God is at Work

"...for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure." Philippians 2: 13

-----

While I was working at the shop in this museum, I noticed this visitor was wearing this beautiful fuchsia coat.  After I complimented her, she told me where she had bought it from.

While we were chatting, she told me she and her friend were taking their kids to see the film, "Wicked."  I told her I worked as an extra in that film and she said she was a costume designer in the same film. She has also worked as a costume designer in another film I've worked on. How amazing is that?

Another visitor had this beautiful coat on and I was very curious to feel it. After I complimented her, she asked me a question about events in the museum which I answered. As if she was reading my thoughts, she invited me to feel her coat. It felt luscious. I reckon it was real fur.

Later on, another visitor looking around the shop said hello. She said it must be nice working in that shop.  I told her I work for an agency that specialises in museums, art centres and galleries. She said the agency she works for promotes brands. She asked me what the name of my agency was and I gave her the contact details. I also shared the name of another agency I work for that specialises in events.

I believe God's blessings are everywhere including meeting random strangers at work. Love allows His blessings to be shared. 

Thank you, God, for arranging those meetings. ❤️

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...
