Mind Meld

"For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ." 1 Corinthians 2:16

----

While I was sitting on a park bench people watching , I noticed this woman walking with  her dog beside her. As they were approaching the park gate, the dog stopped and sat down and waited for his owner to put the lead around his neck. Once the lead was on, it walked beside the woman.

I was amazed how so in tune the dog was with its owner that he knew exactly when to stop to let her put on his lead.

The way the owner and her dog were so in tune reminds me of the Vulcans in the American sci-fi series, Star Trek. When a Vulcan wants to share his thoughts, he  mind melds with the willing participant by saying: "My mind to your mind, your thoughts to my thoughts."

I believe when I gave my life to  Christ I allowed my mind to meld with Christ  His Mind becomes my mind and his thoughts become my thoughts. However, this is a continuous process of renewing of my mind. I also have the Holy Spirit living in me who is costantly reminding me of the Truth. 

I have the Mind of Christ.  ❤️

Man's Plan versus God’s Plan

"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...

God Directsv My Steps

(Previously posted on Facebook on 6.5.2021).  "A man’s heart plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps." Proverbs 16: 9 ------- After I had performed my civic duty and voted at the local elections, I decided to take advantage of the dry  and sunny weather and go for a long walk. It was so warm, I removed my hat and scarf.  I thought I could get a sandwich and have it at the park. I also thought I might do my weekly grocery shopping on the way home but then I thought I'll do it tomorrow. Now that the decision was made, I headed to the store to buy a sandwich, but my feet had other ideas and was leading me in the direction of the park. I let my feet lead the way. I walked through the park and discovered another exit which led to the store I had planned to get my sandwich. Now that I was there, I decided to do my weekly grocery shopping. When I came out of the store, the weather was now a lot cooler with grey clouds. I put my hat and scarf back on.  I walked to the ...

The Power of Love

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...
