Janni ♥ made by God's photostream

Hey, I´m Janina from Germany and I live near Braunschweig, that is near Hannover.

First I want to say, that I want to give my life to God. He gave me life! He gave me a purpose! He loves me and blessed me with amazing, good things and without me doing something for it! He gave me freedom and payed with death for my faults! I know I´m running away from Dad´s advise almost every day, but He has more love to forgive than any father on earth, and I want to learn listening to His opinion more and more and more and more. It´s damn hard for me, and often I can not forgive myself, but I try to keep my eyes on the way of love.
Jesus Christ (Yeshua HaMashiach as he was called in his time on earth) is the King over all presidents and kings of this earth, He came humble, was killed without having made a fault in His life, and that is why he is the ONLY way out of your punishment death. HE DIED INSTEAD OF YOU. If you want to live forever in the new, perfect world that He prepares for the end of this world, give Him your faults to pay for you and forgive you and talk with Him about your life- He made everything, He knows what is best for you, He´s got humour, sometimes I laugh tears about what he´s doing in my life, mostly when I asked Him something before!
However, what I know for sure is that there is a maker of the universe, and He is not some cloudy mysterious power, but because He MADE all that you can see and feel, He IS just as wonderful as all the good things that you know! For your life, you have to get to know Him yourself, but as for me, I even got His existence proved, but just I can know that, because I told Him stuff secretly and he answered in the most amazing ways! Again and again with such a kind love he gave me gifts better and sometimes more funny or special or personal than any boyfriend´s or parent´s present. This world is so fast and loud and old and explained already that it seems strange to believe that each of the million people is a main character of the one story, which beginning you can read in the Bible. Each child of God is a more real PRINCE/SS than any fairy tale one is! Their Father made the world, which (in the freedom which perfect love gives) decided to go its own way, and they try to build His Kingdom again here on earth with their lifes, trying to bring other broken people back to their Father who is waiting for them, until this broken world will have an end.
For me by the way it was helpful to understand it by getting some distance from the real thing and reading "The Chronicles of Narnia" by C.S.Lewis. I imagined that this world was in the beginning just as fairy tale and purpose-like as Narnia with its first adventures. In the last book, there is also much more confusion in everything, because the world turned more and more away from God, and they don´t know anymore if there really is a God. As the reader you go through all the years of history with their adventures, but the characters that live 2000 years later, for them they are only history books and no one knows what is true of them. Like in our days with the Bible- what, if all those texts that sound boring today, were really amazing adventures that happened on this very planet? I think so. And I think, that God still has new amazing adventures for every life that is brave to step out of the securities of the world today and listenes to the master plan =)

Your life has got many minutes, many weeks.
You could invest ONE MINUTE to think about what would be, if God was really existing, watching you right now smiling about how beautiful you are, loving you more than you have ever been in love with someone, weeping about the damage the broken world has done to you (and he can do nothing against the free will of the people in this world, because love is giving freedom) and knowing all the good things he prepared for you and hoping with all power for you to come back, share what´s going on in your life with Him cause He knows all connections of the problems on earth...

Or give it ONE WEEK OF A THOUSAND to say God if you are really there just as real as the people you made, I want to talk to the one who made me and just wants my best! Say sorry for going your own selfish way, invite Him to walk to school or work or privacy with you, give you hints to live righteous in the day, allow Him to speak to you, tell Him some of your problems, and then don´t try Him, but just have your eyes open for blessings in the next days! When you see the sun going down (like me now writing this), imagine God, a person with a character, invented all these colors and lights and plants to make the world beautiful for you.

Now that were some deeper thoughts, but which are really important! Please don´t be scared- I am still a person living on this earth! And God also gave me a whole bunch of interests and gifts =)

Sorry, but I really like most to be surprised by God =)
Next to that, I love music, listening to it, translating lyrics, playing piano (and trying to play guitar...), singing, I like languages (English, Hebrew, Greek, German and American sign language, Spanish), being creative (cutting out pictures, making posters, drawing, building, taking pictures or work on them,...) If I could, I would do wind surfing again (great feeling!!! but no opportunity now...), Karaoke singing,...

...also the sound of rain, and drinking hot chocolate, or when snow is making a noise walking on it, also driving backwards in a train listening to music and seeing the world pass by, intelligent comedy, and wood workshops! I like to eat Lasagne, Croque, brown cabbage (I think it´s a german thing, usually they put brain in it, but that is NOT why I like it =), and... vinegar!!! =) I really like a lot of vinegar ^^,

I want to thank some people who deserve being named here a bit more than others, because they have at a point of my life become heroes by selfless encouraging, being patient with me, helping practically, being really precious friends.
If you are not on this list, of course that doesn´t mean you have not been a great blessing as well!!!

Thank you God, Jesus, Holy Spirit,

Julia, Jörg, Dori, Charles, Alex, Renée, Annie, Andres, Jessi, Gabi, Ben, Miri, my brother Marvin, my Parents and my grandparents.

Back to you

I've been down - I've been beat
I've been so tired - that I could not speak
I've been so lost that I could not see
I wanted things that were out of reach
Then I found you and you helped me through
Yeah you showed me what to do
And that's why I'm comin' back to you... yeah

Like a star that guides a ship across the ocean
That's how your love will take me home back to you
And if I wish upon that star - someday I'll be where you are
And I know that day is coming soon - yeah, I'm coming back to you...

You've been alone, but ya did not show it
You've been in pain, but I did not know it
YOU LET ME DO WHAT I NEEDED TO
AND YOU WERE THERE WHEN I NEEDED YOU
Mighta let you down, mighta messed you round
But ya never changed your point of view
And that's why I'm comin' back to you...
