Then I thought “why not move the shelf” from the livingroom (where it anyway just was filled up with things) to the sewing room where I can use it for a purpose of sewing stuff?!? So I did! 😍
This is where the shelf was standing, now I’ve got a green corner.
The door I want to become my Kitchen Iceland is still just standing in my livingroom, but now where it gives me both Inspiration and a good feeling of interiour. 🤩.
My sewing ✂️📍room is taking the form and with the colours I want. It is still some storage I need and shelfs on the wall or floor-storage. I need to buy colour 🟠🧊🖌🎨 and it all will take time – becauce it needs to feel right. And I am not in stress, and I don’t like to rush and I’m not rich. And this is my project right now & to make sure I have fun while doing it.
[The best time for me to write in this blog is whole I am listening to a preaching from Elevaton Church online.]
This room will have a wibe of orange & turquoise 🤩 the colours that have become two motiovation colours for me to be even more Creative.
Remember to enjoy this dayno matter if you are with friends, family or alone at home or away! It’s a day for us all no matter where we are in life! Jesus was born for you.
I am home alone, almost, my cat is with with me…
Listening to the sound from the TV service..
I am watching the early morning Christmas Day service, which in Sweden is called ‘julotta’ and in Norway called ‘julemesse’. This was something I gladly did every year as an aduldt with my mom, and now 2 years after ahe died I do it with thoughts of her ❤Mom❤.
With one of my favorite songs during Christmas “Holly night” 💜. I need to hear it at least once on Christmas Day.
Christmas is often said “to spend time with family & friends” probably becauce it’s a long tradition and what most people are used to do. But my question is; why can’t you or me be alone in this time and celebert Christmas? I like being alone at home and just be, doing nothing or being creative. No stress, no must’s, just me 😊. I don’t say I don’t like being with friends during Christmas. I like the mix of both. Yet, I think it’s interesting how most people thinks ” you must/should not be alone during Christmas “. Why?
I am curious about what you think, please write your thoghts if you like this post.
I have to say I have been like this since I were a child, so those thought are not new. I don’t say I don’t miss having “my own family and spend time with them” even during Christmas or any other Holiday. I guess I am saying I like my Quality time to do what I like 😉. Anyway, I am never alone cauce the Lord is always with me no matter where I am or what I do 😊✝️.
Maybe you work this weekend, then you are with co-workers, not alone all the time yet you will have time to be alone and / or a chose to be with your loved once. Maybe you don’t have a family and spend most of your days alone and need to spend time with friends this weekend, then do! As long as you enjoy it ❤. We all have different life and we all have different needs in life and it’s okay 😉.
So back to the first line of this post remember to enjoy this time of Christmas alone or with friends or family. Do it your way and Enjoy it.
I recived an interview request on a job I actually applyed to (!) I had to decline it.
Which was so wired 🤪 , becauce I never been in that situation before, but I already had a job. 😊🙏✝️.
I had to share it with my nearest friends, before here.
The Lords way isn’t ours!
He showing us which way to walk if we trust Him.
My testimony is in my blog, how my rollercoaster Spring went from chaos to prayeranswers.
One after the other. How the Lord showed me love by trusting Him even the day’s when everything felt nothing but chaotic.
My testimony is real. It’s my life.
The Lord literally is a part of my life and Faith.
He challenges me to do things his way when some, non Christian some Christian, who don’t understand how I dare to just jump into something so unsure future.
It’s all about Faith.
You need to have faith and believe in what you doing even during the doubting!
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 itsomething else you waiting on? You who following my blog.
Why do we need to Wait on things?
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 “.
All about Believing.
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).
The Autumn of 2020.
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…
Thoughts after house church meeting on zoom, June 6th. Where the theme was John 14 & 15. And those who were leading the house church a couple they started to read those chapters each by them selfs and than together. This was as much as I recall of what I manage to follow before I ” fell out “..
I started to read JOHN 15 and I kind of fell off or out of the ” meeting ” while I read v. 8, v.16-17 and v. 26. They spoke to me. In different ways. How the Lord is Vine and I am a branch (v.8), How HE chose me (v.16-17) & at last HE will send the Spirit & Truth to me (v.26).
Does it speak to you? What are your thoughts about this?
What is my thoughts about the fruit that John is talking about? Have I (you) been in a situation where the Father (the Lord) is the gardener and cuts of the branches of mine that doesn’t produce fruit?
Maybe. I can’t recall any situations right now. But I probobly have. How will I otherwice grow as a Christian person? How does he do it? How does he cut the branches while I still live? Well he doesn’t do it physical it’s a metafor or picture. And what is the fruit? How do I know it is a fruit from the Lord?
I recall one of the others talk about how they were thinking of the fruits. Like being a helping person or testify about what I/you belive. How Jesus is a part of my/your life.
Am I that kind of person, that talks about what I belive to those I meet? No, and I have never been. But I have a tattoo that for me is my testify of my faith. I have chosen to do it this way mostly becauce I have easily to chat with new unknown people.
In John 15 vers 8, Yes, I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who remaine in me and I in them, will produce much fruit.
How to stay and be the good branches? How to produce more fruit? That is my questions after reading this. How can I produce more fruit in my life as a Christian while I am who I am? He is the vine I am the branch. 😍 ✝️
In John 15 verses 16-17; You didn’t choose me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask for, using my name. This is my command: Love each other.
HE, Jesus chose me. ✝️
He chose me to Love each other!
To do things out of love, no matter what it is You do for others.
John 15 vers 26; “But I will send you the Advocate —the Spirit of truth. He will come to you from the Father and will testify all about me.”
This vers talked to me in the way that ” the advocate will come to me from the Father.. ” Whatever happends I will be able to recive this as a believing Christian. I need to seek and read and talk to him who chose me. He has given me this. He has given me the Spirit of thruth! WOW what a gift to recive!! This is big!
HowI sharing my faithwith those I meet daily. As I wrote above, I have chosen to do it by tattoos (I will finish the one tattoo I started on in 2008 (P.U.S.H.)). Which for other people is just a symbol or letters has a bigger and deeper meaning for me and I know what it stands for and than I tell them my story. How I became a Christian and how those 4 letters is how Christian people around me prayed for me. How theirs prayers became my new path in life. The continuing of this tattoo is F.R.O.G. – Fully Rely On God. My way to the Christian I am today.
I have had a rough week with a locked back. I have not had this for a long time which is good. 😊
So I have been praying 🙏 for my back all week and it got better. 👍 And I got a request on Monday to help in Church tomorrow Sunday (the 9th), and the Day I was asked I felt “oh no I wont be able” but after reading few others blog about faith and listen to Daddy God, I will walk in faith to help out in Church tomorrow.
My thoughts today was to get inspired by other bloggers here on Word Press and I did. 💕 Thank you.
Your faith mean something for us all.
Your sharing of what’s going on in your daily life helps me reflect over my issues. 💗
