It's not the latest American YouTube preacher or a particular theologian from one of the different denominations that is important to ask. No, what does Jesus say? That's the important thing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In March this year, I attended a secret gathering with a number of pastors and leaders from the church in Central Asia. Two years ago, I was also in one of the Central Asian countries where the Danish European Mission has a number of projects. Here we met passionate Christians, here we met great love for the Bible, and here we met living prayer meetings. It was neither government restrictions nor the tight budget that set the agenda, but rather the question: What does Jesus say?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">There are days when I need to hear that I need to come to Jesus and cast all my burdens on him, for in him I can find rest in the midst of toil and inadequacy (Matthew 11:26). On other days, I can boldly face the day's tasks with the words \"Nothing is impossible for God\" (Luke 1:37), for it is not in myself that strength is found. The days are different, but let us daily seek and find guidance and strength for daily life in Jesus.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW108144266 BCX4\">Anders Graversen is parish priest at Kingos Church in N\u00f8rrebro in Copenhagen<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW108144266 BCX4\"> and Chairman of the Danish European Mission.<\/span><\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I was studying theology back in the day, I had a classmate who would occasionally pat me on the back and ask, \"So Anders, what is Jesus saying to you today?\"<\/p>","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":1535,"template":"","class_list":["post-1534","teologisk-refleksion","type-teologisk-refleksion","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","infinite-scroll-item","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-33"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 -
