Calm over the situation


We met our best friend over dinner last Sunday. They just came back from Scandinavia trip few weeks ago.
They shared about their unforgettable experience including the car accident in Iceland.
What caught me most was when they shared how the people there responded the fateful event like accident.

They told us that accident happened in the F road which was a lot of gravels and since suddenly it's snowing, they were not prepared. The car's tyres were slippery and they hit two motorcycles nearby. They were on the way to go to base camp for snow mobile activity.

After the car accident, they were very panic especially it happened in the foreign country and out of nowhere. Then there's a car coming and saw the accident happened.
The driver quickly was out from the car and check the motorcycles which have been hit by their car if there are victims. Thanks God, there's no casualty.

When they called the police, the police helped to contact the car rental company and informed them about the accident. The rental company asked them if there's any casualties or if the car was badly damaged. Thanks God, it's not as bad as it's but they were still in the state of shock because the bonnet was unable to close properly. Then the car rental company told them it's okay and just continued to their plan and enjoy the rest of the day.

After they reached the base camp and informed them about the car accident. The people there remained calm and told them that the police already informed them and they told our friend to go ahead with snow mobile experience and enjoyed it.

They were very surprised how calm the people there compare with Asian people.

It just reminded me that either good or bad in life, we should remain calm because we believe that God's in control of 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...
