I have been watching Roger reading new comments on his blog today. That has been a wonderful experience to observe him enjoying the feedback he is receiving. It was awesome to see the profound effect the comments had on my friend.

I am getting feedback, therefore I am!
To be somebody is to express oneself and having feedback
– from those who read or listen to us
– from those who observe and touch us
To be somebody is to interact with others
– because you love people
It is to communicate because you care
And staying connected because of the worth you find in others
The joy of being read
– is the knowledge that others take time with you
The excitement of having comments
– is the feeling that others take you serious
The thrill of getting feedback
– is the sense of being connected
To be somebody is being intoxicated
– by feeling of being in touch with the World
– the feeling of crossing borders
– the joy of breaking down barriers
– the excitement of getting rid of your own limitations
Being enabled to communicate
To people close to you and those from far parts of the world

Our destiny lies in our origin
I have found great joy and comfort in the simple fact stated in the title of this entry! The entire universe has its origin in God and will find its full destiny in him only!
Every human being is creative to enjoy God and bring him glory. Everyone can find its destiny in God our Creator!

Roger arrived on time!
I have just been to the airport receiving my friend Dr. Roger Aubrey. He will be teaching at Bergen Bibelskole this week. He came by KLM with the same connection that I was supposed to have on Friday! He had no problems! He arrived on time! Good for KLM!

Stranded in Schipol, Amsterdam
Yesterday morning I had a wonderful time again with the students at the School of the Word in Cardiff. Roger took me to the airport and I was longing to go home to my beautiful and loving wife. But I didn’t reach home that night! I only arrived home today!

Reproduction of bloggers
The few comments I have given about blogging while I have been in Wales seem to have been very fruitful. As I have already mentioned earlier several people have started their own blog during these days. My friend Roger Aubrey has even started two blogs! He is blogging on Blogspot and on Typepad!
His son James has also started his own blog! It seems like I have succeeded in reproducing myself as a blogger. To me the big question is if there has been any spiritual reproduction through my ministry. Only time will show!

Profettenesta
I Bibelen finn vi mange ord og nemningar som skildrar profettenesta. Desse skildringane og titlane hjelper oss å forstå den profetiske tenesta!

Releasing creativity
To be somebody is releasing creativity in people around you
Helping them to leave the boring life of status quo
Launching out to explore the exciting life of creative adventures
The adventure of expressing themselves
In words and motions
In dance and drama
In oral or written form
In black and white and sparkling colours
Using pens and brushes, hands and feet
To unleash the impulses of their inner being
When you help people to be themselves
And to dare to express what they feel on the inside
Helping them to tap into the limitless reservoir
Of creative ideas deep down in their own heart
Then you really are somebody
For you are helping people to become a creative somebody

The grace of God at work
We have had a wonderful time at the School of the Word today as well. The grace of God has been manifested among us and people are being blessed! It has been a great joy to minister to the students and to fellowship with them in the breaks.
My friend Akinola has started a new blog which is nice and different from the one he started yesterday. He calls his blog Un-veil and it is all about un-veiling the glory of Christ. I am convinced that we will find a lot of interesting stuff on his blog in days to come.
Caleb, another student has also started to blog! He calls himself a Landtaker!

Red paper hearts
Everyday I have been away I have found red paper hearts with lovely words from my wife! These red paper hearts have been hidden in my shirts and my underwear. Solveig has a wonderful way of expressing her love through the nice words she is writing on these red paper hearts! What a wonderful start of a new day! Hearts filled with love from my wife! What a wonderful wife God has given me!
