FREEDOM

FREEDOM!🙌

”The angel said to the women, ’Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.

He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.'”

/Matthew 28:5-6

”I breathe the air of freedom in knowing my life is better off in Your hands,

The past is gone, what’s done is done,

Now I’m alive.

And I’m never gonna look back,

I can never be, never be, free without you,

I can never be, never be, me without you.

This is the sound of chains breaking,

This is the beat of a heart changing,

This is a song of a soul forgiven,

This is my freedom hymn!

Who the Son sets free

Is free indeed

I’m free, oh!”

/Lyrics by Austin French, The freedom hymn

JESUS MY SAVOUR

J E S U S, my saviour ❤

”You bared your wrists to the nails

Your brow to the thorns

Surrendered, gave it all

Took the cup to your lips

And drank to the dregs

The judgement meant for me

Oh the deep deep love

Oh the cleansing blood

Mercy measureless and free

O be still and know, that all is well the cross has spoken

So here I lay down my shame

My pride and my pain

Surrender, leave it all

One with You I have died

With You I will rise

To everlasting day”

/The cross has spoken, Songs from the soil

”But God proves his love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us.”

/Romans 5:8

”I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch them out of my hand.”

/John 10:28

DESERT FLOWER

DESERT FLOWER🌸💦
Like rain in a thirsty and dry land.
You refresh my soul.

In your presence I come alive,
I FLOURISH.

”He shall come down like rain upon the grass before mowing,
Like showers that water the earth.
In His days the righteous shall flourish,
And abundance of peace,
Until the moon is no more.”
Psalms 72:6-7

🌸💦
”The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad, the desert shall rejoice and blossom;
like the crocus, it shall blossom abundantly,
and rejoice with joy and singing.”

”For waters shall break forth in the wilderness,
and streams in the desert;
the burning sand shall become a pool,
and the thirsty ground springs of water;”
Isaiah 35:1, 6

DO NOT FEAR

DO NOT FEAR…
”…for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.
For I am the Lord your God,
the Holy One of Israel, your Savior”

/Isaiah 43:1-3

”My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
/2 Corinthians 12

”The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
/Deuteronomy 31:8 

MY SOUL LONGS FOR YOU

THE LONGING 💜

”God, you are my God;
I earnestly search for you.
My soul thirsts for you;
my whole body longs for you
in this parched and weary land
where there is no water.

I have seen you in your sanctuary
and gazed upon your power and glory.
Your unfailing love is better than life itself;
how I praise you!

I will praise you as long as I live,
lifting up my hands to you in prayer.
You satisfy me more than the richest feast.
I will praise you with songs of joy.

I lie awake thinking of you,
meditating on you through the night.
Because you are my helper,
I sing for joy in the shadow of your wings.
I cling to you; your strong right hand holds me securely.”

Psalm 63

MY PEACE IN THE STORM

When the storm is raging around me,

I’m not alone.

You hear me when I call.

You surround me.

Your love is casting out all my fear.

Anxiety has no hold of me.

Your peace fills my heart,

a peace that calms every storm in me.

🤍

”God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.

God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.

…Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”

Psalms 46

”My soul, wait in stillness, only for God—

from Him comes my salvation.

He alone is my rock and my salvation,

my fortress—I will never be moved.”

Psalms 62

YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN

When you call, while you wait for an answer,

remember; you are not forgotten.

God hears your sighs, He sees your tears,

He hears you when you call.

He enclose you in His arms and carry you through the storm.

”In my alarm I said,

“I am cut off from your sight!”

Yet you heard my cry for mercy

when I called to you for help.”

/psalms 31:22

❤

”Though the Lord is exalted, he looks kindly on the lowly;

though lofty, he sees them from afar.

Though I walk in the midst of trouble,

you preserve my life.

You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes;

with your right hand you save me.

The Lord will vindicate me;

your love, Lord, endures forever—

do not abandon the works of your hands.”

/Psalms 138

❤

”On the day I called to you, you answered me. You made me strong and brave.”

Ps 138

❤

”The Lord is near to all who call on him,

to all who call on him in truth.

He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them.”

/Psalms 145:18-19

Älskad

Så glad och ”over the moon” tacksam över att ha fått vara med på Konstfesten i Habo. Så många underbara människor jag fått träffa!😍

Här är senaste målningen som hittat sitt ”forever home”. Med budskap om att du är så högt älskad, så dyrbar att Jesus gav sitt liv för att få lära känna dig. (Joh 3:16❤)

Och Guds frid, mitt i omständigheterna och över alla omständigheter.

”Frid lämnar jag efter mig åt er. Min frid ger jag er. Inte ger jag er en sådan frid som världen ger. Låt inte era hjärtan oroas och var inte modlösa.”

Äkta frid.🕊

(Joh 14:27❤)
