None of Me, All of You

On my way to work, I was meditating on God's presence and thinking, "None of me, all of You."

After I finished my first shift at the museum, I had just about enough time to get some grocery shopping and then catch the tube to my next shift at the art gallery.

While we were briefed about our shift,  I started feeling pain on my right foot. It was getting so bad, I started thinking that I won't be able to work as I have to stand up. I quickly dismissed the thought and reminded myself that I walk in God.

During my shift, I was so engrossed chatting to my colleagues and visitors, I lost all awareness of my foot.

By the end of the shift, I was aware that both feet were now hurting.  Lord, I am going to have to rely on Your Grace to walk me home.

I noticed as I was walking with a colleague to the tube station I was gliding and I felt no pain. It was like I was on one of those travelators that they have at the airport where you are being moved while you're walking.

When I got off the bus and was walking home, my feet were hurting again. I let God walk me home effortlessly.

When I woke up this morning, my feet were no longer hurting.

The weaker I am in myself, the stronger I am in Christ. ❤️

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. The machine doesn't care whether you did not intend for it to scan the barcode, it scans it anyway. 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,...

About Angels

Do I believe in angels? I have always believed in angels. Years ago when a van came from nowhere and almost ran me over, someone pulled me out of the way. I turned round to thank the person, but there was no one there, at least they were not visible to my senses. I believe I was saved by an angel. When I followed the New Age, the belief was you could call on angels to do your bidding. Some people even worshipped angels. As a Christian, I now follow the teachings in the Bible. Angels appear frequently in the Bible. In the Bible: - Angels are God's messengers. For instance  the angel Gabriel was sent by God to tell the virgin Mary that she had been chosen to be the mother of Jesus. (Luke 1: 19) - Angels are sent by God to protect His people or fight various battles.(Psalm 91: 11-12; Revelation 12: 7) - Angels are not there to be at people's beck and call. Instead, they act on God's word.(Psalm 103: 20-21) - Angels are not to be worshipped. If I have a need, I can...

If at First You Don't Succeed

So I put a quiche in the oven to heat it up. By the time I checked it again, it was overdone. I had to scrape the burnt bits off. I didn't share that information with my flatmate, who was at work at the time. The very next day, my flatmate bought me the exact same quiche from the supermarket. I told her I had "cooked" a quiche the day before but it was more burnt than cooked. I believe God had inspired my flatmate to buy that quiche for me. It was His way of saying, if at first you don't succeed, try again.😊 Tomorrow I will have the quiche and be sure to follow the heating instructions. Thank you, Lord, for caring about everything that concerns me including cooking. ❤️
