It's a Miracle!

"Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ says the Lord of hosts." Zechariah 4: 6

----

Because the teachers are on strike today and tomorrow, I was resigned to the idea that I will be off for those two days. So when my agency called me this morning to ask if I could cover this class, I really wasn't in the right frame of mind. I decided to do the job as it was a Church of England school I've worked at before. I even arrived on time.

On the way to the bus stop,   I thankef God for blessing the pupils, their parents, teaching staff, the school and the entire education system and to make me a blessing to everyone I meet and work with.

The buses were really empty as there were hardly any school kids on board. When I got off the bus and was walking to the school, the roads were eerily empty like it was at lockdown.

The boy I was working with was very receptive and engaged with the class. He usually likes doing his own thing. He also did some really good work, which the teacher was very happy about.

After lunch, on my way to class, I literally bumped into the schiol manager. She told me she was coming to look for me to ask if I was available to work in the same class tomorrow.  I said yes.

In the afternoon,  the teacher  (also supply) asked this pupil sitting next to me to keep practising his handwriting. After he did it again, his handwriting looked like calligraphy.  The teacher was amazed and showed off his writing to the class and the other teaching assistant. One of the kids exclaimed, "It's a miracle!"

After school, as I was walking to the bus stop, I was thinking about the kid with the improved handwriting.  I suddenly noticed the same kid and his mum walking in front of me.

I told his mum how amazed we were at his handwriting. She told me he's been trying really hard because of his dyslexia. She said he was very excited I also told his mum what a wonderful boy he was, he was so kind and helpful. She was really chuffed.

Thank you, God, for doing Your Thing. I couldn't do any of it without you! ❤️

The Cross is My Landmark

"Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." Galatians 3; 13-14 ---- While I was walking at Regent's Park, I could see BT Tower in the distance, which I used as my landmark to guide me to where I was headed. I know I'm headed in the wrong direction if I can no longer see any part of the BT Tower. It got me thinking of the cross that Jesus was crucified on. I believe the cross is a landmark that reminds me of the price Jesus's crucifixion paid for all humanity for all time. If I am ever feeling"lost" physically, emotionally or spiritually,, all I need to do is either think of the cross or look at a representation of the cross and I'm back on track. Thank you, Jesus, for dying for me on the cross! ❤️ ✝️ Photos of

If God is Sovereign, Why is there Evil?

It is written in the Bible that God is in complete control and rules over all. (Psalm 103: 19l If God is sovereign and in control of the entire universe, why is there so much evil in the world? In other words, why does He allow evil to continue? The Bible tells us that because God is extremely patient, He gives us many second chances to enable us to repent or change our ways, as He doesn't want anyone to perish. (2 Peter 3: 9) That's why God allows men to continue in their sin. At a time of God's choosing, He brings down the proud. (Daniel 4: 37) One example in the Bible is  the life of King Nebuchadnezzar. God sent a  dream to the king to warn him about his sins and how he was exalting himself above God.  If he did not repent, he would temporarily lose his kingdom and be driven away from human society and end up eating grass like animals.  The king did not heed God's warning. After a year, he ended up going mad and lived like an animal for seven years. God then res

Shopping with the Holy Spirit

Image
Because my job involves standing up for hours, I needed to get new footwear as the cheap trainers I've been wearing have been very uncomfortable. I have several trainers which are very comfortable, but they are too colourful for work as your shoes have to be black. My ideal would be black trainers that could pass as smart shoes where the logo is either hidden or not that obvious. The first thing I did was check the website of my favourite brand of trainers, I found a pair I liked. Because they said they come in small sizes, I decided to visit one of their stores at Oxfird Street (Europe's busiest shopping street with 200+ shops) where I could try them on for size. After work, I caught the bus to Oxford Street. As the bus was driving  by, I noticed a shop that someone had recommended. (I actually have one of their trainers, but they are in pink and blue and not suitable for work). There was another shoe shop next door that I am also familiar with.  Should I get off the bus? Nah.
