Time with a friend.

To share life with a friend once in a while. To grab a coffee or a cup of tea. Take time – make time.

My challenge this year is to be more social with friends after work. I have not had that kind of energy before and I am doing my best to force myself to more social after work. How can I do that?

Today Tuesday I woke up one hour earlier than normal and I’ve been tired all day and I said to myself that “it’s better to go and grab a coffee with my friend and stay at home and fall a sleep in the 🛋”

I went, and I am happy I did!

To share time, life, thoughts and things we Christians experince is both encourging and good to do. To listen to the other person. To just be in the situation.

To talk with the Lord and ask for what I wish for in life after the meeting was also something we talked about over the ☕. And I reminded myself to do that. And asked to be reminded about it every day. Becauce it doesn’t matter where we talk or when as long as we do it! ✝️

To take time is to care for the other person.

How aware are we of what we saying?

Sustainable Life: Relationships

The tongue has power over death and life.

We need to think of how and what we saying in the meeting with friends, new people, Church and family. We need to think what is coming out is it positive or negative?

Presence of positive moments.

Make sure you make positive moments with whomever you meet.

We must take care to replenish with positive words in the day, do not use negative words. Be conscious of what I said.

Why fails to stumble? What is it that makes me repeat things, words, situations without thinking about what was done?

Do they (I) mean everything they (I) say or do they (I) just say something to have something to say?

How aware are we of WHAT we say when we speak?

SMALL THINGS HAVE GREAT POWER

If we want a change we must GO to the source!

What the heart is full of what the mouth is talking about.

I hope this is as inspiring for you as it is for me. We always need to be reminded of this! To be able to live close to the Lord we need to open up our mind.

Grace and new friendship. 

God has humor! 

I thought I just said yes to a random Couchsurfer for this weekend, but he showed me wrong. He sended a girl who needed to here some of my life experience and about my path with God to see positive on her adventure here in Norway. 

She came more then less directly from her brothers Wedding on Friday in Polen to me in Oslo on Saturday (yesterday). Tied and only wanted to rest which she did. 😉 

We had many good conversations about life, faith and how to see what and when God is talking. 😊  We watched tve movie War Room (which I think everyone should see no matter what you believe.) It has humor, lots of things to learn if life and if you are a believer, many good advice of how to grow with God. She told me after the movie that she needed to watch it, that it was good for her. So glad I were to hear that. 

Grace was the word that we talked a lot about those hours she stayed with me and how grace can be a part if our life in different situations of life.   How God has showed me grace in all kind of life-situation and how God has provide me with what I need or how God have closed or open doors in my life when I trust God.  How she can trust God.  How to push emotions aside when the emotions turns into fear instead of the oppisite – happiness or peace in the specific situation there and then.  When we come with high expections from what God can do, he do provide our life just the He lnows we need it. 
Grace, love, trust and faith is some of the things he has given us to have in our relationship with him.

To cry for something beautiful.

I cry when I read something beautiful or watch a beautiful movie or when I watching someone helping someone else like in the series “Extreme Make Over, with Ty Pennington”, because it touch my heart.

I cry, when I read my own words for my Mom. I don’t cry so often, but when I cry it’s like something I just need to do there and then. Like God knows when I need to cry.

I cried when I received the sad news of my bonus grandpa was gone and that I didn’t have opportunity to be there when he went away. ❤

I cried when my mom’s ant past away, cause she had made an impact on me. And I still missing her humor and sense of cloths..and she has been gone for more then 15 years.. ❤

I cried when my first best friend Josef took his life. I was 5 years old. I lost my very best friend. The sad part is that my dad didn’t understand how good friends we were and how much it had meant for me to be there in the funeral with his parents. So I cried.

I will cry when ever Mom leaving us. But I also know it will be Happy tears.

When I cry it’s like something is healing on the inside.
