One Mind in Christ

"May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had, so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ." Romans 15: 5-6

I've been thinking of a dear friend, who is also a born again Christian. Although we  haven't spoken on the phone in a while, we recently exchanged texts via WhatsApp.

I was going to call her yesterday, but when I checked the time, it was 9.30pm. I thought it was too late to call her then.

Today, I thought about my friend again and made a mental note to call her.

Later in the afternoon,  I received a WhatsApp call from the same friend, but it only rang once. I called her back immediately and asked if she was trying to call me. She said she had called me by mistake. She said she had been searching for a link I sent her a while back about this former New Age leader who became a believer in Jesus Christ.  She said something has happened in her town, which is relevant to that video.

I told her the last two nights, I actually watched three of the man's videos on YouTube. I promised to send her the link again for the video she was searching for.

It's amazing how my friend and I had the same thought!

We have the one Mind in Christ. ❤️

Here's the video I sent my friend.

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.
