For more than 20 years I have been using til Typepad plattform for my blog, but now I have migrated to WordPress. I thought that Typepad was a secure foundation to build my blogging life on, but unfortunately it turned out to not be a lasting plattform.
Changing from Typepad to WordPress is like getting a new foundation, new ways of operating and doing things. I have had to start from scratch to learn how this plattform functions and how to learn to use features and possibilities that come with building your life on a new foundation.
Typepad was not a lasting plattform. No one knows how long WordPress will be a secure foundation. However, I found a much better and more reliable foundation for my life. This secure foundation has been trusted and found working for many generations be me. My blogging life is just a small part of my life, therefore I need a bigger and better foundation to build my entire life on.
Since I was a young teenager Jesus Christ has been the foundation of my life. Now I am 82 years old, and this foundation is still working very well. I need no other plattform to build my life on. In my lifetime som many changes have taken place, but Jesus Christ has remained faithful, He is the unchanging foundation of my life because he is the only unchanging person. He is the same, righteous, holy, loving, and faithful person yesterday, today and for ever. I know I can trust him.

Collision of worldviews
Collision of worldviews
There is a war going on. It is a brutal war. In fact, all wars are brutal in one way or another. But this ongoing war that we are witnessing today, is a very brutal one. There are many victims in this war. Many people are being hurt. Innocent people are suffering in this ongoing conflict.
The war is raging in Gaza and Ukraine, as well as in USA and Europe. There are terrible conflicts causing millions of refugees to flee for their lives in Africa and Asia as well. My heart is bleeding for all those who are suffering from violence and injustice.
The ongoing war of worldviews is in many ways invisible, but recently it became very visible through the killing of Charlie Kirk. I must admit that I had never heard of him before the news about his death. The way it was presented in the Norwegian media was a wakeup call to me. Trough the main media he was portrait as a racist and a wright wing extremist. He was compared to Anders Behring Breivik, a Norwegian terrorist that killed 69 people a few years ago. Then I discovered that young Christians, born again believers, as well as young conservative politicians, said he was a hero. Some people rejoiced in the fact that he was dead, but a lot of young people was mourning in shock to the killing.
A collision of worldviews was taken place before my eyes. Then I realised, it is not only a collision, it is a war of worldviews. A Christian humanistic worldview versus a secular, illiberal and hedonistic worldview. Prolife and pro human dignity versus killing of babies and of those who do not conform with the secular belief or correct political opinions.
It is time to wake up. It is time for action. We need to stand up for truth and love. We must promote peace and understanding. Righteousness and justice will prevail and overcome hate and evil in all forms.
