my week

i started the week very low on fuel.. carrying forward some thoughts i had from the previous week..

and dragged my feel to work, literally..

a typical week of mine allows me to have some time for myself on mon/thurs/fri evenings, with monday set aside as preparation day.

editing/ vetting progress reports eventually used up monday and thurs but i had to squeeze little time for myself which i'm happy to share with you...

this is the card i made for a special someone.
she's just like my grandma. so doting and thoughtful :)
she's someone who has made work much much much more bearable,
and i don't think i can use words to sufficiently explain this to you,
but i hope you get what i mean...
aunty goh's a really special person to me and i hope you will know her too<3

this little effort made me pretty much a walking zombie for tuesday,
but there was something that made my day much better too!

thank you er yi for your love and noodles :)

tues evening went on with prayer and praise session and lots of sharing with requires heavenly intervention.
heavy hearted evening..
can only continue to commit in prayer.

water play wednesday is one of the most hectic days of the week.
with the ever insufficient staff and/or new helping hand,
water play is always a challenge but the day (literally) ended on a good note and led to evening's CIC! :)

dear reader if you're reading this,
i really like to share the following with you =)

part of the lesson was on spiritual reading and we reviewed Acts 8: 26-40.
my takeaway was fruitful and i'm glad to share it.
v27: when you are called to do something, you need to respond with action!
v28: many people actually have access to the Bible! so how can we tap on this and spread the Word?
v29: responding promptly- you could have missed the chariot!
       are you ever ready to be dispatched? or reluctant due to inadequate equipping?
v30: respond swiftly, acting on it!! No procrastination!
v31: approaching others can start from the simple things (topics). nothing awkward!!
v34: the prompting qns: God-provided opportunities for us to share more!
v35: seize these opportunities!
v36: the initial drive in serving- where is it now?
v39: ever ready for relocation

we had to reflect/ think about why is our takeaway as such too.
i think i know the reason.
thank God for that :)

on thurs and fri, my "supervisory role" colleague was on mc.
being in the knowing of such a situation (of more shorthandedness) is definitely a test of the mind,
but thanks be to the gracious Father for leading us through these 2 days just like always!

today i met a colleague and her hubby to chat a bit more about setting up a business.
she's the same person who tgt with her husband, is so keen to introduce a bf to me!
it's really quite funny.. anw..
the POINT is,
it could have potentially been a really awkward setting for the meet up..
BUT they chose to talk about the topic mentioned above.
AND the conversation moved on to MY FAITH progressing from whether i have to find a Christian bf, etc, etc.

AND then i got to share with them why i go to church every Sunday,
AND CG,
AND Sunday school,
AND Bible study,
AND the different denominations and differences,
AND what helped me to push on at work,
WITH LOTS OF OTHER ELABORATIONS.

They naturally prompted me to talk.
And the opportunity just came like that.
It was just like my experience of Acts 8.
And i am super thankful for the meetup.
That though our intention to meet doesn't seem like it will go to sharing of faith,
It somehow did.

And it feels great to be able to share my God with someone else.

THANK YOU LORD! :D
