God's instrument of Love


This is the sharing from my husband which somewhat blessed me this morning.

Two weeks ago, he went to Korea to oversee the inspection of his projects. We have prayed together before his departure that everything would be going well and fruitful and it would be his last business trip for this year.

This was the first time he met the German inspector and since this inspector was very senior, he's very strict and maintained his professionalism.
The first day of inspection, he almost marked the goods as "FAIL" because the appearances were not according to his expectation. My husband argued that he and his team has warned the client's team that it's impossible to do something on the goods and since the client insisted, that's the best thing they have done.

The inspector decided to check with his team and would let my husband know the next day.
He prayed very hard so it could "PASS".

The next day, the inspector told him that his team had no problem with the appearance and decided to remark the goods as "PASS"
My husband was delighted and told me that his prayer has been answered.

The second day of the inspection, everything was going well and all were "PASS"
The third day, it's a mess, because the goods have been contaminated, my husband was languid, he told me today's not a good day for him.

The fourth day of the inspection, everything was going well and he hoped that the last day would be another fruitful day.
On the opposite, the last day of inspection was a total mess and worse than all other days.

He's very tired physically and mentally and couldn't wait to go home.
When he's back, he still felt the pressure from the clients and the team.
Lacking of sleep, emotionally exhausted, he just kept quiet and I knew he's not in the good mood.
I didn't want to probe him further, I just prayed to God to provide whatever he needs.

I didn't know much about his works but one thing that I am pretty sure God knows the best and He never leave him alone.

Two days after he's back,  he served as communion minister at mass, God gave him encouragement words through the father's homily.
He said that it's not about the adversity but how we responded to this adversity that may affect and change our life.
After he came back from the mass, he seemed to find the strength back to face this challenges.

Day by day, God has directed him and what surprised me is he became a good friend of the inspector.
This inspector is a non-believer, but he feels comfortable talking with my husband even he loves to talk about his family and other works unrelated.

I told him, perhaps that what God wants him to do.
Through my husband, this inspector could see the truth and the light. It may not change the inspector's faith and belief but it brings him to know about God's love.

I feel blessed and always believe that God has put him in this job for something bigger than us.
If he can be the hand of God to touch other people's life, as his wife, I will be more than grateful to God.

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...
