Our Marriage Foundation -Reflection of 10 Years Wedding Anniversary


This bible verse was the gospel reading of our wedding day.
This verse is uncommon to be chosen during the wedding mass however we chose this verse because it's so close with our life, what we have gone through before we met each other and also what we have experienced the ups and downs during our courtship days before we said yes to each other.
We, ourselves were the living testimony on how God has done great things in our life. Without Him, we were nothing and would not be able to achieve what we have now.

Therefore we decided to use this verse during our wedding mass to constantly remind us that even in marriage life when we have each other, it's still not enough. We still need to hold into the main tree, the source of our life and love so that we could love, trust and treat each other as how God loves us.




These two verses were a reading passage in our wedding mass.
We chose those verses as a guidance for us how we should build our marriage life, how we should treat each other when we lived together as husband and wife.

As a husband, he needs to love his wife and his children, gives up his life, provides for his family as what God has called him to do so.
As a wife, she needs to be the pillar of strength, prayer sanctuary for the husband so that he can be a Christ-like and serving God through the little family that they built.

Submitting to husband doesn't mean that we obey and follow our husband blindly.
It's just an attitude how we humble ourselves to obey and trust our husband to protect, provide and love us as how we do to God.
Of course to be able to obey and trust our husband, we need to constantly pray for him so he can be a Christ-like.


To build strong foundation for our marriage and family life, we hold into this beautiful verse about love.
As our marriage is like pilgrimage journey, sometimes we failed here and there to apply this unconditional love in our marriage and family life.
But again, this verse always reminds us that God's love is perfect and unconditional and we should love each other like what God does to us.

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.

What to do when you don't know what to do

I’ve been absent from writing the blog for quite a while, as I felt there wasn’t any story worth sharing. But today, I want to share something that happened in August. For some time, I had been waiting and praying, asking God to show me whether I should persevere with this winter rental business. I often felt that all my efforts were in vain, and I had reached the end of my wits, unsure of what else to do. In my prayer, I asked God specifically for a sign: if there was even just one try-on appointment in August, it would mean that He still blesses this business and that it remains aligned with His plan. That very afternoon, I suddenly received a WhatsApp message from a man who wanted to arrange a try-on session for the next day. I replied quickly, asking for details — and to my surprise, he said 10 adults were traveling together! I immediately told my husband, though I also explained that we didn’t have enough stock for such a large group. My husband encouraged me to call and explain t...
