Family is The Greatest Blessings




Today is beautiful day and I am so grateful, feeling peace and joy after entering His holiness.
My soul was brought back to Mt Hermon where we rode the chair lift to go up to summit.
It's a white pitch dark and we couldn't see anything only the next chair lift in front of us.
When we arrived there it's foggy and we couldn't see anything too, only persons next to us or perhaps few meters in radius from us.

I was freezing cold and my fingers started to turn into blue back, when I told my husband he quickly brought me to go inside and there's a small cafe and heater that I could warm myself up and he bought me a hot chocolate and chocolate croissant.



Then, God reminded me how much God loves me by sending my husband to my life.
He's the picture of God as masculine figure. My husband may not be a perfect husband but the way he treats me and the family is a glimpse of God's love to us.
He's a provider, protector, rule setter, and whom we as family can lean on.


God then brought me back to see my children. How beautiful they are and as I usually joke that we have holy trinity at home already.
He really shows me how blessed we are to have holy trinity at home.
My oldest son is like "Father", he's the one who protect and provide for his brothers whenever my husband is away on business trip
My second son is like "Son", he's obedience and love to serve his brothers
My youngest son is like "Holy Spirit", he's a comforter, always bring joy to us





When I contemplate that, I could say like what Mother Mary said

"My soul magnifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.
Because He has regarded the lowliness of His handmaid ; for behold, henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. Because He who is mighty has done great things for me and Holy is His name.
And His mercy is from generation to generation on those who fear Him.
He has shown might with His arm, He has scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart."

I told God what's been troubling me recently. Tomorrow is the day we will choose the unit for new house.
This new house is a blessing from God and we want to offer this house back to God so that it can be used as house of prayer.
We have sorted our preference units and we still haven't decided yet which unit we should take.
Then, God told me to let my husband choose.
He's been given the authority to provide and protect the family and this house as a symbol of that.
I was asked to pray the wisdom for him so that he could listen and obey God's answer through him.

I trust in God, I believe in Him and believe in my husband too whatever we will choose the unity tomorrow, it's from God. We will sanctify this new house and make our house as house of prayer.

Happy Valentine's Day 2023

This year's valentine is special. It's not just any celebration but it's a celebration of victory and marks the beginning of "new adventure". By God's grace and mercy, we reconciled during ME retreat last weekend. We were able to go back to where we were before the incident. I am full of love and able to share everything to hubby again. He becomes my best friend again, and it seems that love conquers all. And another challenge is now about "time". This first quarter is very busy period for me, traveling back and forth to Jakarta for business. Leaving my hubby and the kids behind is not a nice feeling eventhough there's a good thing on the other side of the coin as we are not taking each other for granted. As my gift of love, I want to give my precious time whenever I am available in Singapore to my hubby and the kids, thus in this valentine's day, I curated love coupons that he can redeem. Hopefully, this is something that can help us to comm

New Year Eve 2022

I am planning to hibernate during New Year Eve, sit down and doing some reflections and thinking about New Year resolutions, alas things may not happen according to my plan. I am very tired physically from the Malaysia trip. What I really want to do just sleep in and do nothing but what make me tired mentally is we fight over trivial matters. It started well this morning, we brought the kids out to West Coast for breakfast and strolled in the park. Hubby asked me what will be the plan for today as he wanted to give some year end speeches to the kids. I told him, I had no plan at all as I was very tired. I just wanted to stay at home and rest. He was quiet but I didn't notice it as I was quiet too to reflect what I have done this year and what will be my new year resolutions. When we went home everything was normal, I asked our helper to clean our car and did grocery for next week meals. While waiting the car wash done, I wrote this blog about our Malaysia trip. After she's done

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 7)

This is the highlight of Cappadocia which is hot air balloon ride. As it depends a lot on the weather, we were lucky that we could fly to watch sunrise. We were picked up around 5.30am in the morning to Urgup area and arrived 20 mins later. They provided us with light breakfast while they lit up the balloon.  We started riding it around 6.20am and it's so breathtaking to see the Goreme area and hundreds of balloon joining us. The sunrise is around 7am and by 7.30am we already landed safely.  We had champagne celebration and received certificate too and returned back to our hotel for breakfast. Around 10am, we were picked up for Green Valley tour. Stopped by at Goreme Panorama and Pigeon valley for photo spots. After that, we went to Underground city where Anatolian people lived underground to survive from natural disaster and dangers. It's amazing how they build the houses and lived there for a long period of time. Then, we continued our tour to Selime Monastery and Cathedral w
