REASONS TO SMILE


Sometimes during life we need to sit down & appreciate what we've got. We need to remember how to be grateful for small things as well as bigger things.. At times we smile for a reason, sometimes we dont.. but a smile comes from a deeper joy that is within us, & if we forget about what brings us joy we also throw away something too precious to loose. .. Yesss. That is your smile :)

DESPERATION

The world we live in has many desperate hearts...


Sometimes when we feel our desperation through our skin we find ways of expressing ourselves. Some stay quiet & let their deep hurt, or cry or desperation only be visible to themselves by hurting their own body, with marks from scissors, knives, and some choose starving, so on.. Others shout & yell and push everyone away from themselves. Some cry more. Some loose the ability of being engaged in their every day life

Our hearts are easily affected of what we feel, and hear and see. Rather than believe in what God says about us & our lives.

His word is our manual for life. His word is full of light. full of wisdom. & life. Just so that we can live extraordinary lives because He loves us, & then it gets so much easier to love ourselves, & the life He has given us.... as well as love others & be aware of the desperation people live in... As well as love God back . :)

I'm desperate to see God do major differences in a world that is full of heartaches, emptiness and hopelessness. as well as in my life.. and with my life.


What can we do to make a difference ?

AUTUMN IN STAVANGER

The colors are changing outside, its getting colder in the mornings and in the evenings.. Its raining. Too much. Staying inside with a cup of hot chocolate is getting more tempting for each day that goes by. Some like the fall because of the colors & the romantic feeling they sense comin at this time of year. Others hate the fall, especially those who live in Stavanger where the rain never stop falling. but during the visit from my sister this weekend, we've tried and catch all the beautiful moments that come with this season. :)

GOD IS ABLE

Sometimes we need someone to help us, or teach us about how to do life. Some days we really are desperate for encouragement & words of truth to be spoken into our lives. Some days get extraordinary because someone took the courage to give us that smile or hug & give us an extra sense of worth .


Some times.. we are desperate for even more than this


because some times life hits us hard & we are found in hopelessness..
Parts of my story, like so many others, is about darkness, hopelessness, frustration & emptiness, most likely how every human being experience at different times during life. but whatever circumstances you are found in God is there. Whatever your heart is carrying, or crying out for,


DON'T LOOSE HOPE


cause God is able.


" Wait for the Lord, be strong & take heart & wait for the Lord "

ONE reason to SMILE

Nehemiah said, " Go and enjoy food & sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength. "

HIGH HEELS

Intro Sisterhood gave an extraordinary girls night out to my friends & I at High Heels Party, allowing us to find our finest pair of high heels, let us walk the red carpet & let us be photographed at the entrance. They made us Tapas & chocolate dessert, gathering us for worship & fellowship. But as much as this night was fun, it also made us aware of the reality that so many ppl and girls are living in, caused by human trafficking. It is todays fastest growing crime with 27 million slaves, 80 % of them bein woman and children. I'm grateful to know about these facts because a lot of people aren't. We need to be aware of the injustice that defines this world, but we also need to talk out loud, & be a voice for those who cannot speak up for themselves.
