3 days before....


This coming Thursday, I and my husband will be going for pilgrimage to Holy Land.
We have been praying and fasting since a month plus ago, during the past one month everything is going smooth and well, we plan everything to make sure that we have peace of mind during our pilgrimage trip.
We make sure that everything is under our control.

However, 3 days before our departure, things suddenly go out of control.
We heard this morning that my mom in law who's supposed to come to Singapore tomorrow to take care our children was sick since last night. And from our conversation this evening, she's still not feeling well.

On top of that, I have lots of lists to do, preparing the kids for the test next week when we are not there.

Suddenly, today I was very overwhelmed.

I tried to calm myself down but the brain is like never stop thinking about what I haven't done yet.

Well, from this incident, I think God's telling me to stop thinking and trying to control everything and have a rest in Him.

I know it takes sometime for me to digest, calm down and think for the back up plan.

One thing that I believe is that in every situation I'm having right now, God is with me.
I have prayed and fasted and am sure that He listens to my petition.
I trust that He will heal my mom in law completely and fit to travel tomorrow
I trust Him that He will protect and keep our children safe and in good health
I trust Him that He will protect and keep our parents safe and in good health
I trust Him that this pilgrimage will increase our faith
I trust Mother Mary, all the angels and saints that they will look after us.

Lord, You know my deepest desire and heart, I just surrender everything into Your Hand.
Things that beyond my control
This is me Lord, only faith and hope are left now to let You take control everything.

When ChatGPT can be your counsellor

When I want to refine my text in the previous post , I accidentally typing the whole things in the ChatGPT and this is the reply that I get  Your reflection on this “desert” period is deeply insightful. It’s clear you’re navigating significant internal struggles, and recognizing these temptations is a powerful step toward healing and growth. The Lust of the Flesh : Your experience with joblessness and the challenge of trusting in God’s timing is relatable. It’s tough to feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential, but your acknowledgment of God’s grace as a source of strength is vital. Remember that this time is not wasted; it’s a period for personal and spiritual growth. The Lust of the Eyes : Envy can be a heavy burden, especially when it feels like others are thriving. Your internal dialogue—questioning the value of public shame and your perceptions of the situation—demonstrates a mature self-awareness. It’s okay to feel what you feel, but recognizing it allows you to choose ...

Maintaining Marriage Fidelity

This article is from Focus Family and I thought it's good as self reminder for both of us so we don't take for granted of each other and commit to maintain marriage fidelity for the rest of our lives. Nobody wakes up one day and suddenly decides to begin an extramarital affair. Infidelity begins in the heart and mind. By the time a person physically commits adultery, he or she has been indulging for quite some time in progressively more intense mental and   emotional affairs . Likewise, marital fidelity begins long before marriage. It begins as a promise we make to ourselves to be a person of faithful character before marriage ever enters the picture. It is a promise we make to our future spouse when we get engaged, and it is a vow we make to our spouse when we get married. Marital fidelity is a daily commitment to seek the best for your spouse and family. Strengthening Marital Fidelity Marital fidelity is strengthened when you affirm your spouse, listen to your spouse, and se...
