Jesus spoke..

sometimes its really funny what happens when u do not expect it the most.
Today i´ve been to a service..but to be honest I havent been there because I thought it would be a great service but because I thought I should go there because it was the service to thank god for all the wonderful camps in summer.
So I sat there and I wasnt very motivated...
but then Kerschi held the sermon...and there were two things that made me surprised. the sermon was about hope. living hope.
And one of the first sentences he told was "Jesus conquered the death". wow!! wasnt that exactly what I told u yesterday in my blog entry?? I really needed to control myself not to shout out loudly: "AMEN!!! thats the way it is!!!"
the second thing is, that I´m thinking a lot about future and stuff at the moment..I´m trying to find my way and I ask and ask what God planned for me. and i really struggle with my relationship that is over forever...it hurts a lot these days and Im wondering when it will end and I just wish that all the pain would go away. So in the sermon they read a few verses from 1. Peter 1,3-9.it says:

"3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,4 and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade- kept in heaven for you, 5 who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. 7 These have come so that your faith- of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire- may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honour when Jesus Christ is revealed. 8 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, 9 for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls."

"WOOOOW!!!" was the only thing I could say when they were ready with reading..
I was absolutely overwhelmed by what God told me through this.
it made my day. Im amazed how Jesus is talking to me, even when I sit in a service where I actually thought "why am I here??" - therefore, to hear God speak! Thank you Lord!
