2006

My thoughts for 2007

December 28th We will soon leave the year of 2006. How did you experience last year? Each and every one of us could tell our own story. For some of us it has been a good year, but for others it might have been a year full of sickness and sorrow. What do we do with what has been? I want you to meditate on the year of 2006. Have you thanked God for being your Father? Did you thank Jesus for being your Savior? Did you thank the Holy Spirit for being your Helper? Maybe you did’nt even use the ... (read more)

Jesus is the life

December 18th THE LIFE. Jesus IS Life, HAS Life and GIVES Life. Jesus was from the very beginning when God created Heaven and Earth and everything living on the earth. He created at the end man i His image. God SAID and it WAS. Words have the power of life and death. It says in John 1.1 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” It continues to say that He was with God and in Him was life, and the life was the light of men. God has created ... (read more)

Jesus is the truth

December 8th Jesus does not say that He has the truth, but He IS the Truth. That means that there cannot exist any lies in Him, not even a little one. All of Jesus is Truth. I looked up in a dictionary and looked for the different meanings of truth. I found many explanations depending on which philosophy or faith you had. They mentioned absolute truths and logical truths. That means that you draw a conclusion, based on what is said. I believe that Jesus was and is absolute true. God is also ... (read more)

Jesus is the way

November 28th I want to write about Jesus as the way, the truth and the life. The first will be about THE WAY. In the same scripture you can read that no one comes to the Father, but through Jesus. (John 14:6) In the world to-day we are so afraid to step on somebody’s religious toes that we hardly dare to preach that there is only One Way to salvation or one way to God. That road is called Jesus and only Jesus gives us admission to God. In certain countries it is forbidden to preach that ... (read more)

The Word of God is your food, part 2

November 18th Part 2. We are continuing to compare the Word with the food we eat or choose not to eat. I wrote that we need variation in our diet. If we have a one-sided diet, we become undernourished. In some churches, they teach a lot about the word of salvation and grace. This teaching might have led you to make the decision of salvation and you are very happy. You continue in the same church and the problems of every-day life arise. You might have problems with paying your bills and you ... (read more)

The Word of God is your food, part 1

November 8th Part 1 The Bible is full of stories about natural food as well as spiritual food. Much of our life is circling around food. How we get the food is dependant on our culture. In my culture we go to the shops to buy the food. One needs money in order to buy food and what we buy is dependant on the price. I am travelling a good deal and I have eaten a lot of different food and seen a lot of different “food-culture”. In some countries they eat out of necessity. Without food ... (read more)

Call to me, and I will answer

August 8th We have been given a telephone-number to God and that is:333. In Jeremiah 33:3 it says:”Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know. In other translations they might use the word: Cry unto Me! In other languages, it is used a word that says cry out with a loud voice. God has no problems with His hearing. He looks into our hearts. God is not dependent on the volume of our voice. He wants us to come to Him with boldness and ... (read more)

Summer

June 28th SUMMER……………That means different things for you who live in India and for you who live in Scandinavia. I India it means a time of heat and monsoon-rain. It might not be a time one looks forward to. The rain is necessary, but the humidity and the heat can almost be intolerable. The fall is a wonderful time for vacation. The temperature is just right. The summer months in Scandinavia are June, July and August. Finally we get some warmth and can use less ... (read more)

This is a Jesus year!!

January 8th He is the beginning and the end, and everything in between. We are called to a high and holy calling according to 2.Timothy 1:9. Called for what? We are called to be like Jesus. In order to be like Him, we have to be with Him. As a Christian, we are in Him, but we might not be so much with Him. A couple who have been married for a long time, start looking alike because they have been so much together. Can people around us see and hear that we look and talk like Jesus? God called us ...
