"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29: 11 ---- A few weeks ago I asked my flatmate what her plans were for Christmas. I said it would be nice if we could spend it together. She told me she planned to spend a few days with her daughter who lives out of London. Her daughter was going to pick her up on Christmas Eve. She asked if I had any plans. I told her I planned to work up to and after Christmas. I said I could look after her cat, Zeus, while she was away. I also planned to hang out with a friend who lives down the road from me after Christmas. Things didn't go according to plan. First of all, I had a cold which meant I had to cancel all shifts I was booked on before Christmas and just rest. During that time, I spent a lot of time meditating on and receiving revelation of God's Love. When I got better, I accepted two shifts and worked ti...

What is My Function?

At this expo I was working at, I was helping visitors print out their badges with the scanning machine. Whenever I or anyone got close to the scanning machine, it would automatically scan the barcode on their badge and print out another badge. I found it quite hilarious. 😄 I had to either hide my lanyard badge inside my jacket or try not to stand close to the machine. It got me thinking about functions. The function of the scanning machine is to scan barcodes and print out badges. In other words, the machine has been programmed to scan barcodes and print out badges.

In the same respect, I believe the function of all born again Christians is to be ambassadors for Christ. All Christians are programmed by the renewing of their minds to be ambassadors for Christ. We renew our minds with the Word of God/Bible. Within every Christian is the Holy Spirit, who is our Helper,...

The Power of Love

June 28, 2021

While we were under strict lockdown rules, we could only travel on public transport for essential journeys. We were advised to sit apart from other passengers. There were even areas on buses that were cordoned off from passengers. Now that the rules have been relaxed, we can travel freely on public transport. There are no longer areas cordoned off. However, we are still required to wear face masks on public transport. I have noticed passengers are still wary about sharing seats with passengers they are not travelling with unless there are no longer any other seats available. While I was sitting upstairs during my bus jouney, this man came upstairs. He was carrying several bags of shopping. All window seats were taken, but there were lots of seats available that he could share. He walked all the way down the aisle and stood next to me. I could see that he was trying to be considerate to other passengers, but I didn't think standing upstairs was a very good idea. S...
