God is Love

Image
"He who does not love does not know God, for God is love." 1 John 4: 8 ---- On my way to work at the theatre, I stopped off at the local supermarket to buy some tights, as my legs were freezing underneath my trousers. They didn't have any. I decided to try another supermarket. On the way, I was fascinated by the grittiness of the neighbourhood and decided to take some photos. After a while, I realised I was walking in the wrong direction. "Why didn't you stop me, Lord?" I said. "Because you were having so much fun taking photos," He said. I could feel Him smiling at me. After backtracking, I found a supermarket that sold the kind of tights I was looking for. I believe God has given me His love for particular things I enjoy doing like taking photos; my love for these particular theatres that I work in; and my love for chatting to people which I get to do at work. Interestingly enough, I noticed the word "Love" on a wall, which sym...

Christmas Gifts

Image
"There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all." 1 Corinthians 12: 4-6 ---- A Christian friend and I had planned to have a catch-up. Before we met up, I decided to get her a Christmas gift. I went into this store and noticed some woolly hats and gloves. I wondered if I should get those as she likes hats too. I have never seen her wearing that kind of hat though, it's more my kind of hat. I decided to leave it. Before I started my shift at the performing arts centre  I decided to check out their shop where I found this necklace in my budget.  I decided to get it for her as I knew my friend would like it. The next day when I met up with my friend, she gave me a Christmas gift. I was amazed to see a woolly hat and gloves and they were very similar to the ones I saw at the store. She als...

Man's Plan versus God’s Plan

Image
"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...

Jesus is My Life

"For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones." Ephesians 5: 30 ---- I woke up in the middle of the night coughing with a sore throat. I reminded myself that Jesus is not only my health, He is my body. When I woke up later, the sore throat was gone and I was no longer coughing. Thank you, Jesus, for being my life. ❤️

Celebrating the Birth of Christ

Image
It's that time of the year again when Christians (believers in Jesus Christ who have accepted Him as their Lord and Saviour) celebrate the birth of God made flesh. We believe Jesus Christ took the form of a man so all who believe in Him can have real life, eternal life, and have fellowship with God. I believe Jesus is literally my life, my health, my body, my joy, my peace and my everything.  Without Him, I am nothing and I have nothing. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with Christ's life, joy, love, peace and blessings. ❤️ "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth." John 1: 14

Mary Poppins

"for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure." Philippians 2: 13 ---- When a colleague at work asked if anyone had some tissues, I reached into my backpack to get some for her. "Your bag looks like Mary Poppins' bag," she said. "From now on I'm going to call you Mary Poppins." "Actually, Mary Poppins is one of my favourite films," I said. A few minutes later, the same colleague asked if anyone had any sweets. I looked in the side of my backpack and pulled out a tin of mints, which I shared with her and several colleagues. "See, you are Mary Poppins!" Funny enough, a previous housemate used to call me Mary Poppins because she said magical things happen around me. I believe it is God in me, with me and around me who makes wonderful things happen. ❤️ Photos of my backpack.  The image of Mary Poppins is courtesy of Google Images
