I love how Matt Wlsh is dismantling the jibberish. 👍😀 He says these 'woke' people are hiding behind words with no substance.

Ida Elina, Finnish pop-kantele player (Finnish national instrument): "When the pandemic hit hard the music industry in 2020, I really believed that was it, the end. I had been working on a song just a few weeks before it all started – about not giving up when the rough winds come, about mountain-moving faith and about keeping your dreams. Little did I know what would come. Now, when the world really is in a turmoil, I wish this song might bring you joy, comfort and courage to do whatever you've got in your heart."
That's what I've been asking as well. 😂 😅 In Swedish we have a word for the day after tomorrow: övermorgon. In German it's übermorgen. In Norwegian it's overmorgen. In Finnish ylihuomenna.
Finns are considered shy and persons of few words. But that doesn't make us less smart... ;-)
I think that celebrating April 30 and May 1 is a typical Nordic thing. You can read about it in the linked article. In our city there is always a car parade (mostly old American cars) among other things. There are many Finns who have old, American cars as a hobby, and they renovate them. https://finland.fi/life-society/finland-shows-carnival-colours-on-may-day/
I got to listen to Brother Yun this morning. Unfortunately his interpreter Brother Ren has fallen sick, so I wasn't able to send greetings to him from @sinbach I tried to talk to Yun in English, and a few phrases in German, but he seems to prefer Chinese. 😉 They found a stand in on a short notice, a Chinese woman with another Chinese dialect, who isn't fluent in Swedish (the language of the church I went to). So I suppose the preaching today wasn't as long and in depth as it could have been. But his message 'Jesus loves you' got through. The boy with the mask on, is a 16-year-old local Finn who speaks Chinese because he has lived for ten years in Western China (close to Qinghai Lake) where his father has worked with Bible translation. He has continued his work from Finland.
I'm so touched by this book, and I highly recommend it! I am so glad that there are books like this, and Leaving Buddha by Eugene Bach, that give unique insights into the lives of Tibetan Buddhist and Hindu monks/priests and their journeys to Christ! I haven't heard of any similar books out there! They should be spread among Westerners that are interested in Eastern religions, that are presented here as a way to inner peace and love. It's quite the opposite. There are demonic activities, control, duties and heavy religious burdens, enslavement of the soul etc. Rahil is a very intelligent and talented person, but even highly sensitive. He is and Indian, who grew up in England, and who wanted to give it all to the Hindu religion and become a priest, which he was for 20 years. It was a long journey before he got the strength to leave his community, god and guru Guruji. Nobody told him he had to believe in Jesus, but Jesus knocked on his door and he KNEW Jesus was the only Way.
The battle belongs to the Lord

Oops! This is hilarious (if it's true). 😂 (Click the picture to see the text).
Brother Yun will be in my town next week, as well as in other cities in Finland and Sweden. Thank you @sinbach for sharing this information!

I'm helping my son with his homework, to understand equations. It's not the easiest thing to learn in math. A number line is always helpful, in particular if you count with negative numbers.
"The Finnish passport is the joint third strongest in the world, allowing holders visa-free access to a total of 189 countries.../... Japanese and Singaporean passports topped the index, facilitating visa-free access to 192 countries worldwide, while Germany and South Korea came joint second place on 190.
Finland, along with Italy, Luxembourg and Spain, took third place. Among the other Nordic nations, Denmark and Sweden were in fourth place, Norway in sixth, and Iceland in eleventh."
