Grønn dessert (Frodiths farge utfordring)

Frodith har en farge utfordring nå for tiden og jeg har tenkt å være med. Først utfordring i går var grønn.

Så her er det min grønn farge. Grønn gele til dessert.

Den blander jeg med Macapuno (young coconut dessert) Kjøpes på en Asia butikk.

Blandes sammen

Pluss halv boks av condensed melk

Pyntes med cocktail vær!

Dessert på en mandag:)

Er du med på Frodiths fargeutfordring?

Gårsdagenstur

En god dag til deg fra “Happy Castle.” Ute vinden uler, men det regner ikke. Håper vinden roe seg ned etterhvert slik at jeg kan dra til kirkegård for å plante blomsterplanter.

Skulle gjøre det i går, men dro isteden til nærmeste strand for å gå en liten tur. Litt kaldt å bade ennå. Jeg tørs ikke isbading:)

Dermed, gårsdagensbilder.

Hva skal du gjøre i dag?

Ha en fin dag i hvertfall:)

Søndagsgodt

Vi kan sikkert si mandagsgodt, tirsdagsgodt og videre. Men i dag er det søndag og da bli det søndagsgodt. Så en oppskrift fra Yummly.com

Det så godt ut og jeg prøvde.

Min måte:

Det var i hvertfall godt:)

Hva har du spist i dag?

Keep your thoughts!

Devotion for the day!

Reflection:

What it says?

The passage above tells me /you that we should dwell on the things that are true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and of good repute. Not only that. We should practice what we had learned from the Word of God and what we had seen from the people of God in the Bible. Also, focus my/your eyes on anything worthy of praise.

 

What I think?

It is quite not so easy nowadays because we are bombarded with lies from the world. Like if we buy a certain toothpaste, our smiles will be brighter, and our teeth will be sparkling whites. Or it is ok to have sex with anyone you like as long as both partners agreed. Our minds are intoxicated and polluted with all the propaganda from the world. There is a saying that “we are what we think and we are what we eat.”

I read that flamingos were not born pink. As babies, they have light gray colors. They became pink because they eat mostly shrimps, and certain kinds of algae that have lots of beta carotene in them. Beta carotene is reddish-orange pigment ( the stuff that makes color)

So, like the flamingos, we are what eat. I am not saying that if we eat too many carrots, we will turn into an orange color. I don’t think we need to worry about it because we do only not eat carrots, but also other variants of food that have other colors. And if we eat a lot of junk foods, then our body will suffer from many sicknesses. So, we should be careful what we take in. Remember, our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit. We cannot pollute the body that was made holy by the blood of Jesus.

 

Well, the things we see, hear, and think about- become part of who we are. For example, we might hear a certain melody that we like and started singing the song. But are we aware of the lyrics? Does it feed our minds with things that are pure and holy?

Seeing the news about the war between Ukraine and Russia makes us hate a certain man and feel sorry for refugees. What can we do about it? We can of course help the refugees in some way, but to focus our eyes on the war 24/7 will make us depressed and fearful.

All the things that we watch on tv, YouTube, TikTok, etc. on the internet affect us very much. Not to mention the books we read or any reading materials. Would our thoughts then please God? I read in a book that we can never unsee or unhear something. It will forever be inside our brains, coloring who we are. So, we ought to be careful what we let in because there is a saying that if we put garbage in us, then it will be garbage that will come out from us too.

 

What shall I do?

So, how we can keep garbage out of our minds? I believed that I/you should apply the verse above. To put out the bad thoughts away, we should fill our minds with things that are true, (word of God) honorable, right, pure, lovely, whatever is of good repute and praise. It said that if we practice those things, God’s peace will be with us. Practice means that we should do it all the time. Like if we want to lose weight, it is not enough to just practice eating nutritious food one day. It should be practice day after day.

 

Practice

Something will always fill our minds. It is up to us what we want to absorb or not. If a thought does not fit God’s words, we should not dwell on it. Practice…practice and practice! Faith cometh by hearing and hearing the word of God. It is the same with doubt. If we just listen and listen to the world, then our faith will waver and we began to doubt God’s goodness.

 

Where you are is where your power is!

Inspiration for the day for me and you!

Where you are is where your power is.

Let that sink in for a moment.

The steps you take today, and every day, matter.

So keep track of your daily habits, figure out where your time and energy goes, and gradually remove needless distractions.

Remember, there’s a big difference between empty fatigue and gratifying exhaustion.

Life is too short not to focus more on what matters most.

And you don’t have to overwhelm yourself either. Just do what you can right now…

Practice focusing on what truly matters, and letting go of what does not. Use your frustrations to motivate you rather than annoy you. You are in control of your focus, and how you choose to allocate your energy.

Truly, your growth starts with your thinking—your focus. Learning to let go of certain ideas, and emotionally detach from certain patterns, are two of the great paths to inner peace…

But you have to be consistent about it.

Remind yourself that, just like every muscle in the body, the mind needs to be exercised to gain strength. It needs to be worked consistently to grow and develop over time. If you haven’t pushed yourself in hundreds of little, positive ways over time, of course you’ll crumble on the one day that things get really challenging.

Again though, it doesn’t have to be that way going forward. You have choices…

  1. You can choose to be present when it would be easier to play on your phone.
  2. You can choose to do a workout when it would be more comfortable sit around.
  3. You can choose to create something special when it would be quicker to consume something mediocre.
  4. You can choose to invest in yourself when it would take less effort to procrastinate.

You can PROVE TO YOURSELF that you have the guts to get in the ring and wrestle with life…

Mental strength is built through lots of little, daily victories. It’s the individual choices we make day-to-day that build our “mental strength” muscles. We all want this kind of strength, but we can’t wish our way to it. If you want it, you have to create positive rituals—MIND-STRENGTHENING RITUALS—in your life that reinforce what you desire.

Tilbakeblikk

God morgen til deg. Her er vi velsignet med mye regn i dag. Det grå været får man til å krype til senga igjen. Men selv om jeg har talt sauer i natt og drømte mye mareritt da jeg endelig fikk sove…. må jeg også stå opp og takke Gud for at jeg har fått igjen en dag til å disponere.

Ettersom jeg hadde en blogg friuke i påske, fikk jeg ikke dele hva jeg hadde gjort i påske.

Så here we goes.

Fra stedet vi bor tok vi ferja for å kjøre til andre siden av fjorden. Det var nydelig vær.

Vi kjørte til Stugudal for å besøke svigerinnen med familie. Tenkt å se Henfallet fossen før det, men veien der var stengt på grunn av mye snø.

Og som du ser, var det mye snø. Vi så folk som gikk på ski barn som voksne. Noen isfisket på vatn og noen brukte snøscooter. Påske aktiviteter. Og gamla(meg) prøvde akebrettet også sammen med barn og barnebarnet. Det var kjempegøy for oss alle særlig for min datter og barnebarn fra Filippinene som har aldri sett så mye snø i hele sitt liv:)

På vei hjem besøkte vi Naturparken i Tydal. Det skulle være mange ulike skulpturer av dyr der, men de fleste var dekket med snø, så vi så bare få av dem.

Under kjøreturen hjem, så vi dette stor trollet. Husket ikke navnet på stedet.

Kjørte gjennom, denne broen.

Påskemorgen ble vi invitert av min søster til påskemiddag. Vi fikk servert elgryte, ribbe og pancit. Vi hadde påskequiz, spilt bowling og let etter påskeegget. Kjempekoselig tid. 

Etter turen til Stugudalen ble jeg faktisk veldig dårlig og da vi var hos min søster lå jeg mye på hennes sofa. Slik er det med fibromyalgi. Men jeg fikk mye glede i påske allikevel sammen med familien til tross for at kroppen min er ikke som før.

Hadde du det fint sist Påske? Har du vært innom Stugudalen?

Er våren kommet endelig?

God dag til deg:) Har du sovet godt i natt? Jeg i hvertfall fikk ca 5-6 timer søvn. Og det var jo bra.

Hjernen min er litt tåkete i dag som været, men det hjalp å trekke inn frisk luft. Derfor, selv om det var grått, gikk vi en liten tur i nærmiljø. Heldigvis det var ikke mye kushit lukt denne dagen.

Noen bilder fra turen:)

Har begynt å plante stemor også og tok med meg inn vårblomster:)

Avslutter med dagens ord:)

Ha en fin dag til deg:)

Har du begynt å plante sommerblomster?
