Here are some short Christmas Bible Verses that are easy to memorize. We are soon in the middle of November and for the first year since I moved to Sweden we are actually planning on celebrating Christmas here, in Sweden this year. Usually, we travel to Colombia or Finland for Christmas to visit our families. Even during the pandemic, we traveled to Finland, we had to spend 12 days in quarantine in my parent’s summer house but even that year we chose to travel to Finland for Christmas. But this year, my parents and at least one sister will come to Sweden and we will get to enjoy a Swedish…

Here are some Bible verses on loneliness to remind you that you are not alone. One of the lies I think our enemy wants us to believe in is that we are alone.

Here are some wallpapers with Bible verses that you can download and use on your phone. Our phones have become very important items we use so many times during our day. On our phones, we receive and respond to messages, and call people, and we also use them for so many other things. I am a person who really likes paper calendars and notebooks but slowly I have started to use the apps on my phone more for planning my days as well. Most of us look at our phones many times throughout our days so having an encouraging wallpaper can be a good way to stay encouraged during our…

We are now in the middle of September and that means that some of us have entered a new school year and some of us have returned from our summer vacations and are back at work. Or maybe you continue everyday life at home with your children just like me. September doesn’t bring new projects for all of us but here in Sweden where we live, we experience changing seasons from sunny summer to the colder weather that the fall season brings.
