Long Friday --> Good Friday

2005-03-25T16:46:00.000+01:00

In Norwegian we call this day Long Friday and think about how hard and long it was for Jesus. Many of you call it Good Friday, because what Jesus did this day was good for us. Together they make a whole.

The last weeks I've been posting pictures on my photoblogA Farmer's Child's Tales from my trip to South Africa. The last two of those pictures is from Shobashobane and now I will tell some more about what happened there 25th of December 1995.It was our third day in SA, everything was still a little overwhelming - but we were starting to adjust. Some of us was out on the sea fishing for shark (!)

I'm a little slow at learning; have just recently discovered that my pc makes a good DVD player.... :D I have no DVD-player attacked to my TV, but now I can watch DVD's still ;) Since Sunday I've seen: "The Day after Tomorrow" and "The Incredibles". The films are really different (!) but I liked them both. Next on the list is maybe "The Passion of the Christ", but I think I will see that one

Sunday Quote

2005-03-20T15:40:00.000+01:00

Today is Palm Sunday the day where the crowd greeted Jesus at Jerusalems gate when he came riding in on a donkey. They greeted him like a king, laid out branches and clothes on the road and shouted: Hosanna! (= give salvation). They never thought he would do it the way he did!The day before he was a visitor at his friends house in Bethany. There Mary poured nard over him. The whole house smelled

Terri Schiavo

2005-03-19T21:02:00.000+01:00

I'm terrible late with this post; but I post it anyhow. The last weeks I've been reading a lot of blogs about Terri Schiavo and the ruling of taking away her intravenous given food so she'll starve to death. I don't know anything about this other than what I've been reading on other blogs. But it seems like a bad idea to let her die in this manner, even though it can't have been an easy decision

Sorry of the lack of postings lately; there just has been so much else - and a hand who needed rest... But I feel better know ;)Yesterday my house was filled with young people again. Every so often I invite the teenagers, in the area I'm pastor, from age 15/16 and above. We talk, make dinner and eats, sometimes we watch TV, other times we just talk some more... They usually stay from 8 pm to 12

This Sunday is the third one in Lent. This is a Sunday which talks about the demons and how Jesus conquer them and make them flee. The texts' are not the easy ones, but to me this is the most important message:But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you.The whole reading can be found at Luke 11:14-23Wish you a good Sunday!

Snow - again

2005-02-10T09:33:00.000+01:00

Can you believe it? We got snow again tonight! Not that much actually, not even enough to cover the ground - but still snow. And I who shall drive over the mountain this weekend..... Hope it stops today! I'm off for a long day (not starting until 10 am though =>). First there is a meeting for all the pastors in this area, then we shall plan a weekend for the youths attending confirmation classes

Daily read for Lent - 2

2005-02-10T09:26:00.000+01:00

Thursday Psalm 37:1-18 (am)Deut 7:6-11; Titus 1:1-16; John 1:29-34Psalm 37:19-42 (pm) I will tell you a little story from some years ago. I was on a trip with a group of youths attending confirmation class, one of the leaders asked me if he was aloud to learn the youths a verse from the Bible and I said: "Of course! Do your best." And so he did! We repeated the verse after him several time,

The Human Clock

2005-02-10T00:24:00.000+01:00

I've spent most of the evening surfing the net; relaxing and enjoying my self for the most part. On my way through I found a link to The Human Clock. Here all the minutes in an 24-hour day has got their own picture (some of them have several) taken by people from around the world. Many of the pictures show people holding sheets with the time written on them, others have time written in the sand

Daily read for Lent 1

2005-02-09T23:40:00.000+01:00

This Lent I decided to catch up on my Biblereading! Each morning I'll post the Bible texts for the day. Then later in the day I will try to post some small thoughts about the daily reading. Ash Wednesday Psalm 95Psalm 32Psalm 143Jon 3:1-4:11Heb 12:1-14Luke 18:9-14Psalm 102Psalm 130 Two thing jumped at me today: 1. The word of the tax collector: ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’ 2. Gods love

The best place for me to live..

2005-02-09T01:00:00.000+01:00

...if I ever decided to move to USA! A few days ago I found this fun place to search after the right spot for me (or you) to live in USA. I have no plans to move over there - but you'll never know what happen some few years from now! And I thought it was fun to know where to take a vacation too ;o) I had fun playing and answered the question as correctly as I could. This is the places that I'm

Lent

2005-02-08T21:25:00.000+01:00

For a little while I've been thinking of how to use my Lent. Usually I give up a thing I like and give the cost of it to our Church Aid. This years thing is SWEETS(!) It won't be easy; but neither was Jesus dying..... And there is a reward for my health applied! This year I also wanted a reason to read the Bible other than the obvious: It's my job! ;) I've been dreading setting up a plan for the

The room is taken!

2005-02-08T18:42:00.000+01:00

A while back I told you about the congregations search for a room which the children and youth could use. (There is no extra rooms in the church and our offices are close by but not in the church). Today we used the room for the first time; 9 children and 3 leaders. It was so cold - I couldn't get the electricity to function - but still so great to be in our own room. Now we are full of ideas

Notarius Publicus seal

2005-02-07T22:16:00.000+01:00

Today I visited the courthouse and got my signature witnessed and a "Notarius Publicus" seal on my adoption document. I don't usually have much buisniss in a courthouse and this was my first visit ever, I think. But last time I tried to get a seal on my documents I got it all wrong so this time I dared nothing else than going for the top :) A few hours later the documents was on their way by mail

Sunday Quote

2005-02-06T18:15:00.000+01:00

Again my sermon and service was rotated around the Bible; but this was the last time :o) Quite ok for me, it gets tiring to talk about the same thing every time! So here I want to give you a quote from the text that belongs to this last Sunday before Lent. We call the day Fastelavn søndag; I have no idea how to translate this other than the last word means Sunday(!) When I was growing up this was

Beautiful Sunset

Nothing like a beautiful sunset. This one taken out of my window (yes you can see it =>) a couple of minutes ago! Thought I wanted to share :o)

Oh I love these days, when there really is no important things to do (or very few..) and I end up doing a little bit of that and a little bit of that! But not much of anything, except for being on www that is ;) I've surfed around for a while, started to plan the left side on my blog - I need some changes there (something about what comes first and last and so on). I've had a visitor, which mean

Appetizer - If you were a dog, what breed would you be, and why? I would be a "Greenland dog" or maybe better known as Husky (?) because it is a dog who can survive very tuff climates... Soup - What does the color purple make you think of? It is one of my all time favorite colors; it just makes me feel good and relaxes me! Salad - Approximately how long does it take you to get ready each

A little minute to my self...

2005-02-04T19:26:00.000+01:00

I'm steeling a little minute to my self; the youths who has been here the last hours found that they had to go out and by some candy. Soon others will join them and the rest of this day will be filled with talk, smile and making dinner together. I do this once a month (or close to it) as a place to be for teenagers above 15 year. It is a nice thing and I usually have a really good time together

New design..

2005-02-03T09:57:00.000+01:00

I have had some help from Mia at 'Bella designing my blog. There is still some things to sort out, but hope that everything works out fine soon ;) Let me know how you like it! An update on my Grandmother: She is out of surgery and was sleeping this morning my mother told me. They said everything was fine. So I am glad, seems like I am going to speak with her after all in a few weeks on my trip

In a glimpse of an eye..

2005-02-02T23:28:00.000+01:00

I was in the last part of preparing for my meeting with parents (of some youths attending confirmation classes) - on the south side, when my phone rang. I saw it was my mum and knew that something was not right. I heard it in her voice immediately. And I feared the worst. It turned out to be not quite as bad as I feared, but still I felt terrible for a while and sorry for my grandmother. She

I'm not sure, but will make a contact with support tomorrow if the "installation-bit" still makes error-messages tomorrow. Well: I got to have a hobby ;) Mine is blogging for the time being, and I just wanted to

A colorful text with a unusual picture of Jesus; now he present himself like more than a human being. He is God. No wonder

Today the sun is shining at my place. I've spent the hole day at office trying to find a smart and timeeffective way of mesuring hour spent on different activities (not an easy job - I'll tell you that =>) I have not been much outdoor since this morning, but had to take some pictures. Just to show that the sun acctually does shine here too ;)

I needed a new perspective..

2005-01-27T16:52:00.000+01:00

So now I've turned my office up side down. It was no easy job; the desk is big and the room cramped with furniture (or it felt like it for a little while!) My coworkers will think I'm crazy, but this actually helps me think :) And that's what's count isn't it?? What is your most crazy move of furniture????

When I came home tonight I saw a rerun of Seventh Heaven (as always) while eating some kind of dinner. After nine I've been here - jumping around, trying to answer my comment and visit some new sites and some old

As you might have guessed I have my hands on a digital camera these days ;) I don't own it, but I am trying to learn how to use it. The camera is for the church letter and more, so I will be using it later on as well. This is from my town earlier today. It is still cold and the snow is still with us. It has been no sun though! I've spent the whole day at office working with and on my computer
