Sharing Love From Sweden - Crushed By Your Love by Eva Haglund

Crushed By Your Love

The woman at your feet was crushed by your love. The sins were forgiven. She met You, Jesus, and was crushed by Your love.

Who am I? A "needer". Who do I need? You! Our own works - titles, education, riches, and even the right clothes - our own strength is crushed at Your feet.

You want You to be seen in our lives. The woman at Jesus' feet did not come with her own strength. There were people around her who did not count with her. "She had just been a prostitute."

The woman was crushed at Your feet by Your love. Let us be melted in ourselves. You are the One who is big. Let us be melted at your feet, my God of love.

Let us give like "precious oil" our lives. Give it all to You in Your hand. Your biggest present to us was the giving of Your life - crushed at Calvary, like a precious oil of love from Your heart.

I want to be at Your feet. I want to be on my knees for what You have done for me on the cross. I am crushed by your love at Your feet.

A BOTTLE of PERFUME -  LIKE A HEART

 JESUS IS LIKE THE SEA

Jesus, You are much more wonderful than I understand. You meet me in the morning. I am crying just thinking about how fantastic You are. Longing for you. You are like the sea.

To know You is to know a big sea which never ends. I just know a little drop of the sea about who You are. Jesus, You are so wonderful! Your love is so great, as a big sea!

You are the most wonderful person I ever have met! Jesus, You are amazing, as the sea is full of "sea-stars" and "sea-diamonds" created in the sun. You are like the sea.

Eva Haglund

When I think about the Israelic flag I also think about  a diamond in a sea. God is wonderful like the sea. He is like a diamond. Like a sea full of "diamonds" and "stars". Israel is like a beautiful star and precious diamond in God`s hand. God loves Israel!

 

 

 A BLUE DIAMOND

 

As the stars...

Poems and Bible Lessons by Eva Haglund of Stockholm, Sharing Love From Sweden.

JESUS YOU ARE FANTASTIC

Like the most wonderful rose,

Like the most precious diamond, 

Like the most marvelous star 

- shining for ever; 

Like the most beautiful pearl, 

You have a heart of gold.

God of gold. 

Heavenly gold. 

Love.

Jesus, 

You are love.

Muslim ruler hires Israeli silversmiths to adorn his palace

Sunday, November 25, 2012 |  Yossi Aloni, Israel Today magazine  

There might be a general Muslim boycott on all Israeli-made goods, but that didn't stop a Muslim ruler from commissioning Israeli silversmiths to craft a stunning diamond-studded candelabrum for his palace.

With a price tag of USD $400,000, the beautifully crafted piece was accompanied by an armed guard all the way from Israel to its new home in one of the nations from the former Soviet Union.

Standing at nearly six feet tall, the candelabrum was carved from pure silver, and includes two flamingos intricately carved from solid gold at its base. Not to mention the 4-carat diamond embedded in the stem. It took eight silversmiths from the Israeli jeweler Hazorfim over four months to craft the work of art.

Since direct contact between Muslim heads of state and Israeli producers is taboo, the deal was brokered by a Russian intermediary, who has already helped the buyer purchase three pieces from Hazorfim, with a fourth in the works.

The buyer reportedly originally commissioned Italian, Russian and Turkish craftsmen to produce the piece. But the level of craftsmanship and care demonstrated by the Israelis eventually won them the contract.

Hazorfim included with the candelabrum a book chronicling the entire process of its creation.
