Amazing.

Since last blog entrance things have been
suddenly moving fast forward and i am just
sitting here and wondering what actually is happening.
Well, along everything else, God intervened
and made all things new aka he took my dreams
and plans, shook them around and organised
them in whole different way which i hadn't
even dreamt of.
I know it doesn't make much sense, i have no
idea what is going on, but the bottom line
is that God is good, and
next, i'm going to "Home".
After a long, almost unbearable season of waiting,
i have jumped, i'm on the air and
looking forward to land on Father's arms.

Why?

...God's answer to Job's archetypal cry of "Why?" is simply, "Look at Me" (see Job 38-41). "My ears have heard of you but now my eyes have seen you," cries Job in awe, as if his sufferings have simply evaporated (42:5). The book of Job is threrefore both the most frustrating and enlightening treatment of unanswered prayer in the Bible, because God's solution to so much misery is merely and ultimately to reveal His greatness.

* glimpse *

nauraa silmät viiruina
hutunkeittoa tämä elämä
jokin äänessäsi
vain rohkaisi minua
hyppäämään

vaikka jossen koskaan enää mitään
niin sinä olet
siellä jossakin
ja uimme yhdessä
vastavirtaan
