Two Types of People

Before I went to work, I decided to stop off at this shopping centre to buy some food for lunch. I had to go through one shopping centre to get to the one I wanted. The first centre has lots of heavy doors you have to push to get through. I was walking right behind this man. After the man pushed the first door, he left the door open for me. I also left the door open for the person behind me. He did the same for the second door and I made sure I left the door open for the person behind me. Ditto the third door. At the last door, although I was now about two seconds behind the man, he waited for me with the door open. I thanked him and left the door open for the person behind me. I then went to do my shopping in the other shopping centre. On the way back I walked through the doors for the disabled where you can push the button and it opens for you. I noticed this man on the other side  pushing the door and walking through. He didn't bother to check if there was someone behind him. Th...

Nine Lessons and Carols

Image
This evening, I attended the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols service. The church was packed full. I enjoyed belting out those Carols. "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" is one of my favourites.  I also love the nine Bible lessons.  I remember reading the 9th Lesson (John 1: 1-14) many years ago at a Carol service. I still remember those verses and they made me fall in love with the Gospel of John. It's wonderful to be reminded every year what Christmas is really about. Thank you, Jesus. ❤️

When I start wondering what to wear for work, I jazz things up a bit and wear.... more black. 😀 Thank God for uniforms and black outfits. ❤️

A Real Gentleman

As I was walking to the tube station, I was thinking about how I am walking in Jesus Christ. My walk felt very gentle. When I got on the tube, there were no seats left so I found a place to stand. Suddenly, I felt this gentle hand on my shoulder. When I turned round, I realised the hand belonged to this man who had got up and was offering me his seat.  I thanked him and sat down. Right at that moment, I felt the gentlemanliness of Jesus expressing through that man. Thank you, Jesus, for being a real Gentleman.  ❤️ ---- Relevant Bible verses: “God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands. [25] Nor is He worshiped with men’s hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. [26] And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, [27] so that...

Candy Dance

Image
I was working at another corporate Christmas party. This particular crowd was quite formal and seemed more interested in chatting than the music. Eventually, the DJ managed to get some of them on to the dance floor. The funniest part, for me, was when the DJ played the Candy song and was encouraging all of them to participate in the Candy dance. That didn't go down too well. 😀 I don't think the DJ had the right playlist for that particular audience.  It didn't stop me having a good workout to a few of the songs. Our boss even invited us to the kitchen to have food as they had so much leftover and I had some.  Perk of the job. Thank you, God, for another fun job. ❤️ Here's an old video of people dancing to the Candy song.

The Problem with AI

Image
Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of technology, but I also believe they should be used to glorify God not used to mimic or replace God.   Caution is advised in their use. Here's a very interesting video about why we should be cautious about AI.

Lord of the Manor

Image
My flatmate told me when Zeus fell asleep on her coat, she didn't have the heart to wake him up so she wore another coat instead.  I said to her, "You are spoling that cat. I would have woken him up and got him off my coat." Having said that, there have been times when Zeus has been asleep on my lap and I have stifled my cough as I didn't want to disturb him as he doesn't like us coughing near him. Yep, that cat is in control. Thank you, God, for Zeus. ❤️ Here's a photo, taken today, of Zeus living his best life. 😀
