My Life
What is certain in life is that it's full of uncertainties. So I am gonna hide under His Wings. I don't wanna be found anywhere else.

Fast pace

So far it has been a fast-paced 2 days. Submitted a proposal paper. Taught 4AB, and 3EFG.
Enjoyed teaching 3EFG. There are only 13 of them. Small and easy to manage. It has been very personal and I could give them personal attention. The good feeling is that at the end of the lesson, I know I had helped them to overcome areas they are not sure.

The challenge will be tomorrow. I am teaching 2I. The class known for the giving teachers tough times. I must confess that it took quite a abit of prayer and thinking before I finally decide to choose to teach them. They are not easy and I am not sure I got the energy to 'manage' them. Yest, I am excited. Cos a number of them will need lots of TLC (tender loving care). I feel that i am going back to my root - to teach and touch lives.

God is my strength and help. Amen.

Started work

Today, my term started. Had meeting from 9 am till 6.30 pm. That is because I had to get home to help settle dinner for my children. Otherwise, I will still be slogging it out at the board room!

I am detressed though. Not of work but my wife is experiencing a recurring skin infection. It is painful and look like a minor op to clear the infaction is the option. Will know when she goes to the doc tomorrow. How is she going to look after 3 of them?!

Just yesterday, I was applying moistueriser for Karis and her hairs happen to drop on the cap. And mysteriously, they formed the letters JC. I was reminded of Jesus Christ.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:27

On our own.. but not alone

Finally, the confinement nanny has left. This means we are not alone, looking after 3 children.

I must say that I am so glad that she is leaving. She is not sincere, and she got the cheek to demand ang bao (which I will give even if she didn't ask for it) and then ask for transport fees plus medical fees which we did not cause her to be unwell! My past 2 nannies had never ask for that! Was really angry by such unreasonable person. Our past nannies never ask to leave house to visit friend. This is the first time!!

Anyway, the afternoon went well. The challenge will be when wife is alone with the 3. It will be very very challenging. To meet their needs and growth and the tight schedule too.

But I am reminded that we are not alone. GOD IS WITH US - EMMANUEL!! Christmas is not just about savlation story, it is a story of assurance! Amen.

Grandma - part II

When I was young, she fed me porridge. I remember clearly one of the meal. I suppose I remember it because it warms my gut and my heart. It was simple plain teochew porridge. The dish was fishcake, cut into small cute and soya sauce added on it. She fed me mouth by mouth. It was simple dish but rich with love. When I saw her feeding my son and daughter some months ago, I just could not help but reminisce that warm feeling.

She was the one who bought me to her mahjong session. She asked me to stand on her tigh when rheumatism attack her legs. She was the first one to visit me when I was P. Tekong when i had my basic military training. It was a great surprise to me. Up till today, I still can't figured out how a old lady, without knowledge of English knew how to locate me. She didn't even know my name in English! That's how determined she is.

I am her first grandson and I think that has it priviedge of getting more attention. I probably had gone out with her more than the other grandchildren.

I pray that God will bless her with peace and good health. I pray for her to have Jesus.

Grandma

Went to my grandparents' place to pay them a visit after church. My grandma just got discharged from hospital. She has to go for dialysis three times a week.

Was shocked when the maid told me that she was in hospital. Ambulance came to fetch her at 3 am. She was throwing out when woke up.

My grand-dad was sitting alone at the living room. I can understand his worry, pain and sense of helplessness. He was relating they were up till 2 am talking. Age has robbed not just their health, but their sleep too. They would just wake up in the middle of the night. For my grand-dad, age has robbed his pride, strength and aim. I wonder if the aim for old age is to die peacfully and painlessly so that it is easier for them and for the family. Is there a way out? No wonder Prince Guthema was so disturbed by what he saw. But I suppos Mother Theresa has a more straight forward solution. Smile and love people who are dying so that they can die with dignity. She did what Christ would want her to do.

When you are old, you become more nostalgic. He told me how at the age of 24, he became my mother's father, without any help since both his parents passed away. He had only $6 then. Then he spoke of easier death for my grandma. Grandma has been in and out of hospital for many time this year due to kidney failure and weak heart. She is afterall, 83.

Rushed down to SGH to see her, with the package of vegeterian bee hoon and gravy. She likes them.

When I had reached there, I almost missed her. She has lost so much weight. She is now merely 40 kg. Age has also robbed her mass! She is so small.

She was lying there listening to MP3 player of my 3rd aunt, listening to YES 933. The good thing was vomitting has stopped and she was keen to eat the bee hoon. 3rd aunt stopped her to eat too much of the gluten as the phosphate will tax her kidneys too much. Still, I am happy to see her better and eating the bee hoon. I am gald to do something for her.

Karis the young artist.


She is 2 years, 8 mths old. And she is an artist, specialising in protrait. Her masterpiece.

As she draws, she will recite - hair, eyes, mouth, nose, nipples, pi chai (belly button)...

Recent Happening

It has been a while I have not update. Sorry.
Was busy carrying Karis whenever she cough in her sleep. Checking her temperature when she was having fever. Bringing them to see doc, twice. And myself to see doc too.
They are better. Thank God. But cough is still there.
I have completed my articles for Church's mag - Consecrating my Cash. I started with complete idea-less. But His Holy Spirit led me with Bible passages and books I had read. I even submitted a book review too.

I am thankful that inspite of many things, I can serve Him in manner He is leading.

Eliora is 1 month old



Yesterday was Eliora's one month old day. We had a simple photo-taking. Her granny and grand-dad came. Took family foto and a small little cakes - for her kor kor and zei zei to eat actually.

Today, she went to her Hep B second jab. She is not 4.6 kg! Good that she is gaining weight. Pray she will continue to gain wt at good rate.

I am thankful to God for seeing us through the first month. The first few days were stressful when she had slight jaundice. Unable to tell the degree, I was pretty worried.

Thank God all is well. :-)

Pufffy Eyes

Went to see the doc yesterday for my blocked nose and bad cough. He gave me some new medicine to reduce the inflammation. After 1 hour, I begin to have tightness. Later, my eyes were so swelled up that my already small eyes became almost invisible.

Went back to see him and he gave me an injection. Oh man... now then I discover I am allergic to certain drugs.

Thank God that it wasn't a fatal reaction.

Here I am waiting
Abide in me I pray
Here I am longing
For You
Hide me in Your love
Bring me to my knees
May I know Jesus
More and more

Come live in me
All my life
Take over
Come breathe in me
And I will rise
On eagle's wings
Eagle's Wings
