"Too much,God...hahaha" :-)
Lately God has been doing a lot in my life. Things are changing more and more.... Walking around in town or at work, everywhere I go(!) This other day I just *had to* tell this guy about God on my way to a meeting. I got to pray for him before he left and I know God is working in his life. Yesterday I just *had to* ask a woman that I work with if I could pray for her ear, she had big pain in it and today she had an appointment with her doctor. This morning when I asked her how she was feeling she sad: "It's still there, but it is better."
Friday night I had a toothache and it really hurt, some friends and I prayed and in the morning the first thing I noticed was that there was no more pain! Praise God!!
Saturday morning I was supposed to meet some people at 6:15am, by mistake my alarm didn't go of and miraculously I woke up 6:05 - I meet them 2 minuets too late :)
This morning when I was supposed to get up and get ready for work, my alarm rang 4 or 5 times but I fell asleep again each time...again miraculously I woke up, this time 6:45 - which is half an hour before I have to go to my bus..
You know what?! I'm unable to go out of my house anymore.......where ever I go there is always a person that I pass that I really want to tell about God. (I mean like really want to - like burning inside of me..) Going home from work today I overheard a conversation. At first I was like: "Ah....a drunk person..." But then the burning started: "Noooo....wait! These guys needs God!!" Not knowing what to do I said to God: "This is too much God....You have to do something here, or else we have a problem!" By this I didn't mean that I didn't want the burning desire to tell people about God (I'd want SO much more of it!!), no, I meant with that desire I also needed boldness. Because although I do know there is no reason to be afraid of man or Satan and his army, I still need God to reveal it even more to my heart...
So my prayer will be:
"God, reveal Your power and Your love, more of who You are to my heart, Lord!!
Be in my life, let a flame burn in me, for You and for mankind!
Let me be a Jesus Freak to the nations of this world :)
Praised be Your holy name!
I thank You for Your love and mercy, Lord Jesus!
In Your name, Amen!"

A deam and a newspaper...
In a dream I saw some of my classmates from high school coming to visit me.
They were saying all kind of horrible tings about God and Christianity and I were just standing there thinking that I couldn't just let them say all of that without any response. But I were speechless.....and I prayed quietly.
Suddenly I felt a great joy growing in my heart and I couldn't keep away the smile that were spreading all over my face. I opened my mouth and started telling them that it in fact was all about Gods amazing love that we are saved. And that, yeah, hell is a reality(!), and that they have to choose for them self before this life is over. Telling them about Gods love a smile came to there faces...telling them about the choice they had to make you could see that they understood how serious it was.
When I woke up (I never read the newspaper!) I found the newspaper to go through it form beginning to end.
I found this article about Jew hatred.. It was a answer to an other article that said that Jews were evil and that the old testament in the Bible was just terrible - basically it had the same arguments for Jew hate as Hitler had when he destroyed so many people.. This article was about the fact that it's Christianity that has the resent history of being evil - crusades, killing people who won't convert to Christianity -I mean church history is filled with it. Hitler said him self to be a Christian when he killed all the Jews because (after what he said) they killed Jesus. By the way: Hitler was half Jewish him self.
God, I don't understand how such evil can come out of a religion that believes in a LOVING, MERCIFUL and JUST God? Actually a FATHER - THE Father!
(we need to pray that God lets the people of the world know the real Father and that Satan's lies will be crushed faster then a lightning goes over the sky...
People of the world NEED God, our Lord!)
I cried reading the end of the article....Satan has really don his job with destroying the reputation of Christianity. Thank God we have a good God who has all ready won full victory so we can start all over again showing mankind who God really is, the Creator and Father of all creation!!
May all creation from trees,
waters and wind, to animals,
birds and humans praise the ever lasting God
for who He is and for His never ending love and mercy toward us!!
(by the way: Jews are Gods chosen people and He LOVES them, we are supposed to love them too like our Father does)

Sunshine...even when the waves are roaring
On a boat trip yesterday I looked at the waves, they were really tall at times. And they never stopped coming. It reminded me of all the problems we can meet everyday, they might never seem to stop coming. They might make you feel sick, week or even hopeless.. And when they never stop coming you might just wanna give up.....
But I also felt the warmth of the sun burning on my back all the time and it reminded me that no matter how tall the waves get or how often they keep coming God is always there with His love and He gives strength to get trough. Sometimes when the waves are roaring you might not see the Sun but still if it weren't there at all it would be so much worse.. And as always the Sun has to come out from the clouds. Then God show Him self and reminds you that He really is there and care. Even tough the problems might not stop coming you can feel and see that He really is there and gives you strength in the middle of the storm.
Thank You, Jesus!

Soldier! Stand up and fight!
"Are you just gonna sit there and watch while the whole world goes to hell?"
These words were the first I heard when I got to the movie theater tonight. They got stuck in my head through the whole movie. Walking home from the bus I got to think about a song called "Stand" written by Rebecca St. James(my favourite singer) and Reggie Hamm. It says that there's a time for everything and that I (or we who believe in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior) has to stand up and tell the world about the hope in Him. That we can't be silent while everyone around us quietly goes to hell without even knowing about it. We have the answer, the solution, the ONLY ONE who can give them LIFE instead of eternal death in hell.
If you're not a Christian and you read this you might get seared, provoked or you might just laugh about it. But think about it: if you were sleeping in a burning house about to die, a friend sow you in the house said to him self "Oh no! His gonna die I have to help him, but what if...(something)" There are always a reason why a Christian shouldn't tell a friend that his going to hell...The friend might get angry and would never want to talk to you again and you don't wanna lose your friend, or..well the reasons are many!
BUT think about it!! Risk losing a friend here or losing a friend and watch him go to hell knowing that YOU could have done something about it...
Jesus Christ gave His life for everyone on this earth so they would NOT have to go to hell and pay the price for the lies, thefts, rapes and kills and all the other stuff that they have done wrong(me too, I've done a lot of stupid things..I'm not perfect, but God gave me a new start because of what Jesus did)
You might say "How could God love a rapist or a murderer and let Jesus take their punishment?" But we've all done stupid things and after our thoughts and way of thinking a murderer is worse then a lier but to God they're just as bad. He loves us and wants to be in a personal relationship with us, but we have to come to Jesus and let Him take our sin and give us a new start, a new chance. And from there He will help us and lead us to do what's right and turn to Him again when we make mistakes (it will happen even though we try not to, we will grow and as we learn to know Him we become more like Him-more perfect)
I'm gonna end this now..... It's a lot to think about here. Now what counts is to STAND UP and let the world know the truth about what they'll face in the end cause they might have everything they need here in this life, but what about eternity? They need to know!
So my last words will be:
SOLDIER! STAND UP AND FIGHT!
"GO OUT TO ALL THE WORLD AND PREACH THE GOSPEL TO ALL OF THE CREATION" -the gospel, the good news that Jesus took our punishment and gave us life, we just have to except the gift of salvation.
Mark. 16:15-translation from Norwegian King James version of the Bible.

His Lap
I wish I had wings
then I could fly:
Above the mountains and the seas
Touch the stars and sit on the moon
Fly to God and sit on His lap...
Oh, I wish I could fly!
