Travel Guide

"We love Him because He first loved us." 1 John 4: 19

----

While I was on the bus, I heard this young lady asking a passenger behind her if she was on the right bus?  The passenger told her she needed to catch the bus going in the opposite direction.  However, as the bus was on diversion, the passenger suggested for her to go downstairs and ask the bus driver where she could catch the bus back.

When we arrived at the next stop, I looked out of the window and saw the young lady had got off, but I knew it was the wrong stop and she would get lost. I was inspired to get off the bus and help her.

When I approached the young lady, she looked distraught.

"You are lost, aren't you?" I said.

She nodded.

"I heard your conversation on the bus and I know exactly where you need to catch your bus back. Come with me."

While I was walking with her, I could see she was speaking to someone on her phone. Presumably,  that was the person she was meant to be meeting up with.

When we arrived at the main road, I pointed to the bus stop where she needed to catch the bus back and wished her well. I then got on another bus to my destination. 

London can be confusing to foreigners. It doesn't matter if you use the map on your phone, you need to know how the travel system works. As God has given me that knowledge, I felt compelled to help that young lady on her journey.

Thank you, God, for constantly blessing me so I can be a blessing to others. ❤️

Jesus is Lord!

"...no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit." 1 Corinthians 12:3 ---- While I was relaxing in bed, I stretched one leg and I started feeling pain on my calf.   No, no, no! The pain quickly became a cramp. I called on the name of Jesus, but I could feel the pain getting worse. Just as I was about to get off the bed and put my foot down, I heard these words deep inside of me, "Jesus is Lord." I said the words out loud: JESUS IS LORD! The cramp immediately left my calf. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for your reminder that Jesus is Lord. ❤️ "Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty." 2 Corinthians 3: 17 Image of the cross courtesy of Google Images, but I added the text.

An Easy Day

Image
Before I went to work at this museum, I thanked God for an easy, fun and wonderful day. Half of my time was spent working in the gallery, where I was invigilating, and in the shop serving customers.  Although it was really busy with a constant flow of visitors and kids, I found it easy as God was working in me and through me My work colleagues were also very nice and helpful and I enjoyed working with them. I also enjoyed chatting to the parents and their kids. While I was tidying up an area of the gallery, I found this soft toy and I gave it to a colleague to look after. Later, I saw this boy sitting in the cafe with his mum and sister. I noticed he was carrying the toy I had found in the gallery. I told him I was glad he got his toy back. I asked him how old they were, he was six years old  and his sister was ten. The boy said his birthday was on the 27th December. I told him my nephew's birthday was also on that day. How amazing is that? At the end of the shift, our duty ma...

Letting Go of Grievance

Last night while I was working at  this concert, most of the guests I met were friendly and polite, but there was one particular guest who was challenging. After the event finished, I reported the experience to the duty manager and let it go, or so I thought. When I woke up this morning, the guest was still in my head. I asked God to help me let go of any grievance I was holding. I was reminded of Ephesians 4: 31-32.  Thank God for the Bible, which has the answer to every problem we have in this world. ❤️ ----- Related Bible verses: "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you." Ephesians 4: 31-32, NKJV  "Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor [perpetual animosity, resentment, strife, fault-finding] and slander be put away from you, along with every kind of malice [all spitefulness, verbal abuse, malevolence...
