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.

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...
