…made me feeling low yesterday and today. But you know what? I talked out loud my frustration to the Lord and …

Some food.
Some painting.
And then application (s) 😉.
I just needed to be a bit low to be able to rise up again. With new energy and motivation ❤🙏✝️.

The Lord knows us to well to know what we need ❤😊.

Devotional January 21st to January 26th.

5 ways to fulfill ur potentional.

We can become so caught up in everyday that it easier to continue in old patterns rather than change.

I have been here. I am proud of myself that step by step I am changing my reading habbits.

Your potentional is not about being driven by amition or success , it is about recognising who you are in God.

As you seek him & live your life according to his purpose , you will bear much fruit. The more you begin to fulfill your God-given potential, the more he entrusts to you. You have the potential to live a life of even greater blessing than those you read about in the Old Testament. Jesus says, ‘Blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.

How to Navigate Life;

Wisdom has been defined as ‘*the art of steering’*. As you go through life, you will need to navigate many tight situations that require great wisdom in order to avoid damaging yourself or others. And how do we do that?

Unfaithfulness is an example of a wrong turn. Wisdom will ‘keep you from making wrong turns, or following the bad directions. (Proverbs 2:12-22). Where are all those than? Well in your life. You probably know them all or you know about them but don’t recognize them.

A binding agreement that should not be broken, like marriage. Are you married then you know and understand thus better then me who isn’t, yet I hope I’ll get there one day. But I do understand the meaning of what the Bible want me to understand.

Choose the good path

Difficult times in your life can take you off course in the wrong direction. But if you stay on the right course it will lead to greater compassion and wisdom. (Matthew 14:1-21).

To know where your focus are. Knowing your direction in life, is it studdies or work or get to know the Lord more? How do we know when it’s starting to go a bit to the left or right? And which direction is right? If you don’t ask the Lord for direction how will you know you are going in the right direction? So how will you then know how to get greater compassion and wisdom?

Fear of rejection can also lead us into trouble. Make sure you don’t allow what others think of you to matter more than what is right.

As an aduldt it might be easier but yet you can be rejected. It can be from someone you like, a job you want or maybe a trip you would like to go on. I work with youth, an age where many are unsecure on them selfs. It’s hormons and changes most all the time. And during this age it’s fast to get rejected just becauce ‘ you are not like everyone else ‘ which basicly no one is becauce of the hormons. But ‘ no one ‘ think about that. And how to guide the youth to feel they don’t get rejected or feel fear is hard. I can only talk about myself when I was a teenager. I hated the school mainly becauce my schoolmates were awfull to me. I was bullied. I had a lot of fear against my schoolmates. And the only one that helped me to not take it all in was my middle big brother.

Later as an aduldt I’ve recived support, wisdom, no fear, love and blessing into my life from the Lord. And learned how to be able to not fear most things.

Allow God to interrupt your plans.  This is so important. If you don’t let Him interrupt you will easier both get more lost in your own planing but also get the feeling of some kind of lacking or that He is further away from you and your Faith. I know that feeling.

Navigate through the challenges of life. Have you ever been rejected, treated unjustly, let down by a friend or found yourself in some other frustrating situation?

This is the daily struggle for most of us. Who hasn’t felt lost? Who hasn’t had challenges in the daily life? Or treated unjustly? Been let down by a friend? We all have been there!

So, how can we Navigate in life without being challenged every day? Well I would say through the Bible we get many answers. Read or listen, like I do, to the script we get guidense to navigate! We get patience to all the challenges we go through. And tons of love to make it. <3.

A week after I got the job…

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!

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…

Made up my mind – get healthy.

I have made up my mind to start at a gym again becauce I need it so badly. My body is so out of shape and I need my muscles back!

Walking the body warm works fine. But I still can’t do the machines I love 😥 all becauce I went to the chiropractor on this Monday (July 20.) and he actually made my back werse 😭😭.

So today’s workout is all about streching my back, hips and legs.

I could sit on this ball 4ever..

I’m in my own head when I’m at the gym. I don’t care much for the others which is a good feeling! I don’t care if someone look at me and what I’m doing.

Which right now maybe could be an issue…

Boxing corner just ahead of me.

This is my second time here. 💪💪😊 As for me as probably most people, the thing to get out is the hard part. But I have to say that today I kind of woke up with the “Exercise mood”. Which made it easier!

This is my motivation.

To be in the shape, especially my back without pain. To be able to push legs around 80-90kg. Knowing I have strong legs. Being able to push my arms on 40-50kg.

Knowing that my core muscles are back where they should be & holding me. Motivation to be able to once again be able to do push-ups & sit-ups normally. Motivation to be able to go for a run in the forest & on the runing machine at the gym without any pain in the back. That is my motivation in life.

I’m gonna do my best to reach my motivation goals. And by reaching them I need to forse myself to attend the gym at least twice a week. If I’m good I’ll go three times a week. 😊

And all this wouldn’t been able to if the Lord didn’t blessed me and my life.

I can only Thank Him. For making sure my financial situation is back on good terms. That He blesses me in other areas too. ✝️

Focus. Challenge. Keep reading.

I have to say it isn’t as easy to stay on the reading track as I had hope it to be.

But I am not giving up I continue to challenge myself to read as soon as I am on a bus, tram or metro for more than just two stops.

Keep reading.

Challenge yourself.

Seek the good words.

Have faith.

Belive.

Only you can change your habbit.

Only you know how to get on the right reading track!

I challenge myself and you to stay focus.

The water is from the Lord.

We need to drink and eat, we hear it often being preached. And it’s truth.

How are we living without food and water? Noone does. So how to survive without the food from the Word?

That is my question for myself when I haven’t read as I wanted.
