Ja…..regn og atter regn i flere dager og jeg har ikke hatt mulighet til å gå ut en tur. Jobbet i fire dager og der har jeg brukt opp energidepoten min. Men selv om det, har jeg jo fått så mye glede av å være sammen med de eldre. Gjensidig glede. Er bare glad for at jeg har klart å jobbe igjen. Og jeg klarer å sove igjen om nettene.
Men i dag har jeg fri og selv om det var meldt bare regn, kom det en gløtt av sol. Så, jeg benyttet sjansen til å gå en liten tur.
Mamma, jeg og min venninne skal til en hytta i Kongsberg. Det var ordene fra min yngste datter i går kveld. Og i dag da jeg våknet på morgenen, hørte jeg den fæle drap på Kongsberg og lurte på om yngste datteren min er i live.
Heldigvis, var hun ikke på det stedet det skjedde drap.
Hun var i dette fjellet som heter ” Styggmann” utenfor Kongsberg.
Jeg innbiller meg at damer kunne ikke dra hjemmefra uten en veske. Men der tar jeg feil fordi jeg har sett flere som har bare mobilen sin når de drar av gårde som for meg er utenkelig.
Selvfølgelig når man skal bare ta seg en tur til butikken og handler, så er det nok med pengebok og mobil. Min ligger i en liten veske for jeg har også handleposer:)
Men ellers til vanlig når jeg skal bort eller skal til arbeid, jeg må ha min store veske.
Og hva rommer den?
Ja, det er avtalebok, bankbrikken, notatbok med skrevne passord, lypsyl, leppestift, munnbind, mobilstativ, pengebok, våt og vanlig servietter, pen, notatbok, mobillader og telefon. I tillegg til truse og trusebind…i tilfelle jeg skulle hatt et uhell. Så, vesken min er litt stor den. Jeg trives med stor og romslig veske.
Enn du? Liker du å bruke store vesker og hva inneholder din veske?
Actually, at this time of my life, I don’t think I have enemies….but one can never know. I am thinking…who my enemies might be? The first thing that I know is the devil. But I of course could not love him! But maybe people that the devil is using people to make my life miserable? Then, I just have to love them because they do not know that they are under the influence of the devil and are lost? Show them that is better to be influenced by God instead?
It is said that pray for those who hurt us. Well, I heard someone that said that if he is going to do that…it will be a never-ending prayer.
I might agree with him because when I began to think about it… many people hurt us. Maybe people that we are not in direct contact with like the criminals who hurt or abuse innocent people. Those who molest children. Those that steal and those that have a bad mouth. Godless people who curse or ignore God. Believers that criticize each other and could not agree on who is right and who is wrong. Unforgiving people and proud people. And they are everywhere.
I am just wondering if we are God’s enemies before we repented? Probably because Satan is his enemy and once, we were in his domain, and we acted like him. Sinning and doing our own thing. Not Wordy, but worldly.
Come to think of it, I believe we still hurt God by taking His love for granted. By following our desires than His Word. By using so much time on other things than pursuing what God had called us to do. May God have mercy on us.
I think the verse just reminds us how BIG IS THE LOVE OF GOD. He died for us when we are still sinners. He did not ask us to die for our enemies. Just to love and pray for them. Anyway, if we do, we will not lose something. We will be just Christlike. And that is what matters the most.
Prayer: Dear God…it is not really easy loving our enemies. It is difficult enough loving people that are not our enemies. Like, people, we don’t know or have no part in our everyday lives. Or the criminals….bad people. But, I supposed that with You in our hearts, it can be possible.
Father, put it in our hearts whom we needed to pray for every day. And I pray also that we will not hurt other people. And as You had forgiven us, we should always and always forgive. I pray in Jesus’ name. Amen
True or false. In this modern world, a lot of things that are true before became false nowadays and vice versa. People are twisting the truth especially the Word of God.
But as a believer, my/your preference should be the Word of God. The world says it is ok to tell white lies, but the word of God says that it is not. So, we should not lie.
The world says it is ok to have premarital sex, but the Word of God calls it fornication which is a sin.
The world says it is ok to take revenge, but the Word of God says vengeance is His and that we as believers should forgive and love our enemies.
The enemy can tell us that we are weak and good for nothing. Or he can say that we can do anything we want, be whatever we want although other people suffer for it as long as it makes us happy. He can tempt us with worldly goods so that our eyes will not be focused on the Word of God. But as believers, we should choose the Word of God as the truth because it is the real truth.
God says that we are wonderfully made. With God in us, nothing can be impossible for us. In addition, we don’t need to seek the world and everything in it because it can cost us our souls. God promised that if we seek His kingdom first and its righteousness, everything will be added unto us.
The verse says that God will continue to be true even when every person is false. It means we can always trust God no matter what.
Prayer: Dear God, this world and the enemy are bombarding us with false truth every day. So, I pray Oh God that we will remain steadfast to the truth of Your Word. That we will meditate on it, chew it bit by bit, divide it into thousand pieces, dive in the treasure in it, and live after it. The reward then is to be in Your Holy presence now and eternity.
We are very lucky though to be in Your presence Oh God because You speak the truth in love. Where the spring of life comes and where there is no darkness at all. You have the love that surpasses all. Love that never ends. In You, we can have peace during turbulence. We are provided in times of drought. And most of all, we are saved from destruction. Glory to Your name Oh Father. I pray in Jesus’ name. Amen
Yey! Min sjømann kom endelig hjem i går kveld. Dette bildet tok han den siste natten han sov på båten før han dro hjem.
Ettersom han var om bord da han hadde bursdag sist, fikk han en blomsterbukett fra meg da han kom hjem. Jeg mener at det er ikke bare han som skulle gi meg blomster. Han fortjener blomster han også.
