Independent but Dependent on God

When I work at museums, I encounter lots of kids with their parents. I have observed that parents like to give their kids freedom to be independent and explore things for themselves. If the kids are deemed too young, we insist that they stay with their adults and are supervised by them. I believe it's not enough for parents to teach their kids how to be independent, kids should be taught how to be dependent on God who is their source. If they find themselves in difficulty and lack, they are trained to look to God for help. God will either intervene directly or work through a person to help them. The greatest inheritance I received from my mum was her Christian faith. Even when I rejected it, the teachings I had received as a child were still working in me and eventually drew me back to God. For instance, my mum told me when I was four years old, I had already memorised Psalm 1, even though I couldn't read or write. Now I live those principles taught in Psalm 1. Parents, teach y...

Patrick Stewart

A few days ago, I had this feeling that a huge celebrity was about to pass away that the media would be writing about for days. I had no idea who it would be. I was still shocked when I heard that the actor, Patrick Stewart, had passed. He was the last person I expected.  Unfortunately, there will be others. The saddest thing, for me, is Patrick Stewart was an atheist. I hope he did repent before he passed, otherwise, according to my faith, his soul will end up in a Godless place. Farewell Captain Picard and Godspeed. ❤️

Harmless Fun, Not!

When I went to work at this particular museum, I was happy to see a work colleague as I had been hoping to give her some Star Trek badges I thought she would appreciate, as she's also a huge fan of Star Trek. She was very grateful. Later, while we were still in the staff room, the same colleague came in wearing a black pointed hat and a black gown.  It was then I realised it was the Halloween season. If I had remembered, I would have cancelled that booking. My colleague told me as it was half-term, the museum had been very busy. They had been doing Halloween activities for kids. Another colleague came in wearing an orange pointed hat. At the staff briefing, the events manager told us about the Halloween events taking place. Later, I told two colleagues that I don't see Halloween as harmless fun as I know these demons are real and people are summoning them. I told them I have been attacked by demons before and one of them was around the Halloween season. I said at the time, I wa...

Knowing What You Have in Christ

From time to time, I work at corporate events for this particular agency. I've noticed I haven't received job offers for quite a while by email or on my profile and I wondered why. I decided to email them to ask them why I was no longer receiving job offers.  I received an immediate response to let me know there were lots of job offers, but I wasn't applying for them. They said if I wasn't seeing the jobs, I should get help from the company that runs the staffing software. Long story short, I discovered since they updated that software, the jobs are being posted on a different tab. That's why I couldn't see the job offers as I was looking in the wrong place.  I was able to book a job which was instantly confirmed. It got me thinking of our Christian faith.  I believe God has already given His children all they need in Jesus Christ.  However, if you don't know what you already have in Christ, you're not going to be able to receive them. Thank you, God, fo...

God’s Health Service

People are constantly complaining about how the national health service is broken beyond repair.  That's why it now takes ages to see a doctor or be referred to see a specialist. You only have emergency treatment if your need is considered urgent. I beg to differ.   As I see it, the national health service is not broken, it's simply a man-made system with limited resources that is trying to take care of too many people dependent on it. Hence the long waiting list. For instance, my flatmate was telling me she has been waiting for months to have a referral to see a specialist for an issue. She said her friend has also been waiting a long time to have an eye operation.  I told her in traffic all cars have to give way to ambulances, fire engines and police cars with their sirens on.  Where there is no emergency, those vehicles have to follow the traffic like everyone else. I said when you pray, your need is like an emergency vehicle with a siren on and you jump the ...

Styling Gel

I was thinking of getting a new styling gel as the one I was using was not giving me the hold I prefer.   I searched online and noticed a few products that looked promising. There were also lots of video clips, but I didn't fancy sitting through them.   God will show me the right product. I then got ready for work. I decided to travel on the early train. After that I got on the tube. I immediately noticed this passenger with short afro hair.  I loved the texture of her hair.  I had an idea to ask her what product she was using.  When the passenger sitting next to her got off, I moved and sat on the seat. I told the woman I loved her hair texture and asked her what product she waa using on her hair. She looked up the product on her phone and showed it to me. I  took a photo of the product and then thanked her. I realised it was one of the products I had seen when I had done my research. After work, I stopped off at this store that sells afro hair p...
