"Jan Mikael and delightful Danish sweets ..."


Shalom Jan and all dear doves,
 

Some times it seems that those who have come through some extremely
bitter experiences are those who are most delicately sweet.

Recall still childlike and innocent Mary (Mariam), who was asked by
Heaven to bear the certain ignominy and shame of a child with no human
father, and knowing something about this most lovely child she so
tenderly nursed, that He was sure to be despised, rejected, spit-upon,
and hated without a cause, ... and then to be cut-off,  and pierced
through.

Surely a sword did pierce her heart too, as she was foretold.

Lu 2: 34,35 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother,

   Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel;
   and for a sign which shall be spoken against;

   (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,)
   that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
 

And the perplexity of mixed emotions: when Jesus asked her to regard
John now, as her son:

Joh 19:26  When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple
standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother,

   Woman, behold thy son!
 

But oh, the exceeding abundant joy, above all that one might ask or
think, to be there at the empty tomb, to hear the rumors of those who
saw Jesus alive again, and then to be with Him again, in Person!

Is there some loved one of yours who has 'gone before', who placed
there life in the Masters hands?

What a joy it will be to see them again.

Jan, there was a very special man from Denmark, Svend Danielson, that
I was permitted to be with, and to see him turn his life into our
Saviour's hands ... and to die, the gracious death of those blessed
ones.  He may have one surviving relative, a niece, (either the
daughter of his brother?, or his sister?)  Svend was born December 11,
1924 ... He would have turned 82 December 11, 2006.  He calmly
breathed his last, October 11, 2006.

I heard last year, from my son's fiance, who was there then, that
Denmark is not that large a territory?

If you have any idea's about how I might locate this lady ... and how
then to share/translate the story of the last part of the life and
concern of her Uncle, that would be exceedingly wonderful.

Shalom shalom,
 

David
