Walking with God

"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” Matthew 11: 28-30

Early start this morning at 5.30 am. When I took this photo, I was all alone at my local train station. I am grateful to have God's constant love and protection. I also give thanks for God's provision manifested as public transport. Blessings to all. ❤️

An old friend invited me to her place for lunch and a catch up. Although we attended the same secondary school in Sierra Leone, I wasn't friends with her then as she was in the year below me. Years later, we met in London when she came to look at a vacant room to rent in a shared house I was living in. Although we eventually became friends, we went through a phase when we lost touch for many years, but one day we literally bumped into each other on a tube platform. I later found she had been living in a flat right opposite the house I last lived in. At the moment, she lives about 20 minutes walk away from me. It just shows some people are meant to be in your life forever. Anyway, while I was at my friend's house, she said, "You know, you are the most Un-African African person I  know." "What do you mean?" I said. "You're just so different from any of the African people I know," she said. "People look at me and know I'm African. I ...

Before we start working at a venue, we are briefed about the venue and what is expected of us. If it's a client that offers a long term contract, the client will ask qualified agency staff to go for formal training. When it comes to the job, whether you're hosting an event or invigilating an art gallery, you are always representing both the client and your agency. When you are representing the client or duty/event manager, you are there to ensure visitors have a great experience while still protecting the art, contents and venue. You also have the authority to implement the rules of the client.  In other words, you are the eyes, hands and feet of the duty/event manager. If you have any issues that you can't resolve, you have to contact the duty/event manager for advice, support or ask for their intervention. When we are representimg our agency, we have to make sure we turn up on time, dress in the appropriate uniform and be professional at all times. In the same respect, as...

While I was writing my shopping list on my phone, I was thinking of buying these fruits, but I couldn't think of their names. I immediately reminded myself that "I have the Mind of Christ" and continued writing my list. Within a minute, the name of the fruits popped up in my thoughts - "easy peelers." Thank you, Jesus! I have lost count of how many times the Mind of Christ has reminded me of things I can't remember. I have the all-knowing Mind of Christ. ❤️ ---- Relevant Bible verse: "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

After working four long days at this  open day, where I was standing most of the time, I was booked for another long day at this art gallery.  As I was told it was going to be another event, I was expecting to be standing all day.  It turned out I was covering the lobby while staff were training. The art gallery was also closed to the public so only staff, builders and facilities team were going to be coming in and out. This  meant I would be sitting down all day except when I  had to go on my break. At one point, I was thinking that I wish I had my phone charger and glasses case with me. Immediately, this guy from the facilities team came in. After introducing himself, he said if I needed a quick break, he was happy to cover me. I quickly went to get my charger and glasses case. Our Father God truly knows all our needs and is constantly  providing them before we even ask. Thank you, Father God, for providing an easy shift. ❤️ ---- Relevant Bible verses: “I...
