The Lord is near to all who call on Him

God is so good and He always is. 

I started having flu-like symptons on Monday and seeked doctor's consultation. As the pandemic is still on-going, I had some worries that I may have contracted Covid-19 and if so, I would not be able to care and be with my son. 

On Wednesday, I received news that my results for swab test was negative. Praise the Lord! 

On Thursday evening, I had to moderate for the Workers' Party Youth Wing Instagram Live Mother's Day Edition. Before the session, as usual I had stomachache. I had related to some that this is the thorn in my flesh. I believe this made me more humble and grateful. As I was settling in, I told my helper that I would usually also lose my voice when I experience flu. Hurriedly, I did a couple of things, such as, pumped out some breastmilk, changed clothes, opened up my script and placed my phone at the right angle etc. 

Finally, as I commenced the session with my guests, I enjoyed the entire session thoroughly with very little issues. After the session, I almost lost my voice totally.

It was so amazing that the Lord sustained me and helped me whenever I called on His name!

"The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth." Psalm 145:18

Acquaintances with Benefits

When I was young (in upper primary), my birthday wishes were similar.  It was to have many friends.  That could be due to the fact that I am an only child and may feel lonely at times.  Thanks to my best friends (you know who you are), I seldom feel lonely.  I can easily identify who my best friends are.  They are people I would ask for opinions on important decisions I have to make, meet relatively regularly (at least bimonthly, quarterly) for chit-chat and my life would have been very different without them. According to Robin Dunbar , in order to maintain stable social relationships where an individual knows who each person is, and how each person relates to every other person.  Friends are essentially different from acquaintances.  Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2. Classmates/schoolmates/coursemates you have encountered casually; #...

Personal Perspective on CHC Fiasco

My personal perspective on the City Harvest Church fiasco: #1. God is omnipresent (present everywhere), omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and God knew about this episode. I believe God is watching.; #2. The CAD does not charge without concrete evidence (they have taken sufficient time to investigate - 2 years). May justice prevail.; #3. It is unavoidable for members of the public with little information about Christianity to judge.  It is also one of my weaknesses to be quick to judge/form negative impression about others, which is unhealthy.; #4. I believe to a certain extent, the message of giving and tithing is relatively strong in City Harvest Church - I may be wrong.  (fyi, I have visited the church a couple of times) My personal belief is that it is important to give to God because God is the creator of everything that exists. He owns everything and we are simply stewards of what we have been entrusted with.  Though I h...

Outlier

It is always amazing meeting outliers. One who respectfully defies what ageing means in recent decades.  It is awesome to encounter a senior (almost twice my age) who is fitter than me. So inspiring! She embodies the example of good stewardship and living well in the last trimester of life 🧓🏻💛
