A song of Jonah

I went the other way

though I knew I was wrong.

I loved my rebellion

And stubbornly went on.

The storm came

why had I no fear?

I knew you were ruler

of sun, land, wind and sea

Death seemed sweet to me

my rebellion cost me much

Yet my heart was still proud

and I was still sure I was just

You turned it around

your anger lasted a moment

but your love is eternal

and I received it with joy

I hoped they'd be stubborn

I hoped to the end.

But they turned on day one

the king acknowledged his sin

Why do you love so?

They certainly don't deserve it

Why do you care so?

They never lent you a thought

Yet I see my reflection

and all I see is them

The vine was my joy,

I understood your love, then

Oh, how you love me

Oh, how you love them

Oh, how you love us

Regardless of our sin

Sometimes you don't know what you need until you receive it.

Late lunch

Late lunch.

Working overtime

People are on their way out,

I am on my way home..

So many wars

So much fear

So small

Too selfish

- thoughts after watching 'Donbass' and hearing director Segei Loznitsas share about the forgotten conflict in Ukraine.

Autumn 🍁

[swesud]

God cares

Friday: feeling down after the week and I get an unexpected sms :)

The day before: too much to do, how will I cope? Then an engagement cancelled and time to do dishes!

The day before that: one delayed the other hungry. Change of plans and all more relaxed.

And before that: a spontaneous meal-fika-meet-up :)

So much I forget of Gods kindness and faithfulness ❤

"After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper." 1 Kings 19:12

A bad day, yet joy

The first 6 minutes I didn’t feel cold waiting for the blue line subway towards Kungsträdgården. (I was "boiling")

Yet, whatever is true, noble and praisworthy, think on these things..

Winter wonderland. So grateful for God's creation. Nature's power is always awe-inspiring. "God saw all that he had made, and it was very good."

... Sweden on a Saturday night..

I much prefer noisy, hand-clapping, drum-beating, song-singing sobre youths to talkative, “social”, clapping and complaining middle-aged users of excessive amounts of alcohol … :/

Autumn to winter

The birds are fleeing, I hear them screech The light is waning, and still I am here

War

young men.                  young women..

Death.

Torture. Pain.

What do I know. what can I understand.

Then back.

To what. where. how. who

Death. what life?
