Easy Shift, Early Finish

After I booked a late shift finishing at 12 midnight and an early shift the next day, I was beginning to regret my decision. I decided to trust in God to work things out.

Before I went to do my evening shift, I prayed that it would be an easy shift. 

I was not only put in an easy position, the whole evening went so smoothly the event finished earlier than planned. Usually, some clients like to stick around to chat, but they didn't even hang around. The event manager let us leave early.

On the taxi home, I had an interesting chat with this young man about the pros and cons of driverless cars. He was understandably against it and I was on the fence. 😀

I arrived home around 12.15am, which meant I was asleep by 1am.

The next morning when I woke up, I was feeling tired. I said to myself  "none of me, all of You, God."  (Inspired by John 3: 30) I was instantly fully awake and full of energy. My flatmate's cat, Zeus, jumped on my bed and demanded cuddles, which I was happy to give him.

Thank you, God, for making everything work out for good. ❤️

Bananas

 A few days ago while I was grocery shopping, I wondered if I should get some bananas, but I decided not to as they don't last long. That's why I only buy a banana when I fancy one in that moment.  I got red grapes instead which last a lot longer. Yesterday, I didn't see my flatmate as I was already in bed by the time she got home. This morning when I went in the kitchen, I noticed my flatmate had left a note on the kitchen top for me to have these two bananas. I immediately gobbled one up. Thank you, God, for providing my bananas through my flatmate. ♥️ Photo of the note and bananas 😊

About Availability

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." ----- Last night I dreamt about my ex-boyfriend who is now a very good friend. In the dream, I was upset with him for not being there for me and forgetting my birthday.  When I woke up, I thought the dream was really silly.  Why would I care whether he forgets my birthday?  Besides, even though, we haven't been together for almost 10 years, he always remembers my birthday. This morning, I received a text from the same friend. He told me he recently had a minor operation and was recuperating at home.  He asked if I was available to visit him. I told him I was busy doing my laundry, but I could visit him in the afternoon, as he only lives about half an hour away from me by bus. He asked me to visit the next day instead if I was still available. Now it made sense why I had had that nonsense about my friend. I guess when you've known someone for 30 years, you're bound to be able to pick up on their vibe...
