essens fra 2009

jesu fødsel

"Jeg (Gud) vil
lægge nøglen til
Davids hus på hans skulder;
og når han lukker op,
skal ingen lukke i,
og når han lukker i,
skal ingen lukke op."
Esajas 22, 22

...

... ... ...

"yesterday
i
woke
up
sucking
on
lemon"

Almægtige ..
Tilgiv
min tvivl,
min vrede,
min stolthed.
Bøj mig
ved din nåde.
Oprejs mig
ved din retfærdighed

"don't follow me .. i'm lost too"

fil. 2, vers 4

gør intet af selviskhed og heller ikke af indbildskhed, men sæt i ydmyghed de andre højere end jer selv. tænk ikke hver især på jeres eget, men tænk alle også på de andres vel.

en moderne salme ..

I was born
I was born to be with you
In this space and time
After that and ever after

I haven't had a clue
Only to break rhyme
This foolishness can leave a heart black and blue

Only love, only love
can leave such a mark
But only love, only love
can heal such a scar

I was born
I was born to sing for you
I didn’t have a choice but to lift you up
And sing whatever song you wanted me to

I give you back my voice
From the womb my first cry, it was a joyful noise…

Only love, only love
can leave such a mark
But only love, only love
can heal such a scar

Justified till we die, you and I will magnify
The Magnificent
Magnificent

Only love, only love
can leave such a mark
But only love, only love
unites our hearts

Justified till we die, you and I will magnify
The Magnificent

Min Jesus, lad mit hjerte få
Mel.: Carl Nielsen 1914

1 Min Jesus, lad mit hjerte få
en sådan smag på dig,
at nat og dag du være må
min sjæl umistelig!

2 Da bliver nådens tid og stund
mig sød og lystelig,
til du mig kysser med din mund(1)
og tager hjem til dig.

3 Mit hjerte i den grav, du lå
til påskemorgen rød,
lad, når det aftner, hvile få
og smile ad sin død!

4 Før så mig arme synder hjem
med din retfærdighed
til dit det ny Jerusalem,
til al din herlighed!

N.F.S. Grundtvig 1846.

(1) Moses døde efter jødisk overlevering under Guds kys (5 Mos 34,5)

"Uden risiko ingen tro. Tro er netop modsigelsen mellem inderlighedens uendelige lidenskab og den objektive uvished. Kan jeg objektivt gribe Gud, så tror jeg ikke, men netop fordi jeg ikke kan det, så må jeg tro; og vil jeg bevare mig i troen, må jeg bestandigt passe på at jeg fastholder den objektive uvished, at jeg i den objektive uvished er på de 70.000 favne vand, og dog tror" SAK

munch og dalí ... om den samme højtid

kongen kommer ...

Bryd ud i jubel, Zions datter,
råb af fryd, Jerusalems datter!
Se, din konge kommer til dig,
retfærdig og sejrrig,
sagtmodig, ridende på et æsel,
på en æselhoppes føl.

-Zakarias; ca. 500 år før Kristus

'the heavens are busy right now, can I put you on hold?'

the mystic...

"Just as in earthly life lovers long for the moment when they are able to breathe forth their love for each other, to let their souls blend in a soft whisper, so the mystic longs for the moment when in prayer he can, as it were, creep into God."
S. Kierkegaard

"get busy living or get busy dying"

forgiveness ...

grace

grace:
She takes the blameShe covers the shameRemoves the stainIt could be her nameGraceIt's a name for a girlIt's also a thought that changed the worldAnd when she walks on the streetYou can hear the stringsGrace finds goodness in everythingGrace, she's got the walkNot on a ramp or on chalkShe's got the time to talkShe travels outside of karmaShe travels outside of karmaWhen she goes to workYou can hear her stringsGrace finds beauty in everythingGrace, she carries a world on her hipsNo champagne flute for her lipsNo twirls or skips between her fingertipsShe carries a pearl in perfect conditionWhat once was hurtWhat once was frictionWhat left a markNo longer stings

Because grace makes beauty
Out of ugly things
Grace makes beauty
Out of ugly things

ikke at tro, er at miste den for bestandig."
