How high are Your thoughts?
How deep is Your love?
How far are You able to reach?
How mighty are You?
How great is Your name?
How big are Your dreams for me?
How bright is Your light?
How real is Your touch?
How patient are You?
How long last your mercy?
How close can You get?
How meek is your heart?
How sweet is Your kiss?
How faithful are You above all?
You are higher
You are greater
You are better
You are brighter
You are sweeter
You are deeper
You are closer
You are more
You are
Let me long
Let me see
Let me hear
Let me feel
Let me understand
Let me touch
Let me breath
Let me know You, God
Let me know You, God
That’s all I need

surrender
I've never been so secure in Gods love than I am now. I've never known so much about Him, or experienced more of His goodness. I've never known so many truths about Christ and who I am in Him. His word has never been more alive for me than it is right now. I've never had more revelations about the Father, or heard His voice clearer. I've never trusted Him so fully or loved Him so deeply. Still I sometimes find myself thinking thoughts like; is God real? who am I? who is God? what happens if I just end my life today?
I know where theese thoughts come from. And as long as I want to follow Jesus with all I am, I will face resistance. If you're not bumping your head into the evil one, means you are running the same direction.. Jesus ask us to SURRENDER ALL TO HIM. So simple. So huge. So difficult. That is the biggest thing in life. and the thing the enemy are most afraid of. Because that will glorify God on earth. that will make a difference that will last forever.
I am greatest when I am on my knees, and have totally surrendered all to You my King.

Mae Ra Moe
It's raining like crazy. In front of us only deep clay. Surrounded by jungle. Oh, it's the road. The driver is optimistic. Faith can move mountains. Faith can digg a way with it's own hands into the refugee camp. Faith never gives up. We are wet into the bones. The ass hurts. But who cares, we are there. A lot of people. Happy people. I wonder what stories that are hiding behind the smiling eyes. We cross the river. Finally we can sit down on the bamboo floor. The smoke is intens, but it keeps away the huge crowds of mosquito. It's dark in the house made of bamboo, but we have some candles. The rain still falls on the roof made of leaves. He tells me his name. He is the same age as me. He used to live with his family in Karen state in Burma. He worked on the ricefields. But the Burmeese came. They burned down their village. They raped the girls. They killed his friends while he was watching. He speaks slowly. He and his family ran out in the jungle. They stayed there, hiding, for one year. They got sick. His sister died. They did'n have much food. They lived in fear. His smiling eyes covers the pain. It's ten years ago now. The rafugee camp has become his home. I can never understand. I can't even try to imagine the depth of the suffering that sorrounds me. But I can listen to this boy in front of me. I can cry some of his tears, and I can pray God to heal his broken heart.

the joy of the Lord is our strength
You don't know what real joy is before you walk the streets of Africa. Before you go to the orphanage, and find the children that has lost everything in this world. They are so small, and still they know how it is to be hungry, and don't have anything to eat. They know how painful it is to loose those you love the most. But in those little children you find faith. joy. dance. smiles. laughter. thanksgiving to God because He has given them life, and He has promised to go with them every day. You don't know what joy is before you see the smiling face of the young boy who couldn't walk because his feet was burnt, now playing football together with the other children. Hope. You don't know what joy is before you enter the church Sunday morning and find a nation that is singing and dancing for the Lord who is everything they need. A people that has understood a fundational truth, that THE JOY OF THE LORD IS OUR STRENGTH... May the Lord give our nation freedom to rejoice in Him! Amen

Today I just want to go to heaven. I don't want to live one more day in this crappy world. Full of shit. Filled with evil. Suffering. Hatred. Egoism. Bitterness. Pain. War. Poverty. Indifference. Pride...
I just want to run away from everything. Run away from all the stupid rutines, traditions, strive for no reason. All the things that keep us from living our lives in fellowship with God and each other. I want to run away from all the unwritten rules about who I should be, and who I should not be. Tired of being placed in a box. Tired of allowing people to place me in that box...
I want to run away from this world's mindset. Why are people so surprised when you give away a little love?
God didn't intend the world to be like it is. It is not God's will that children are starving, that small girls are being raped, and that the rest of the world close their eyes and pretend that they don't see... But He sends me and you, so that we can be in this world and show His love..
The LIGHT that is in us, is GREATER than the darkness of this world...

Intimacy...
Who do I serve?
Who do I try to please?
When will I realise that to serve myself does not make me happy.. When will understand that I can never meet the deepest need in other peoples heart, only God's love can do that.. When will I know that intimacy with the heart of my Father is the key to live a life in victory..
To be intimate.
To hear His voice.
To touch His heart.
To feel His love. For me. For others.
To share everything with Him.
To cry with Him. Laugh and dance with Him. Sing to Him. And listen when He sings to me.
To let Him hold me in His arms, and give me all that He is...
Is it posible? To be intimate with the Almighty God?
Is't up to you..
I love Him because He loved me first.

Know your identity.
Who are you? Who am I? Who I am, or who I believe I am, is what I build my life upon. Do I put my identity in myself? someone else? or do I put my identity in Jesus Christ? What is the fundation in my life? What was Jesus' fundation? The first thing Jesus was told by His Father before He started His minestry was "This is my SON, in whom I am well pleased" or in other words; this is my son, whom I LOVE. That was Jesus' fundation. He needed to know who He was, and that He was loved. So do I. So do we. The most important thing I can ever get a hold of, is that I am God's daugther, and He loves me. Not because I am lovable, but because God is love. As long as I put my identity in myself, I will never succed. I need a revelation of who I am in Jesus.. Do you?
