God jul! Merry Christmas in Norwegian! God jul!!!! Ahh! My roots take wings in God!! My ancestry has a wonderful way with words!!! I like it so much better than a mass of Christ, for he is not dead and is ALIVE forevermore, AND newly BORN in us every day, representing our being born of God anew from Above!!!! (John 3:3-15)
Kjære friends and family, ønsker deg god jul og et godt nytt år! I wish you a God jul and a happy new year!!
I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play
And mild and sweet their songs repeat
Of peace on earth good will to men
And the bells are ringing (Peace on Earth)
Like a choir they’re singing (Peace on Earth)
In my heart I hear them
Peace on earth, good will to men
And in despair I bowed my head
There is no peace on earth I said
For hate is strong and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to men
But the bells are ringing (Peace on Earth)
Like a choir singing (Peace on Earth)
Does anybody hear them?
Peace on earth, good will to men
Then rang the bells more loud and deep
God is not dead, nor doth He sleep (Peace on Earth, peace on Earth)
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
With peace on earth, good will to men
Then ringing singing on its way
The world revolved from night to day
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime
Of peace on earth, good will to men
And the bells they’re ringing (Peace on Earth)
Like a choir they’re singing (Peace on Earth)
And with our hearts we’ll hear them
Peace on earth, good will to men
Do you hear the bells they’re ringing? (Peace on Earth)
The life the angels singing (Peace on Earth)
Open up your heart and hear them (Peace on Earth)
Peace on earth, good will to men
Peace on earth, Peace on earth
Peace on earth, Good will to men
I am in love with this song, so here is another version:
And a live version!!!
I woke up at 5am and had an amazing time with my Abba! Father! and then close to sunrise I began to hear the bells ringing in heaven; an innumerable chorus of bells chiming joyously, deliciously, delightfully, in a rapturous celebration! God jul!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thank you all my wonderful readers for another awe and wonder-filled year! God Jul y’all!!!!!
New Heaven on Earth!

Thank you Holly for providing our Norwegian cousin’s husband’s image! I have never heard the bells of heaven like this before, not loud ringing or clanging like church bells; this was subtle and heavenly and beautiful and indescribable and in innumerable numbers! I have heard singing before and before our earthly dad transitioned to heaven, Jann and I heard audible bells! I saw trillions and God-zillion points of flickering lights on my ceiling while I was hearing the heavenly bells! O how I LOVE our Father who sits above the highest heavens and dwells in our heart! Awe! Wonder!! Majesty!!!!
O taste and see!
Delight, rapture…foretastes of glory divine!!
The Hidden Life, by Oswald Chambers:
“The Spirit of God witnesses to the simple almighty security of the life hid with Christ in God…We talk as if it is the most precarious thing to live the sanctified life; it is the most secure thing, because it has Almighty God in and behind it. The most precarious thing is to try and live without God. If we are born again it is the easiest thing to live in right relationship to God and the most difficult thing to go wrong, if only we will heed God’s warnings and keep in the light. When we think of being delivered from sin, of being filled with the Spirit, and walking in the light, we picture the peak of a great mountain, very high and wonderful, and we say–‘Oh, but I could never live up there!’ But when we do get there BY GOD’S GRACE, we find it is not a mountain peak, but a plateau where there is ample room to live and to grow. ‘Thou hast enlarged my steps under me.’
When you really see Jesus [or hear him!], I defy you to doubt Him. When he says, ‘Let not your heart be troubled,’…Every time you get into personal contact with Jesus, His words are real. ‘My peace I give unto you;’ it is a peace all over from the crown of the head to the sole of the feet, an irrepressible confidence. ‘Your life is hid with Christ in God,’ and the imperturbable peace of Jesus Christ is imparted to you.”
May you all experience this peace within you this God Jul!
