I woke up at 1 am on the day I was to leave for Toronto. I was missing a few items and people at my job were excited for me. Away from the daily routine even though I love my job and coworkers. I am a last minute kind of person when packing but plan months in advance when going away. When my brother came back from Toronto I thought I want to go to. So here I am. Yesterday was a mess I go here at 10 and thought to go to the grocery store but my backpack was too heavy. I wandered aimlessly no signal on my phone (boost should be in Canada too). I took the bus to Kipling, then transfered to the subway to get to Union Station in the heart of Toronto. In this city 6-7 million people live there. The crosswalks are huge. The bus system since I don't drive is amazing. They have a mix of buses, subway, and streetcar. Once downtown I was going to find a McDonalds just to find something cheap to eat. Then I wound up finding a sushi place. My sisters would love this place which is called Bento Box. Then I headed back to Union station to seriously search for the Clarence Park. I asked the TTC worker if he knew where. Thank God the station had WiFi. I was able to get general direction where it was bus not specifics. I then proceeded to ask a guy at the bus stop. The guy decided to try to flirt and I flitted away. I would up getting lost but as we were passing God in His many kindnesses decided to have me look and we passed Clarence Square Park. I went down about 5 more stops before I thought to get off and look more closely at the park to see if it was near where I needed to go. God is so good. The place is nice. I am staying at a hostel and sharing a room with 7 other girls. I wound up at nice thinking that I could check out a dance class while I was here. I looked at the dance and decided against it. The good thing was that there was a market on the ground floor.
I used the subway system from Kipling to Union, then from King to North York so basically going to most of the stops on the subway system.
Now to talk about this morning. God is so good to me in that as I met with Him this morning in His Word. He impressed in me again the importance of Christian community. Having people to pray for you, to encourage you, to speak the word to you. It is a good thing. May God the ruler of heaven and earth show you more of himself in His Word.
What has been happening in God's mercy to be a woman who seeks the Lord above all things.
