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, who knows the truth and is Truth, I am at peace and know all is well.

Thank you, Jesus, for being the Truth. I trust in You. ❤️

Obedience

Before the children's show I was working on started, my colleagues and I were in the foyer welcoming parents and their kids, directing them to the theatre and showing others where to park their buggies.  I noticed one colleague was speaking to this man.  She told us the man said after he gave his Bible to a homeless man, God told him to come to this arts centre and get a Bible.   Why would God send him to an arts centre that specialises in music, drama and dance? I suggested he could download a Bible app, if he needed instant access to a Bible. I even recommended an app I use, but  the man was adamant that God had told him to get a Bible at this arts centre. While my colleague continued to chat to the man, I focused on welcoming guests to the arts centre. Finally I saw the man holding a Bible. Apparently, my colleague always carries a Bible with her which she has been studying. As she was speaking to the man she was inspired to give him her Bible. We were all am...

The Cross is My Landmark - Revisited

This post was previously posted on my previous blog . ----- "Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." Galatians 3; 13-14 ---- While I was walking at Regent's Park, I could see BT Tower in the distance, which I used as my landmark to guide me to where I was headed. I know I'm headed in the wrong direction if I can no longer see any part of the BT Tower. It got me thinking of the cross that Jesus was crucified on. I believe the cross is a landmark that reminds me of the price Jesus's crucifixion paid for all humanity for all time. If I am ever feeling"lost" physically, emotionally or spiritually,, all I need to do is either think of the cross or look at a representation of the cross and I'm back on track. Thank you, ...
