First of Advent - Messiah is coming !

Dear Reader

Jesus came into Jerusalem riding on a donkey and people praised him as The Messiah. So many years later Jesus is still coming to each and everyone of us who invites him into our hearts. Now we start a 4 week celebration of the coming of Jesus; with joy that we can celebrate the birth of our savior. We need to remember how he came, how he lived, how he died and rose from the dead and how he is still moving in the hearts of you and me who invites him to be our savior.
When we look around in this crazy world we might say "Do something Lord, or we will perish!" But he has done something already.
For so God loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Jesus.
Sincerely Yours, Ida

Wherever I go; in forests, on mountains and in valleys; a friend follow me and I hear his voice ...


Dear reader,
The video is from a Swedish TV program called "Do you remember the song?"It aired between 1998-2000 and was the Swedish version of "Gaither homecoming".

Stuart Townend - Spirit of heaven - Christ in me



Spirit of heaven, flood over me
Forming Christ in all that I do
Turn every sinful desire in me
Into holy passion for You

O Spirit of God, come down
Let mercy and grace abound
My passionate prayer shall be
Christ in me

Spirit of beauty and holiness
Come refine with fire from above
Till I am cast in Your righteousness
And I love the things that You love

O Spirit of God, come down
Let mercy and grace abound
My passionate prayer shall be
Christ in me

Breathe Your forgiveness when darkness falls
And my heart is heavy with sin
Fill me with faith for the higher cause
Of the ceaseless praise of the King

O Spirit of God, come down
Let mercy and grace abound
My passionate prayer shall be
Christ in me
