… soon, it’s the most wonderful time of the year!!

I love Christmas and Christmas is really catching up on us. (or the other way around…?)

This morning there was snow on the ground when I woke up. Makes me smile. Makes my whole day smile! =D

Thank you Lord for snow! And thank you for Christmas. For love and joy and mercy.

 

Sudden changes November 22, 2007

It seems like just when you think things are never going to change, they really do.
A few weeks ago I got to know that Leon is moving away from Turku. Now I believe I will be moving too before christmas!
The reason is that we will spend a few months in the spring in Kenya, Nakuru, volunteering at a children’s home. (bethesda.se) And before that we will be preparing for that time. That would leave mewith about two weeks during which I could study here. Not much point in that…
But we’ll be back next fall!
I guess I could write a bit more about all this, but at the moment it’s still too new for me and there is so much to think about.

Banana, you’ll do just fine! =D

A whisper in my soul November 5, 2007

Filed under: Jerseystaan — jennyjersey @ 3:53 pm

Say to my soul,
“I am your salvation.”

I love these lines from Psalm 35.
I know I do not totaly understand the miracle of salvation. And perhaps, I will never fully know what it really is, until I cross that river. But I still pray this, that God would reveal something of this mystery of grace. I want to know His ache for us and His love for us. I want to know in my soul that He is the one who has saved me and risen me up from the grave. And I wish that this knowledge would go from my head into my heart and soul.

Pour you Spirit on me Lord, so that I may know: You are my salvation!
