Walking with God

Years ago, I worked at this After School Club. The kids were aged between 3 and 5 years old. Part of my role was supervising the kids while they played outside. One time I noticed this little boy, aged around four, hogging the football. The other boys complained to me that he wasn't sharing the ball. I told the boy the ball belonged to the school which meant they all had to share and play together. The next day, I notced the same boy hogging the ball. I said to him, "Who does this ball belong to?" "The school, Miss," he said. "And?" "It means we have to share the ball, Miss." "Good boy!" The boy then threw the ball to the other boys and they had fun playing football. The very next day,  I noticed the same boy hogging the ball. I had to repeat the same conversation I had with him the previous day and kept repeating myself until he finally got it. When we become born again Christians by receiving Jesus as our personal Lord an...

Two days ago, a work colleague told me she was thinking of going to Abbey Wood to explore the area. I made a mental note that I would like to do the same sometime. Early this morning,  I  looked up if it was possible to get to Abbey Wood by bus. The map told me it would take 2.5 hours by bus or 1.5 hours by tube. I then looked up which places I could visit there.  A few hours later, while I was working at this transport museum, these two boys came in with their mum. One of them told me excitedly that he was going to catch a bus to Abbey Wood. I said, "Really, how wonderful!" Wow, I wonder if that kid was reading my thoughts? 😳

"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want." Psalm 23: 1 ---- Thank you, God, for giving us trees, which provide much needed shade in hot weather. Here are some trees that have provided shade from the heat. Some of them were next to the bus stop. I stood in the shade instead as the bus stop shelter was too hot. ❤️🌳

This teaching, based on Philippians 2: 14-15, really convicted me about the things I used to murmur and complain about.  I am so grateful to the Holy Spirit for bringing this to my attention through Duane Sheriff. ❤️ Philippians 2:14-15 NKJV [14] Do all things without complaining and disputing, [15] that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,  Philippians 2:14-15 AMP [14] Do everything without murmuring or questioning [the providence of God], [15] so that you may prove yourselves to be blameless and guileless, innocent and uncontaminated, children of God without blemish in the midst of a [morally] crooked and [spiritually] perverted generation, among whom you are seen as bright lights [beacons shining out clearly] in the world [of darkness], https://youtu.be/ZX6xi5lP_t8?feature=shared

Of all the movies about Jesus, the visual Bible of the Gospel of John (the Good News Translation) is my absolute favourite. Since I discovered it on YouTube, I've been watching it at least once a month. God bless all. ❤️

Some things like pain aux raisins can never be anglicised. It's my favourite pastry because I love raisins. Thank you, God, for givng us this pastry through the French. ❤️ Photo from Google Images

Usually on a long bus journey, I sit upstairs. This time,  I decided to sit on the lower deck, right at the back. At some point, this woman got on and asked if she could sit where I was sitting as she had a painful knee. I  moved to the vacant seat next to her.  She kept muttering to herself about how people in London are not very caring. I had a feeling my travelling companion was not only experiencing physical pain, but emotional pain as well.  I said to her, "God bless you!" After making small talk, she opened up to me about a friend she had lost recently. She said after she called his mobile phone, he didn't call her back which was out of character. A few days later, her friend's death was announced on Facebook.  My friend said she couldn't understand how someone who was in such good health and only aged 55 could die so suddenly. She even showed me her friend's obituary, which had his photo. Both of us got off at the same stop. Before we parted company, I...
