday the 24th, mom or her body was starting to show symptoms that the end was getting even closer. Restlessness in the body and coughing efforts were worse. So then she got a syringe against it. And it made her calm. ❤.

Wednesday 25th was okay stable. Not much of a changed. ❤. Dad went to visit her in the afternoon.

Thursday 26th did not start well. 😢. For none of us. My brother T had phoned early in the morning and her breath was changed during the night. 😢😢😢.

Thursday 26 07:42am did I recive the first message. Glad I was awake. Preparing for work and eating breakfast. I became sad and tankful knowing ‘this is the very end’. I went to work and on the bus I called the head nurse to hear what the facts was there and than.

She told me Mom could stop Breathe at lunchtime or later that day. Hard to say. I told her that my brother T was on his way up to Mom. 08.45am ish. I came to work a bit sad inside. Had my classes with the students I normally have on Thursday.

A close friend of mine texted me during class telling me I should call my brother asking him to hold the phone close to mom’s ear and give her my last greeting to her for the last time. And I did, in my lunch break. Glad I did. ❤.

This was when the tears came.

A reviled momemt of tears and love to Mom. A moment of realizing that from now are just waiting, stay in touch with each other. A moment of feeling alone. A moment of where the only thing I wanted was a physical hug from anyone. A moment where I wished I wasn’t singel.

Trying to eat lunch was easier said than done. And I didn’t managed to have the class I was supose to have. Gave the information to the student on what to do and I tryed to pull myself together, stop the tears and preparing me for the last one and a half hour of assistent. Which I managed. And such a boost for me.

On the bus way home I got a message from my brother 4.56pm “shorter breathing”. 😢😢😢. This was next step in the process.

We siblings was online on Messenger between 4pm to 6pm. Following mom’s breathing process to the very end. She stopp her breathing 6pm on the clock. 😭❤.

She is now in Heaven 😊 with no more pain and no more sickness ❤.

And December 11, will we all be in Sweden for the funeral. 🌹. We will be able to say Good Bye in an other way. 🌹. Grieve in our own way. 🌹. Let the tears flow. 🌹. And just be and maybe feel close to her.

I know she is in heaven. She is in a place she has talked about many times.

She was a believer.

She was saved.

One of few favorite flowers Mom had. November cactus.

I started my grieving process around Mom’s 75th Birthday in 2015, knowing she would not become better. And two years later was the last time I talked to her on the phone becauce she did not recognize my voice anymore. 🥺. I have had peace since. Knowing she would end up with the angels in heaven with the Lord. ❤.

It feels wrong to say ” I am find ” but I am. I am not in the first grieving process I am some steps ahead. I will always miss her. But we did not live close for the last 13years… But we had a bond. After the Summer I had turned 16, we had a figth and cleanced the air and got a stronger bond. A bond of love and faith. And we both walked a lot after work and becauce of distance between us, we talked ” to each other ” as the other person was a part of the walk. And I am going to continue that. 😉😊❤.

Stay positive, be Happy and Thankful in this pandemic.

This pandemic…

I don’t know what to think about it. This pandemic is hard and not much to do anything about more than to follow the rules and orders the government gives us with in whatever country we lives. What I can do is to think positive and be happy for everything I get.

Here in Norway we have had this recomand of using facemask on public transport for some weeks and I have used it every workday and every time I needed to catch the bus. How it is outside Norway I don’t really know. 😟. Just what I see on social media or read on the news.

Now, the last two weeks, the virus has “exploded”. It’s like a ticking bomb. 😢😢. I am lucky I still can go to work, meet co-workers and students which not everybody can. That I still haven’t got the virus in me. Still living my life normal. Some schools are closing becauce of the virus. And whenever my school isn’t open anymore we are back in home-scholing just like it was in this Spring. 😟. Nothing I can say I look forward to for many reasons.

But right now I Enjoy the fact that I can sit in the library. Enjoy the noices. Be happy for no reason or one reason. Do nearly whatever I want long as I just remember to waer a facemask 😷. 😊.

The only downside these day’s has for me right now, is the fact that I can’t go to the place I want most of all things. Well I could but I chose to not, becauce I don’t want to be the one spreadig the virus from one are to my area. I do have asthma and therefor I’m really in the risk group and need to remember that… But for the last one and a half month the only thing I want to do is to visit the town where “he” works… meet him and get to know him even more. … it shall not be easy…

✝️I feel Thankful for how the Lord is guideing me in this pandemi. Thankful for how the Lord is providing for me. Thankful for how the Lord is challenges me. And Thankful for how the Lord is blessing my life. ✝️

We have a choise in life.

I have just been listening to a preaching from my Church and wanted to share with you some of the parts I felt was related to us. Questions in the preaching and some of my thoughts.

How can I be a better version of myself in the world I live in today? Like an interveiw and the most comman question ” where will you be in 5 years?”

Are you and I like Epaphras friend who adding Jesus on the top of all other Gods in your life? Are you and I looking for a easy fix in your / my life? (Colossians 3: 5-11)

New clothing. How can you get those new cloths? We can have good things in life, a job, family etc. The only thing is All this is temporary. It is a challenge for us Christian people. What happends if you don’t have all those temporary things around you? What happends when you loose someone or something like a job? Like the society is today with the Virus the whole World got a taste off in 2020. What do you have left in life? Well if you have Jesus in your life, you still have Him when everything else of the temporary is gone. If you don’t have the Lord in your life what do you have than? Do you know your base? Your foundation? I do know mine.

“In this new life, it doesn’t matter if you are a Jew or a Gentile, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbaric, uncivilized, slave, or free. Christ is all that matters, and he lives in all of us.”
Colossians 3:11 NLT
https://bible.com/bible/116/col.3.11.NLT

… How we are changing through what the Bible says. Where will you be in 5 years? Will you have the New or old cloths on? Good and important questions to ask. We can chose where we want to be. We have a choise to sort out of things in our life. By trusting the Lord and live a closer life with Him. We can put on the new clothing by choosing Jesus into our lifes. And with Jesus Christ as our foundation. Or we can those to still wear the old clothing and continue with what we think is the best for our life. We have a choise.

With Jesus Christ as our foundation we know where we are, where we are going. Maybe not the same overview as the Lord has for our life. But we know our direction. Whereever we comes from, whatever we have done, whatever we want in our lifes, the Lord is with us as long as we are with Him.

The small things matters.

To be happy for the small things in life. I talked to a friend over msg yesterday – a small thing to be happy for – you might wondering why. Well we have missed eacher cause of work. We have not in touch for weeks. 😥. But yesterday we had or took time to kind of catch-up and planned a friend-date. And I was creative at work today. 😍🤩😍🤩🖌.

An other small thing to be happy for, is to know that friends you may not talk to every week are still there and you just need to send a txt msg and you are back in the ” game “. 😊😊.

Or to see that “the someone ” has read or watched what you send two weeks ago. 😊😊.

Or to take that call knowing you making a person HaPPy just becauce you took the phone. 😊😊.

Or to send something that maybe isn’t ” a big deal ” for you but for the receiver. 😊😊.

The small things matters. And it can make happy just in that moment or for the rest of the Day. 🤩🤩.

Remember that. 😊😊.

Encourage greeting.

Feelings.

How often do you trust your feelings before you trust the Lord? When it comes to listen to His voice, knowing his voice or obey Him?

How often do you trust your feelings and not believe it is the Lord speaking to you and no it’s not your own thoughts?

Is it like this in all your things in life, that you doubt on the Faith you took you become one of the Lords 🐑🐑? When you received Jesus into your life, you where probably eager to do your best, be the best Christian and then later life and duties came… where are you now in your Faith?

Faith. Is it not as big as it was before? Feel. Do you prioritize your feelings before in other things in life and don’t understand how the Lord can be a part of it? Or are you where you think that Jesus has forgotten you? He will never forget you! And He is closer than you think! He draws himself closer to us when we feel like he is far far away.

Look up, Talk to Him like is in the room or walking beside you to work, or is in the car with you. Talk to Him as He really is your best friend! Have faith in what He can do! Listen to His voice. Trust what He has started in you.

He gave us feelings to feel but He also gave us trust to trust. ✝️. To trust Him when we need it at most. ❤. And to love him no matter what. And to talk/ pray to him whenever we need. 🙏.

No matter where you are in your spiritual life with the Lord He loves you and will never ever leave you, becauce you are His Child.

Words I recived for you who feel you struggling in your faith.

Waiting

We all wait on something. It can be the bus or the train, it can be the mail or a interview, or kids after a school day. You got the picture.

But how do you wait? Do you feel you do not have enough patience for your waiting? Do you think someone else should be the one that should be the waiting person? Do you just sit ” up-side-down “and do nothing else while you’re waiting? Or do you use the time to something else?

I am waiting. Waiting to know when the next step comes. Waiting on to be able to meet “the guy “. Waiting with excitment on what will happend after we met. Waiting could be exhausting but the Lord is giving me so much patience that I am overwelmed.

The patience does not end, no it’s continuing every day. And I have to say that most people had probably already given up by now. And here I am still waiting on what the Lord wants with this. I still don’t have a clue what the Lord will bring me, of this journey.

But I know, and have learned the long way, that if I stick to this, God will not just bless me on the way but also the whole way! ❤✝️

To stay on the sea with the Lord. Be in the boat.

I went for a walk with the Lord yesterday, Saturday, down to the fjord. The marina, a place where I feel comfortable to just be, breath, think and talk to the Lord. Asking the Lord about this waiting. And thanking Him for all the patience He is giving me.

To be the light in an other persons life without really knowing that person or not really knowing that persons life just few pieces. To be able to pray for that persons life every day. 💜 That is a Joy I haven’t thought much about before yesterday. ✝️ How my prayers can bless is one thing. But how the prayers for an other person can give me a new level of patience and calmness. That is what I recive. A new level of fresh air from the Lord.

To stand in the waiting and trusting the Lord, who knows how it will end. What a blessing!! To do something different and where I normally would have given up if I just went on my own thoughts and feelings. But how the Lord is showing me how He is guideing me through this when I am putting this in His hands. ✝️

To have focus on what the Lord wants for me.

My situation with this guy is on distance, which could make it even harder and more frustrarted. Which is where I have been but instead of putting energy on something negative and thinking it could be difficult then I choose to think of it as something exciting and it gives me positive energy.😉😊

Positive energy like all the lovely colours we have around us in this season. 😊

I went to Church for the first time in months today. I can’t say that the preaching hit me with anything but the worship!❤ To just stand there listening a bit and sing along on the songs I knew. 😊 To be filled like no other place can give me then in the Church room with the acoustics, rhythm from the drums and guitar 😊😊 that harmony… in my own waiting gave me a calm peace I hardly can explain with words. But very Thankful for the moment I got!!

Which reminds me to play worship at home. Right now. To turn off the radio and turn ON the Channel to the sky and Lord. ❤

Don’t be desperate in your waiting!just becauce you wants something. Let the Lord guide you. Let it take time.

Happy, Thankful ‘n Blessed.

I am so Happy and Thankful right now. I have had so much other things going on i my life that the Lord hasn’t had the first place in my life for a while… And than tonight he used me and reminded me of the biggest thing.

His love.

And how much he loves me.

And how much he care for me.

A small greeting that become so big for me here and now.

Whatever going on in my life, he needs to come first! How will I otherwise be able to do what he wants for me? And how a simple worship song can change the atmosphere and my mood. 😊

The Lord is blessing my life in so many ways now days. One blessing is to write here and knowing that someone of all of you who follow my blog will be blessed or feel God’s present when you read. An other blessing is how he has turned my financial situation to the positive after years of struggling. Or how he has blessed me with a good part time job on 70% and this year as a janitor beside.

Even if I have challenges in my life he blesses me double up. And I can feel his present.

It’s a Joy I haven’t had in long time now.

This year so far is such a blessing!! Some day’s feel crap but in the end of the day when I go to bed and thanking God for the Day I recive peace and love from Him. ✝️

I just needed to share! And pray and hope you will be able to get this amazing walk with the Lord you too! 😊

Be Creative, use YOUR gift.

You can be creative in all different ways. I am most practical creative when I sew or knitt but I am also creative when I write. I love to sew becauce than I can redesign what I had into something I know I actually will use, put on and be proud of.

This was a par of pants my mom loved when I was a teenager (!) Which is a long time ago. No I made a simple skirt of them. High waist, not my favorite but I’ll get used to it.

I am also creative when I knitt. This picture gonna be a sweater….

…when I have gotten my new circular needles I can continue. 😊

My next project to finish, which I started on last fall/ Autumn is also a skirt. This skirt has also been a par of pants/Jeans. Which I bought in the late teens (!) Been using the a lot and therefor is the cotton fabric very thin.

Before I started make a skirt out of this jeans.

Trying out fabrics, get the feeling of ” is this the combination I really want?”

How you are creative is important for you. God has given you a gift of how to express yourself! What it is, I don’t know. But remember to let God guide you in your creative zone. It can be an instrument you play or that you take good photos or maybe you are a writer, a baker, a singer. Whatever it is, He gave it to you! Becauce He knows how to use you and your gift! He knows how important this gift is for you and me. To express something and maybe even touch other people with what you do! 😊

So go out and explore your gifts with the Lord and create something new. Make sure you have fun while you doing it.

To stand up straight.

To stand up straight in a battle. Your battle. To find tools and trust what you know. To have faith. To have patience. To believe.

To stand up straight in what you belive is the right for you. In this moment. This periode. To feel the present of the Lord in your prayers.

To stand up straight for your faith. To pray for advice from the Lord. To have patience with the Lord. Knowing He take care of your burden. Your prayers. Your life. He and only he who knows you and can give you the love you need in your battle.

To stand up.

Not fall apart.

Belive.

Listen to His voice. Obey when you need to. And just relax in His big arms. Knowing He take care of it all. Knowing He care for you. Knowing He carring you. Knowing His love to you.
