The Prodigal Daughter Returns

"For I am the Lord, I change not." Malachi 3: 6 ---- It's a new day and a new venue. Today, I'm working at Covent Garden (CG) in central London.  When I was in my twenties, I used to hang out a lot with friends at CG  enjoying the pubs and shops. Since then, a lot of the old shops have gone and been replaced by new trendy ones. And yet, the market and the buildings around  CG remain the same. I believe the changing shops represent different generations and ages while the buildings and market represent the Lord who never changes. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever." Hebrews 13: 8 Blessings to all. ♥️

"And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." Romans 12: 2 ---- I am constantly being bombarded with world views that are completely opposed to your Christian world view. The Bible tells us this world view or carnal mind is hostile towards God. (Romans 8: 6-7)  How does one deal with this hostility? While I was at my friend's place, I suddenly felt intense pain in my calf. When she noticed me wincing, she said, "What's wrong?" "Cramp," I said. "It must be very painful," she said. My friend is a nurse and doesn’t share my Christian belief. So I know exactly where she is coming from. I didn't agree or disagree with her. Instead, while I was massaging my calf, I was thinking of Jesus. We continued our conversation. Within a few minutes, the pain had dissolved. I told my friend my calf was now fine as Jesus had healed i...

Before I had my hair cropped in 1992, I mulled over that decision for a whole year. While the hairdresser was cutting my hair, she looked at my reflection on the mirror and must have noticed the horror on my face. She told me if I wasn't sure, she could just do short back and sides and leave a bit of hair on top. I agreed with her.  The next day, I went to another hairdresser and asked them to take everything off. I haven't regretted that decision. In the same respect, before I arrived at the point where I could share my Christian faith in public, I mulled over it for over a year. I haven't looked back since. What can I say, I am a deep thinker. 😀 ------- Posted on.Facebook -14.8.2021 Friends, In case you haven't noticed, after a lot of soul searching, I have converted to Orthodox - Bible based - Christianity. By this I mean confessing myself as a sinner and that Jesus Christ died for my sins and by faith and grace I have accepted Jesus as my personal saviour. This mea...

"And do not present your members  as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members  as  instruments of righteousness to God.   For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace."  Romans 6: 13-14 ---- I have been practising surremdering everything to the Lord. I don't always remember to. When I got up this morning, I surrendered my whole being and every moment of my day to the Lord. I left home earlier than usual to catch the bus to the nearest tube station. When I arrived at the station, the  platform was chock-a-block with passengers. There was a notice informing passengers that there was a severe delay. An announcement came on advising passengers to find alternative routes to their destination. I started wondering whether I should catch the bus. Do I have enough time to catch the bus and arrive at work on time? I then reminded myse...

"He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him." "Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."  Philippians 2: 9-11 ---- While I was lying in bed watching a video on my laptop, I started feeling pain in my right calf. I adjusted my leg slightly but the pain got really severe. Immediately, I started calling on the name of Jesus, first out loud and then in my thought. Within a minute, the pain gradually dissolved. I continued thinking of Jesus while watching the video. After an hour or so, I felt pain, this time underneath my right foot. I continued calling on Jesus' name and the pain dissolved. Nice try, Satan! The name of Jesus is ...
