SAFEST PLACE

”God is our refuge and strength,an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains
fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the
mountains quake with their surging.

There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.

God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day…

…He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”/Psalm 46

WHERE MY STRENGHT COMES FROM


”He gives power to the faint,
and strengthens the powerless.

Even youths will faint and be weary,
and the young will fall exhausted;

but those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength,
they shall mount up with wings like eagles,
they shall run and not be weary,
they shall walk and not faint.”
/Isaiah 40:27-30

Many of us thinks that strenght comes from being buzy and doing stuff. But sloooowly I’m starting to realize that it is the opposite. It’s only in the stillness, before God, when I lay my burdens and all my striving down, I find my strenght, true peace, rest, lightness, hope, joy, love and life.

”Come to me all you who are weary,
and I will give you rest.”
/Matthew 11:29 

THE GREATEST GIFT

”For God has proved his love by giving us his greatest treasure, the gift of his Son. And since God freely offered him up as the sacrifice for us all, he certainly won’t withhold from us anything else he has to give.”Romans 8:32

❤

”For this is how much God loved the world—he gave his one and only, unique Son as a gift.So now everyone who believes in him will never perish but experience everlasting life.”John 3:16

❤

God made it so simple that even children can believe. You need only to say ”Yes, I believe in you Jesus” Open your heart and recieve.

GRACE AND PEACE

”Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens,
your faithfulness to the skies.

Your righteousness is like the highest mountains,
your justice like the great deep.

You, Lord, preserve both people and animals.
How priceless is your unfailing love, O God!
People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

They feast on the abundance of your house;
you give them drink from your river of delights.

For with you is the fountain of life;
in your light we see light.”
Psalms 36

❤

When everything around me is shaking.
Your grace and peace covers me.
Fullness of mercy, kindness and love,
ever flowing from your heart.
Like streams of grace, pouring down on us.

DESERT FLOWER 

You lead me to the river
You restore my soul
Streams of living water
Bringing life
Life aboundant
Owerflowing
Owerwhelming

”The Lord will always lead you.
He will satisfy your needs in dry lands
and give strength to your bones.
You will be like a garden that has much water,
like a spring that never runs dry.”
Isaiah 58:11
❤
”Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”
John 4
