bound by Love.

Last last Sunday my daughters, namely meiqi, selynn, amanda, simin and belinda (poor lizann was sick!), 'sons' cerwin and weiliang, and i had a beautiful time at the movies, singing and swaying to the tunes of willy wonka, willy wonka...., eating willy wonka chocolates (!) and curly fries dipped in icecream. Ha. What extravagance. :P

But the most beautiful part of the day which will never fail to soak my heart in warm joy, is the scene when i was trying out an elegant shawl, and all my daughters would be standing by me, 'serving' me by helping to take my bags voluntarily, twirl the shawl properly around my shoulders, watch me while giving opinions on how it looked on me, putting the ones i tried back on the racks, etc etc. For a second, i was a little embarrassed at having a crowd around me in a small boutique. But gosh, i really felt like a 'mother' at those moments!!

love ya all! :> Thanks for loving me...

Three years ago a close friend of mine told me Bubbles reminded him of me. Cute innocence were his eyes on me.

One year ago another friend said i was like Blossom with my slightly-blonded tresses. i hoped he was referring more to the sweet quiet confidence Blossom has.

Today as these interestingly dawned upon my mind suddenly, i felt more like Buttercup than ever. Tough spice as she is, i'm gonna be a strong lady in the Lord always! :>

cluck.

i never knew i could crave for chicken pies and kfc chicken.
40 days of daniel fast have made my taste buds tempt-able by something that used to be mere-food-that-fills-my-stomach. *cluckadoooooo!*

me.

Tonight i was inspired to look at......my life.

emptyhanded.

Majesty majesty

Your grace has found me just as i am

emptyhanded but alive in Your hands...

i saw myself, standing before the Presence of the Lord....emptyhanded.
Yet He continued to call upon my name, and draw my heart towards His.

i could do nothing
but respond in heartfelt gratitude, love and tears...
(yesh for the first time after so long, i cried my heart out during service's worship - 30 jul 05)

God healed my soul - a wearied one.


i always felt my parents expected a lot from me.
i felt like i have to stand before them, with sparkling achievements in my hands, in order to please them.

What an excruciating contrast, when it first hit me!

O Lord O Lord....
Your grace has indeed found me just as i am...

emptyhanded

but alive in Your hands. :)



*Love and hugs*
