The time is now!

I'm high on God!If you don't know him, try him out...don't miss out on THE GREATEST OF ALL!

The battle line is drawn, it's all in black and white.
Hope is pulling forward, can feel it from behind, it's time.
It's time to make a move, so what will you decide?
The clock is ticking on, don't let it pass you by, it's time.
It's time to make a stand, to put your heart in greater hands,
from your skin, to your core,
Let light, and love, come rushing through the door.
- Phil Wickham

New city: Uppsala

“Where are you from?” might be the most common question that I’ve been asked the last couple of days…Yes, indeed I’ve done my first week at Johannelunds Teologiska Högskola(JTH) and I love it. The school seems to be goodish and likewise my classmates. I realize that this is going to be two years of hard core studies and there will be a lot of life changing moments, good and bad. Even though there’s a lot of new impressions at the moment, I’m constantly tired (still sick) and I have to unpack my stuff , I know this is where I am supposed to be. I AM AT PEACE! There’s no greater feeling than knowing that I am where God wants me to be. I know it’s not going to be lightsome all the time, but I know I’m never alone and it’s all going to work out fine, because I am where I am suppose to be!

Final countdown

Yes indeed, I only have four days left of work before me and a bunch of my relatives (22 ppl) are going to Tunisia. It's going to be outrageously sick and unbelievable fun. We're going to have a blast! I CAN'T WAIT!!!

Back in Umeå

After a five week break, I'm back in Umeå for work. Even though my holiday is over I can't say that summer is...the best is yet to come! My time off work/school has been both relaxing and busy, I've been to Umgransele, Lappis, Stockholm and Norway. Pics from Norway and Umgransele might show up eventually, but not now!

Btw, I can't bother to clean my flat knowing that I'm moving in a few weeks and that a new chapter in life will begin. I'm so excited to step into it and see what plans God has for me there :)

Ps 4:8
In peace I will lie down and sleep,
for you alone, Lord,
make me dwell in safety.

Relax

"Relax, everything's going to be all right; rest, everything's coming together; open your hearts, love is on the way!"

Jude 1:2 (RT Bible)

The past, present and future.

The past

Hillsong, Australia

The present

Umeå, My family

and the future.

My house to be

This weekend has been good. The past, present and future met up in Stockholm and Uppsala. I got pretty sentimental at the Hillsong United concert, I do not wish to move back to Sydney but I do love the church a lot. It's not a perfect church, but it is my second home for sure! After the concert I went to Uppsala to look at my house to be, hanged with my cousins and my youngest sis. We had a great time together.

Thursday, friday.

I'm so excited for tomorrow because my sister graduates from highschool, I'm going to Stockholm at a Hillsong United concert and on friday I'm going to Uppsala to look at my soon to be house.



Tear down the walls see the world
Is there something we have missed?
Turn from ourselves
Look beyond
There is so much more than this

And I dont need to see it to believe it
I dont need to see it to believe it
Cause I cant shake this
Fire deep inside my heart

No obligations

Today's my first official summerbreak day, and I am destined to do nothing!
'Cause it's summer
Summer time is here
Yes it's summer
My time of year
Yes it's summer
My time of year'
- War

It wasn't love but it's over now!

Okay, maybe I'm being too harsh (referring to the title) but I am pretty glad that school is over. Not that it has been tough, not at all. It's just that I'm looking forward to move to Uppsala, meet a new class, new friends, new house etc. When I wrote the title two songs slipped into my head:
Det är över nu and It must have been love (I just realize that Per Gessle wrote the lyrics to both the songs, hehe). If you bother to listen to them, listen with a relieved heart...that's what I intend to do :D (at least today).

I can't wait for this week to be over,

because then I'm off school and I don't start my summerjob until 4th of July= I AM FREE FOR FOUR WEEKS :)

I wanna breathe and live in worship and awe!

Ain't nobody come in between me and God

There ain't nothing that can't be done
By me and God
Ain't nobody come in between me and God
One day we'll live together
Where the angels trod
Me and God

He's my Father
He's my friend
The beginning
And the end
He rules the world
With a staff and rod
We're a team
Me and God
- Josh Turner

Me and my guitar

I just bought a guitar, I haven't played in 6 years and I don't even know if that was called playing! Anyways...it's time to start playing again!

Seize the day

Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow.
It only drains today of its joy.

Crap!

I just missed out the only thing I really wanted to see at Kulturnatta because I thought it started 17.30 not 16.30...it makes me sad :(

Finally...

Summer has arrived!

There's none like You!

In and out of season!

This weekend has been fun and challenging! Without my knowledge I was set to be the worshipleader at a conference here in Umeå, Thursday-Saturday. The thing is that the girl who was supposed to lead had never lead worship before. Since I was in the worshipteam I got signed to lead. The team and I practiced for the first time on Wednesday, that’s when I got the task(which at first freaked me out), and then I/we lead the worship-sessions during this long weekend. Even though it was chaos during practice and none of us had ever played together in the past, it all worked out fine. The presence of God was strong and I realize how fundamental it is to never get comfortable in your calling...you never know what God has planned for you to do. It's important to always keep you head high and be close to Him. You never know when you will be challenged to step up in a season where you haven’t planned to serve or be challenged…be prepared to serve, in and out of season!

Oh summer where art thou?

This is what I want...


...this is what I get!

Welcome home!

This is my grandpa who died in the beginning of march this year (almost 92 yrs old). He was such a great man of God and a role model to me and a lot of other people. Through all the good and bad times he continued to walk with God and in his calling, being a pastor. I know he's enjoying the life he's living now, a life in heaven with Big Daddy God, and he will come and greet me in 6-7 decades by the gates of heaven :)

Uppsala!

I have a house(100 square meters and a basement recreation room!)in Uppsala, and I'm moving there in three months. The greatness and love of God is Indescribable. If you knew how hard it is to find a flat in Uppsala you would understand what I am talking about. I didn't even have to look for a flat(it's not like you even try to find a house there) before this house came to me! God KNOWS what I want and need long before I even tell Him.
The house is close to my school, close to the city and the rent is surmountable.
GOD LOVES ME!

My connect group is the best ever! Just so you all know...

The power of Your name!

Surely life wasn't made to regret
And the lost were not made to forget
Surely faith without action is dead
Let Your Kingdom come
Lord break this heart

And I will live to carry your compassion
To love a world that's broken
To be your hands and feet
And I will give with the life that I've been given
And go beyond religion to see the world be changed
By the power of Your Name
The power of Your Name
- Lincoln Brewster, Mia Fieldes

Eagle's wings

Here I am waiting
Abide in me I pray
Here I am longing
For You

Hide me in Your love
Bring me to my knees
May I know Jesus
More and more

Come live in me
All my life take over
Come breathe in me
And I will rise
On eagles' wings

How I long to feel that summer in my heart!

This weekend: Stockholm and Bounce!

Advice.

I really cannot give you the formula for success.
But I can give you the formula for failure.
It’s this: Try to please everyone!
