1 Day before...


Yesterday, it was the revelation of what has happened in the past few days.
My mom in law was still sick but recovering better.
I was expecting another drama and only hope one day passes without any surprises.

Then the reading was from Sirach 4 : 11-19
It's like the answer from God about what has happened.

Wisdom teaches her children and gives help to those who seek her.
Whoever loves her loves life, and those who seek her from early morning are filled with joy.
Whoever holds her fast inherit glory, and the Lord blesses the place she enters.
Those who serve her minister to the Holy One ; the Lord loves those who love her.
Those who obey her will judge the nations, and all who listen to her will live secure.
If they remain faithful, they will inherit her ; their descendants will also obtain her.
For at first she will walk with them on tortuous paths ; she will bring fear and dread upon them,
and will torment them by her discipline until she trusts them. and she will test them with her ordinances.
Then she will come straight back to them again and gladden them, and will reveal her secrets to them,
If they go astray she will forsake them, and hand them over to their ruin.

From those incidents in the past few days, it turned out to be better in general perspective.
I know the true value of family. 

When I have no clues what I should do, my mom instead of freaking out, calmed me down and persuaded my dad to come over to help.
His saying yes was like assurance for me that nothing is more important than family.

In short, my mom and dad are the ones minding the children while we are away.

Secondly, with my mom and dad here, I'm having more peace of mind because they can look out for each other.
And 28 Feb is my mom and dad in law anniversary, I'm glad that both of them also can be together despite she's not in the good state.

And this also draws me closer to God and trust Him more. 
I only can say THANK YOU SO MUCH to Him and entrusting what I will leave behind for another 12 days before coming back to do my mission.

Birthday Trip to Vietnam - Hanoi (Cafe hopping)

We spent our  last day in Hanoi  doing what we love most— café hopping ! The day started with a local breakfast of  Banh Cuon , a soft steamed rice roll filled with minced pork and mushrooms, quite similar to  chee cheong fun  but with its own Vietnamese twist. Light yet flavorful—perfect to kick off the morning. Next, we visited  Café Giang , the birthplace of the famous  egg coffee . Rich, creamy, and unlike any coffee we've had before—it’s a must-try when in Hanoi. Our last café stop was  The Note Coffee , a cozy and cheerful little spot decorated from floor to ceiling with colorful  sticky notes  left by visitors from all over the world. Their  iced coconut coffee  was refreshing and delicious—definitely a highlight. Since our hotel was located near  Train Street , we couldn’t resist visiting it multiple times— three to be exact!  We even had dinner there one evening, enjoying the thrill of the train zooming by ju...

As for me and my house will serve you Lord

Finally, I’ve joined the boys in serving at the Eucharist. It’s not my time, but His time. Two of the communion ministers were unable to serve on Sunday morning and requested to move to the Saturday sunset Mass. This left the group leader looking for replacements — and he thought of me, knowing that my hubby has been serving at Mass for 10 years. I said “yes” to the invitation, and so began my journey: the commissioning Mass on 3rd August, a Day of Recollection on 9th August, and my very first duty on 10th August. It is such a privilege to offer Jesus, in the Body of Christ, to His sheep. As I looked into the eyes of each parishioner receiving the Body of Christ, I saw so many different expressions. My prayer is that this gift of the Body of Christ will strengthen them in their journey, whatever season of life they are in.
