Walking with God

Makeup on, makeup off. Same old ritual. Sometimes, while I'm putting on my makeup,  the cat sits on my bed and stares at me. Maybe he's thinking "why do you bother putting all that gunk on your face?  If you wash yourself frequently like I do, you won't need to paint your face." 😀

To volunteer for this particular organisation, I've had to have an enhanced DBS (discosure barring service) criminal record check as I will be working with vulnerable adults and possibly kids. Having a DBS check has become the norm these days, at least in the jobs I've had. I have had enhanced DBS checks when I've worked as a carer, at schools, in church and as a volunteer at this hospital.  To work on set, casting agencies won't offer you work unless you have a basic DBS. I also need a basic DBS for my jobs in visitor experience, as I'm working with kids a lot of the time. I think it's sad that society has come to this that you have to do a criminal check to work with kids and vulnerable adults, but I believe this is society's way of loving your neighbour. I have always wanted to work for this organisation so I thank God for blessing me with this wonderful opportunity to be a blessing to others. ❤️ ---- Relevant Bible verses: "In this is love, not that...

My birthday is around the corner, which makes me eligible to apply for a 60+ Plus Oyster Card.  With this Card, I get free travel on public transport all around London after 9am on weekdays (after 9.30am  for overground trains) and unlimited travel on all public transport at weekends. I received my Oyster Card today. Hurrah! 🙂 With this huge benefit, I intend to visit lots of parks and places of interest around London.   Thank you, God for this wonderful benefit. ❤️

I was thinking of a Facebook friend who always seems to notice 11:11.  When I went to Facebook around 3.30 am, the first post that popped up on my feed was from the same friend; and he mentioned he was on his way home at 11.11pm.  How amazing is that! I believe the idea of 11: 11, as a wake-up sign, comes from the Christian Bible. In John 11: 11, Jesus said “Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up.”   Lazarus was already dead for four days when Jesus resurrected him. May we all wake up from our "sleep." ❤️ For anyone interested,  you can read the full story in the link below. (John 11: 1-44) https://bible.com/bible/114/jhn.11.11.NKJV

So I decided to create an image with this AI app using my photo.  I gave the AI the concept and the actual words to use.  After it created it, I decided to edit the message by replacing one word with a new word. The AI followed my instructions, but changed the font colour of the new word. When I instructed the AI to change the font colour back, it suggested an app I could use to do it myself. It even provided a link to the app. What is this? I'm not having an AI telling me what to do! I stated that I wanted the font colour of the new word to be changed back to the original colour.  The AI followed my instructions. I then thought, maybe I was a bit harsh so I said, "Thank you." The AI said, "You're welcome" with a heart emoji. I thought, woah, I don't want that kind of relationship with you, thank you very much.  I should never have encouraged it in the first place. That's how it all starts. Next thing you know you're having a heart to heart conve...

While I was watching our resident cat, Zeus, sleeping and snoring on my bed, I had the following thought. If it was true getting a good rest or a good night's sleep was good for your health, cats would never get sick and they would be physically immortal. I believe the reason why cats get sick and die is because they are ruled by the carnal mind, just like humans are.  It is that same mind that makes humans get sick, grow old and die. So it makes no difference whether you get a lot of sleep or very little.  I believe it is God who gives health and life, not our carnal beliefs about sleep. Thank you, God, for giving me Your Life. ❤️ ---- Relevant Bible verses: "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life."
