Au Revoir 2020

365 days are gonna pass

2020 has given us a lot of surprises

Things may not work according to our plans

But God's grace and providence surpass all

Eventhough some people may though it's been an awful year because of covid-19, there are many good things come from this.

It's a good reminder to what are the most important things in our life.

For me, 

1. Health is our wealth


 Without good health, we are nothing. Even though we have a lot of money, it will make no use. We want to do good deeds but if we are sick, it won't happen. Our body is a temple of God and we are accountable to take care of it as our acknowledgement and gratitude for His beautiful creation

2. Family is our breath


This year we have an opportunity to travel during Chinese New Year just before the lockdown, after that we never meet face to face again. We missed our parents, food, hometown. However, as a consolation, we still have our family and relatives here in Singapore. Things that we always take for granted.

3. Time is irrevocable

Time flies very fast, if we don't manage it well, it will be gone like a snap of the finger. During the covid, we are forced to work from home. It may not comfortable in the beginning but after sometimes, we adapt to work life balance. There are times that we need to slow down to speed up. There are times that we need to pause for a while before moving forward. 

4. Friendship is our pillar


We are blessed that we have true and good friends within our community. We are able to share our joy and burden and pray for each other. We laugh and cry together with them. It's our pillar of strength in this journey of 2020.

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...
