God's Protection

I was so sorry to hear about the train collision in Bedford (southeast of England), which killed the driver and injured many passengers. May God comfort the driver's family and loved ones and pour His healing grace on those who are injured. As someone who is constantly travelling on public transport - buses, tubes (underground trains), trains - I do so with the constant awareness that I move in Christ who is my constant protection. He is the one in control of my journeys. God bless all those involved directly and indirectly in the collision.  Thank you, God, for Your constant protection. ❤️ ----- Relevant Bible verses: "Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place, No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone." Psalm 91:  9-12 “God, who made the wor...

God at Work

So I was booked for an early and long shift at this event.  I planned to leave home at 5.15am to catch the train. While I was getting ready for work, I asked God to make the upcoming shift easy, fun and wonderful.  I also asked Him to make it so easy that I don't have to do anything. 😂 My journey to work was very easy and I arrived at work around 6.45am for a 7am start. At the theatre, I was allocated at, I checked the schedule. The talks were 20 mins long, back to back. My colleagues and I were required to scan visitors in, do queue management, ensure visitors had headsets and clean them after the talks finished, and make sure the theatre was clean.  We were even one staff short. It turned out we only had to scan visitors for the first talk, which was extremely busy. At the end of that talk, the organisers  came round to help us clear the theatre and clean the headsets. We also had a cleaner in to clean the theatre.  For the rest of the the talks, the scanning...

Hug Stop

While I was out walking at the park with my friend, we spotted this heart shape on the path with the words, "Hug Stop."  So we stopped, stood in the heart shape and gave each other warm hugs. What a lovely idea! Love hugs. ❤️

Trusting in Jesus

While I was travelling on the bus in south London, I noticed a bus with the destination "Foots Cray" which I found rather amusing.  I decided to write a post about it on Facebook.  An error message came up that it wasn't posted so I discarded that post.  I tried again, but the same message came up and I discarded it. I wondered if my post had been censored for some reason. When I visited my friend at the hospital, I told her about my attempt to post about Foots Cray.  I came up with reasons why it hadn't been posted. Maybe it was a secret code or it's a crazy name?  We had fun with those ideas. When I left the hospital, I took a photo of a tree near the hospital and posted it on Facebook and there was no problem.  I then noticed a friend's post saying he was grateful Facebook was now back. Aha, so that's why I couldn't post hours earlier. When I don't have the full picture, I make up stories and scenarios that are not true. When I trust in the Lord...

Funny Names

So I discovered there is a place in south London called Foots Cray. There's also a road in south London called Ha Ha.  I think I'll stick to living in north London, we've got more sensible names. 😂  Here is a photo I took while I was in south London. At least they still have trees 

Michael Jackson Fan?

Zeus, my flatmate's cat, doesn't like noise. The moment we start chatting near him, he's off.  The worse thing I can ever do to him is sing, as he finds my voice irritating.  While I was getting ready for work, I was watching Michael Jackson's video, "Beat It" on my laptop. Zeus came in my bedroom to say hello. He not only sat down next to the laptop, he didn't mind me singing along and ruining the song. He even rubbed his head against the laptop. When the next Michael Jackson video,  "Smooth Criminal", came on, he sat quietly and listened to it. Zeus was either putting up with the noise because he loves me or he's a fan of Michael Jackson. 😂

If I am What I Eat

If we are what we eat, I should have fins as I eat a lot of tuna. I also eat a lot of red grapes, which turns me into wine. I eat lots of pasta as well. I have no idea what that makes me! 😂 Thank you, God, for providing foods that I love. ❤️ Photo of my meal - jacket potato with tuna mayonnaise and sweet corn
