Nr. 489:
Grief - part al life - but it must and will not kill us. We must go on!
My father died Karl Johan Bjerregaard Christensen died 17 January, grief afterwards has been overwhelming, painful and also good. Here is a good picture of him shortly before he died. And the tombstone where he lies buried in the tomb famille where we come from, who I lived my first year Thyborøn in Denmark. It is at the entrance to the Limfjord in Jutland. There is also my grandparents on my father's side and buried most of my carnal relatives who have died. When we talk about those who have lived and died in my lifetime. Before then comes my family is actually from all over Europe. I 1 \ 4 Norwegian, the rest I am carnal seen from the rest of Europe. In Denmark, Holland and Spain as the countries kin mi come from both my mother's and father's side.
Psalm 84 7 When they walk through the valley of tears, they make it a source of enforcement, and the autumn rain covers it with blessings.
I've been hurt in the past year, but then gradually takes the pressure off! When my father was seriously ill for a good year ago, and the disease left him unable to handle birth to him, and when he died, all this loser than for enormous power, high spirits and spark of life. But then one must also get over it and on with life. But it's healthy, good and right to know the grief, loss and everything that has not been well.
We sing the song Aage Samuelsen: "I walk through the valley of tears does he (God) into a blessing." But this is not in the Word, where it says that we make it a BLESSING! Then in Psalm 84 verse seven. In other words, when we walk through the valley of tears, we make it a source of enforcement. Notice what it says in Psalm 84 It says that they do it. Citing parts of Psalm 84 7 again, "they walk through the valley of tears, they make it a source of enforcement."
It also depends on what we do but grief and when we go through the valley of tears. We can sit down and let it overwhelm us, or learn, expand our hearts and move on. The choice is actually ours.
There are those who turn almost put his sufferings and sorrows. It may be good for some time to grieve. But it should not be the standard for the rest of our lives. We can really only do two things is my experience. There are the following:
1. Adding everything in God's hands.
2. It is to put everything behind us to move forward. All this now I try to do with my family. Am happy intercession, dedication and all the support we have already received. It has been overwhelming both here in Oslo, Karmøy and Denmark. There is nothing that warms and doing well, it is after all to see as a big response and kindness from both God and man.
This is from my commentaries Philip Wiper letter 3 7 But as before were gain to me, I see now that a loss because of Christ.
Since Moses received the law ca. 1500 years before Paul had all Jews more or less wanted to get up on Paul's "level". But all this is in vain because he says one thing and a person. Jesus' atonement and Christ alone to own our hearts. There is nothing outside or alongside of him that can make us children of God and Christian living. It is and remains the only faith in Jesus.
8 Yes, I count everything as loss because of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, is so much more valuable. For his sake I have lost everything, and I see it as scrap that I may gain Christ
Paul embroider beyond. It's much everyone wants to achieve in this world and there is a lot one can do. And everything need not be negative. But if you have faith in Jesus or not? For his sake I have lost everything and nothing lets me keep believing in him and serve him alone. It is only the life and the faith that leads. Nothing could be juxtaposed against owning Christ.
9 and be him. Here I have my own righteousness, which the law provides, but the righteousness is through the faith of Christ, the one who is from God that depends on faith.
Paul speaks of this as being a citizen of a country or coming from a particular place; being in him. I am reminded of Psalm 87.6 When the Lord writes up the people, counting him and says, "Here's this born." 7 Then they sing and dance and say, "All my springs are in you.". The law provides a form of justice, even met the flesh. No one is able to follow it to the letter, yet some better than others (especially when one gets additional laws that the Pharisees and Jews even today, just look at kippen the head is not mentioned in the Bible).
The law is actually given for one thing, that we will realize and see that we are helpless, lost, sinners and transgressors. Rom.3. 20 For no man is justified by works of the law. By law we become conscious of sin. Act applies, but we manage never to follow and comply with legal requirements and commandments. It requires perfection, but it has no people.
10 And I know him and the power of his resurrection, to share in his sufferings and become like him when I die that he -
Knowing Jesus morning, noon and night, that's what the Christian life is about. Then we share in his resurrection power yet is suffering, and suffering to go with Jesus in this world. Jesus had a tough, unfair and ill treatment in this world and that the person who believes he can expect to get.
11 I just had to attain to the resurrection from the dead!
It aims Paul sluttfrelsen. It is a resurrection morning. One day we will see Jesus and be fully his equal, only we endure to the end. Resurrection morning can be in several phases. It is a resurrection at the beginning of 1000 årsriket. A ruling by the white throne, but for us is when Jesus comes in the air the sky and takes us to his house (1.Tess.4.13-18 and 1.Kor.15.50-57).
12 I do not mean that I have already reached this or were already perfect, but I press toward it to grab it, because I was caught by Christ Jesus.
When even Paul could say that he was not perfect, we can also say that. But he drove towards goal. We are mine in a spiritual marathon races most and not a 100 m How to reach the target and reach the goal in the best possible way? In Jesus we are saved and he will be the center of everything we do. We must simply live like Jesus, love like Jesus, etc.
13 Brethren, I do not think of myself that I've caught it. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reach for what is ahead,
The sluttfrelsen had he not intervened, it has not yet. It happens when we meet Jesus physically face to face. How important not to forget and forgive all that has been done. There are sometimes other people do not forget even if one has asked for forgiveness. But can a person forget and forgive themselves so I think it is more important than what others say and think. And we go out to meet the target, we see and move on.
14 and drives toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
Like being on a track sees Paul for the Christian life. Along the road is the wonderful and important experience, but the focus must not be disregarded. It is to reach the goal and crown around the head. There are no shortcuts or opportunities to cheat to reach. And it is a high calling. No one has a higher calling than us Christians. We have in mind: 2 Pet.3. 13 But according to his promise we wait for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
Final Comment: What more can I say? Something that I've learned through this is of importance to a halt in life. Take time for each other, now it's all over! Then it is too late. Say what you will say to the person of the day, expose it. Set up for people, diluted total your own family. And when something changes the contrary, it makes a can to correct it and pray for the person and the situation. We humans are all the same "boat" that requires grace and help of God. And it warmed and actually incredibly well to get as much care, warmth and love from people too, not just God!
1 Cor. 13. 13 But now abideth these three, faith, hope, love, and the greatest of these is love!
