Had a good chat with my mum.

After getting married, i made it a point to go back my aunt's house once a week to stay over night. The purpose of it is to keep my mum, aunt, cousin and susu company and update me anything under the sky.

There is always this burden when I go home, which is time allocation for each and everyone of my dearest. Sometime I will spend more time with my cousin, some with my aunt and seldom with my mum because she is always engrossed in her HK drama.

Time after time I start to feel a bit disheartened to communicate with my mum because she will ask me don't disturb her and leave her alone. This time round, I prayed, asking God to open a way for me to start a conversation with her. After the prayer, i walked into the room, and as usual lie on her bed and company her while she fold the paper money to be burnt for CNY and watching drama at the same time. I was about to give up after 5mins when she started chatting with me like a friend. Sharing with me her pek chekness at work, funny and challenging stuff she encountered. At that time, her dvd player was having some prob playing her fav show and I was like, "THANK YOU LORD!!!" I knew it in my heart. God answered my prayer immediately and literally.

Although most of the time she was the one sharing her story but i really enjoyed the time with her. it was straight 2 hrs chat and I was still amazed and in awe with God's immediate answering of my prayer. Indeed, I had a fruitful time spent with my mum...=)

Somehow, God is telling me don't give up. This is a life long marathon...


And yup we 4 ladies did lao yu sheng together. it was pretty d.i.y. My mum bought it from her friend in Msia and I tell you, it was enough to feed 10 ppl. Look at that! Anyway it was totally yummy because it was a modified version (no raw fish, mostly crunchy colorful biscuits) And I feel loved every time she buys food for me because I know it's her way of showing me she loves me =D

Xiaoyu laoshi's 2012 bdae celebration!







Yesterday is my fav laoshi's bdae, and shaomei had a brilliant idea by coming up with personalised design cake for laoshi. Don't you think it looks like her? it's from icing room. ;)

This post is specially dedicated to you laoshi. I know u will read my blog so i'm gg to write a very touching post to you haha.

Reflecting back when I first joined SBC, that's when you officially came back from Msia church to serve SBC. That time i do not know you at all but there were already alot praises about you that you are a very nice teacher. Till now you still are and I'm very fortunate, honored and thankful that we have u in SBC. And i always consider you as my dearest...

10 years had passed. I never see you any day to be lacking the zeal for God. I always look up to you and your passion for God too. Your willingness to step out from a teacher to become servant for God is what I'm really impressed about.

Your care and concern is what i'm always thankful and grateful for. i always felt comforted whenever you ask me how's things are, which made me feel u care about me, and there are so many people in church that you have to care for and i can see you gave equally much attention n concern to them! I just felt very blessed!

Thank you for your never ending encouraging words and love, especially the year when Liam was in Cambodia...you and Pastor Lucy are like angels that God sent to care for me. I will never forget the movie dates we have on mondays!:)

Lastly, your patience for us...

You have so much good qualities that i cannot finish praising about but laoshi, i want to tell you, i really cherish you and I am very happy to have you as my counsellor, teacher, sister in Christ and friend! Wishing you a blessed 2012, yes, to live for Christ! May Lord grants you new strength for each day!

A miracle witnessed today.

Hello guys, I'm back! After a year of resting and sorting out my thoughts, it's time i start blogging again. The purpose of blogging this time is very different. My main reason is to recorded every single blessing i experienced from God as I'm a very short term memory person. Plus as it approaches the end of 2012 i will always be amazed how much God has blessed me every single sec of my life, and also learn to give thanks in times of difficulty n trouble.

Today, as usual i was called into my boss room together with my manager. we thought it's gg to be a briefing on our weekly task. However, she said it's nothing about work but personal. she wanted us to come together and pray for a friend we know whose baby is gg for an operation to create a gap for the skull so that the brain has room for growth. The baby developed his skull too fast and thus the brain has no more room to grow. it was going to be a 4 hours operation and our friend was worried his baby couldn't take the trauma.

So, after knowing the background story, we started to pray. At that moment, it was very peaceful and we felt God's with us n our friend's family. Like my title suggested, we received good news! The operation was successful! Some people may brush it aside saying, maybe the doc is good or the baby is lucky. I personally do not believe in luck because I know everything happens for a reason, and God is behind all these. For a greater purpose. I had been through difficult times during 2009-2010 thus I can say it is only thru difficult times that people know they are mere humans and they have their limitations on certain things, and learnt to be humble. Managers, people high up the status are also willing to put down their status n come together to pray during these times.

It is too much luck if some people still want to put it that way. Nevertheless i thank God that the baby is safe ;)
