Love your God and God will provide

When we were in Holy Land, our spiritual advisor told us that many people after coming back from Holy Land received lots of blessings in terms of material blessings.
I and my husband when we heard about that, thought well it may be true because their life and attitude changed thus everything is going well and right. But it won't come in any instant.

However, what happened was the opposite of our thought.
When we just landed back to Singapore, my husband received a message from his ex-boss that his previous company was hiring and they thought of my husband. The salary reduced as the workload too.

Then, few days after that, his ex-colleague also informed him that her company was hiring and she thought of my husband. She has spoken to her boss and asked him to send the resume.
He reluctantly sent the resume.

He didn't want to leave this company at first because he felt that God's plan has not finished yet.
Here, there's no pressure from the boss, he did his work on his own, no politics, and able to enjoy the company benefits, near to our house etc.

But God always loves to surprise us.

He finally met with the Managing Director of the company he submitted his resume and this MD loved his attitude and in the end, they gave him an offer.

It came as a surprise, eventhough the salary only increases in a small portion but he feels that he could contribute more there than in the current company.
He asks my wisdom and advises too while he's also praying if this is God's will.

Then, I found this beautiful verse from the bible.


It's like an affirmation for him.
His mission is no longer money oriented but how he could contribute himself, mentoring and coaching to pass his knowledge to others.

And that's God's promises that He will send the rain and watch over the land if we obey and put Him first above anything.


In the end, he decided to resign and look forward to join new company in 2 months time.

What amazed us is 2 months after coming back from Holy Land, our life, heart and mind have changed. Our motivation is no longer worldly things. We are called to be His donkeys to touch other's people life.
We feel that God will provide our needs so we have more important mission than just worldly things.

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
