Have you ever prayed… and God answered your prayer in a way you didn’t expect? So much so that you completely missed His answer… or almost missed it??? Here´s a little true story I heard. Two 10 year old boys had a pet guinea pig they used to train and play with. They would build ramps and…
‘One of God’s main jobs is making people. He makes them to replace the ones that die, so there will be enough people to take care of things on earth. He doesn’t make grownups, just babies. I think because they are smaller and easier to make. That way He doesn’t have to take up His…
Last week I got back from a week´s trip to Dubai. My first time there and it was quite an experience. Apart from meeting old friends and making new friends I also got to see and experience the Dubai desert for a few hours as a birthday present from my church. I wasn´t quite sure…

I sometimes enjoy thinking about just how life was in the past. One noticeable difference between then and the present age is the lack of electricity and machinery to help with everyday duties. How did people in the centuries before Thomas Edison find time to do anything? Doing laundry with washboards, plowing with oxen, hauling…
If we could shrink the world to the size of a village with 100 people and kept all proportions, then in that village there would be 59 Asians, 15 Africans, 12 Europeans, 9 Latin-Americans and people from the Caribbean, and 5 north Americans. The richest in that village would own 65 times more than the…
A few days ago I was heading out to a suburb called Mölndal to have a talk with someone. Nothing unusual about that, but the difference this time was that I wasn’t going to be taking my car but be traveling on public transport. After arriving in the suburb I jumped off the bus and…
