Whatever that is pure, true, praiseworthy... think of such things!

Grandma has been coughing for a month already... and Johanna unfortunately caught her cough bug and has been coughing for 2 weeks.

With Grandma, it has gotten so serious that the doctor was concerned it could be more than a normal bug. Wanting to eliminate other possibilities like TB, puemonia or heart problems, I had to bring her to X Ray today.

And at the backdrop of it all, was the threat to Jo and me and my boy boy in my womb. What's the implications should the following be uncovered? Guess there's really alot of threats in that sense..

Today, while standing with Grandma and helper at the Xray area, it suddenly dawned on me I should not even be there as I am pregnant! I quickly excused myself and thank God! Let my helper handle Grandma while I zip off elsewhere to take cover.

Yes, there are threats. But what's the right thing to do? Must take care of Grandma what!

Lord, I do what I need to do, You do what You can do k? You are the only one that heals!

Weekends...

Ever since the flu bug hit my household, I've been having very strenous nights and days for 2 weeks already. I guess it's getting its toil on me.

Emotionally rather frustrated and drained... yet at every junction where you want to "throw in the towel", there's this amazing peace and strength from the Lord to handle things calmly.

But I must admit that today, some of the bottled emotions are stirring in me.. to the extent that I'm getting the gastric reflux again.


Thankful at least, that my husband is with me through this challenging times. Guess I am tempted to be ungrateful and complain and play the blame game.. instead of being at peace that God is in control.

The pursuit of Christian maturity is not as easy as it seem.. but as simple as it is. Just rely on the cross!
