    Two Tumors

    I tried to buy the American Indian Tea, but it is impossible. It is not accepting my credit card for some reason. I am in EU/Finland, so I wonder if there is some obstacles preventing me because of this.

    Two Tumors

    I have a messed up immune system, because I have an autoimmune disease called ulcerative colitis. The stronger my immune system is, the more it tries to kill my intestines. I am trying to balance it by diet instead of using medicines, but this fall I had deep sorrow from losing my best friend so...

    You also asked me how I am doing. I skipped answering it in the last message, but now I am going to answer. I am going to be brutally honest: not very good. Today I got to know I have two tumors on the nerve that goes to my left arm. A few weeks ago I suddenly lost the strength in my left arm...

    Two Tumors

    Today I received the results from an MRI scan. I have two tumors near my spine, located on the nerves that run to my left arm. They appear to be growing quickly, as I have lost most of the strength in my left arm in a very short time. In addition, there are changes in two lymph nodes near the...

    Why are you single?

    I was married from young adulthood until my early forties. Suddenly finding myself single in middle age makes things difficult. Christian women close to my age are usually married, and there are really no Christian single women where I live, neither in my church nor in the other churches in my...

    What it looks like where you are from?

    At this time of the year Finland is very dark. I will instead post a summer picture from near where I am living.

    Why do You love Christmas?

    I like very much the time right after the Christmas dinner is eaten, it is getting dark outside and we are listening to "O helga natt" (O Holy Night) sung by Jussi Björling. Everything is so peaceful at that moment, and the words of the song speaks directly to my heart. And of course I also...

    What are you working on?

    For the latest 1.5 years I have been working on my spiritual life, taking more time for prayers and Bible reading. It was then I decided to get 1h earlier up each morning so I would have more time with the Lord. And more than anything, God is working on me rather than me working on myself. My...

    Machine translation is very handy. Like 20 years ago I was friend with a man from Poland. At that time I learned a bit of Polish too.

    Jag förstår att det var en vän som du uppskattade mycket, och att du saknar henne. Ni verkar ju ha gjort så mycket tillsammans. Det är verkligen helt otroligt tråkigt att pandemin tog henne. Det är inte många dagar kvar av detta år, så snart får du mycket med ledig tid då. Vad har du för planer...

    Jag märkte i dina tidigare inlägg, och även nu, att lite norska smyger sig med. Hur har du kommit i kontakt med norskan, har du släktingar i Norge också? Jag lärde mig också något nytt om Louisiana. Jag visste inte att man pratar franska där. Själv har jag inte upplevt skärgården utanför...

    Well, I am out of ideas. That was the only time travel movie title I knew about.

    I am single and searching, I am single but not searching, I am single till the day I find. Which one are you?

    I am a single and I certainly would want to be married again, that is a sure thing, but I want it this time to be with a person God has chosen for me. I keep my eyes open, and I am asking God to close all doors that should not be opened and to open the door that should be opened. So I am kind of...

    I asked for this .

    I have been praying a variation of this prayer for myself, and also for other. I have been asking God to allow and to do whatever it takes so I am among the saved ones when he returns. And the same for others too.

    Jag håller med om att finska är svårt. Fast jag bott hela mitt liv här i Finland så har jag inte bemästrat det. Min kommun har en svenskspråkig majoritet och här får man all service på svenska, så jag behöver inte så ofta tala finska. Du kan vara stolt över att du kan så här bra svenska trots...

    I am not into movies, but I know a movie called "Back to the Future" exists and it might fit the time travel part. I have not seen it so I have no idea if the rest of the clues fit it.

    Last person to post wins!!!

    And here comes the next time. :sneaky::giggle: I might as well post something meaningful into this game. Here is one of my favorite promises in the Bible: Phil 1:6 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. This...
