I'm happy to share with you this year's first stor I'm happy to share with you this year's first story of "a heart that is good"- A HEART THAT PERSEVERES. 🥰👍❤️💪↗️

As followers of Christ, it is our ultimate calling to make disciples. But the truth is, it isn't easy to take God's call and make Jesus known. Along the way, we may face a lot of obstacles that can cause our faith to waver. 

God’s story in Rose’ life teaches and inspires us to persevere even how things may frustrate us. People and situations can disappoint us but we must never give up, and continue the race God has set before us.

If you are a small group leader and currently experiencing challenges in discipling men or women, may this story encourage you to keep persevering, for in due time, you will reap a harvest if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9).

I love baking and I consider it one of my "Me Time I love baking and I consider it one of my "Me Time". Though it is a bit tiring at times, I still enjoy doing it specially if the outcome of a recipe is a success. 😁

I have 2 girls and a 3-year old son, and guess who is much interested in joining me during bake time? 😆 It's my son, when he see's me in the kitchen prepping my bake tools or doing some whisking he would ask, " Mommy cookies?" Then he would say: "Mommy I'll help you" not asking but rather saying that i cannot stop him from doing so. 

Having him help me would be extra messy but it fascinates me seeing his interest because he also does cooking and baking during his play time using my baking tools and his lego blocks. I wonder, would he be a baker or a chef someday? 😃😍 

Yes it's important to have Me Time at the same time it is important to let these magic moments happen when our kids will come to us and would like to help us in anything that we are doing at the moment because it is actually spending time with them and somehow training or influencing them for their future.

May we all have more magic moments with our kids, because that is when we can influence them more. Every kids has their own interests, be more observant to find ways to connect to them. 🙂

Hello Ladies, specially the wives out there; it's Hello Ladies, specially the wives out there; it's 2 days to go before Valentine's Day. And admit it or not, I know a lot of us are expecting some thing special on that special day.😃

Like the old school way of receiving chocolates and flowers why not try to be different this time. Needless to say why not try to be "practical" this time. If given the chance to be asked by our husband, what we would want for Valentines Day why not ask for something that we really need: a boquet of panties, a box of toilettries or maybe a sack of rice for the whole family 😂 and we can do the same for them: a set of new boxer shorts and briefs or maybe a new styling gel to make them look more handsome and yummy 😁😅 anything that we think that they need.

I know we would want something that is memorable but why not have that experience itself to be the one to be remembered like receiving a boquet of panty for Valentines Day. 

Be funny, be creative and be thoughtful this Valentines Day. 😍🙂

PS. I know expecting is in our nature and it can either make you smile or make you sad. Why not be the first to act, it is always a great thing to be the one to give.

When answering what love is, we also answers who G When answering what love is, we also answers who God is, simply because God is LOVE.

As what is said on these verse's:
1John 4:8-10
8 Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love. 9 And God showed his love for us by sending his only Son into the world, so that we might have life through him. 10 This is what love is: it is not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the means by which our sins are forgiven.

God loved us first. An unconditional commitment to love us. He made a choice, He made a decision. With complete knowledge of who we are, of our sinful nature, of our weaknesses, God chose to love us. Because that is who He is because - He is Love. 

And because that is what God did to us and is continuously doing we too are to love others unconditionally and committedly. We are His distributor of True Love. Yes it is hard specially towards difficult people but it is made possible because of Gods love, all we need to do is to overflow with that love. 

Overflow with God's Love.

Do you agree that love is not a NOUN but a VERB? Do you agree that love is not a NOUN but a VERB? 

Yes, LOVE is more than just a feeling, it is an action. It must be said, must be shown and must be felt with. 

It is what Jesus have shown us too, He demonstrated His love for us by his sacrifice on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins.

True love often requires sacrifice. It may not be easy to love but it is always rewarding to do so. For this love month, what is your Act of Love? 😊😍

Would you make baked goodies with love, cook a special dinner for your loved ones or maybe you will send out love cards and love letters? Or perhaps you will do it in a much deeper way like - on this day I will forgive someone who have hurt me, or I will let someone know that I appreciate him/her, no matter how you do it, what is important is that you do it out of love. 

We would love to hear your wonderful and creative Acts of Love, we hope you can share it to us. 😊
Happy Love Month!😍

Hello there! Thank you Lord for another week to st Hello there! Thank you Lord for another week to start. As we go through our day may we all be reminded again to worship and praise our Lord for his faithfulness and his love for us. 

I know we all have our share of heart aches, pains of losing loved ones or even just having the feeling of being alone and out of love. But no matter how painful it is, One Thing Remains - His Love for Us All 🙂🥰

Let me share to you our #MondayWorship Song

One Thing Remains by Jesus Culture

Your love never fails
It never gives up
It never runs out on me

Because on and on, and on, and on it goes
For it overwhelms and satisfies my soul
And I never, ever, have to be afraid
One thing remains, yes, one thing remains

Truly His love for us will never fail, will never give up and never runs out. His love goes on and on and it will satisfy our soul. Hold on to this truth. His love is our greatest need and our greatest gift.

We have our own fair share of troubles and we have We have our own fair share of troubles and we have to admit that we are weak. True strength comes only in the Lord. If we are spiritually nourished with the things of God, we can have the supernatural strength alongside peace, love, joy, and hope, and wisdom that He generously gives to those who ask of Him.

It is the 1st day of the Love Month, an event in a It is the 1st day of the Love Month, an event in a year where we give extra special care or attention to our hearts and our love one's heart. 😍

Have you already known the greatest love of all?  I pray so, and if you haven't known it yet let me share it to you: it is the Love of the one Above and the love of the one who died on the Cross for us.

Thank you Jesus, thank you God for giving us the Greatest Love of All and with this truth, just like what the lyrics in this song says may this be our greatest goal in life.

I think a lot can relate to this, my husband is te I think a lot can relate to this, my husband is teasing me..."Hmm you're extra sweet today, coz it's what? It's Pay Day!" Hahaha I said "What? I've always been sweet to you, Pay Day or not!"😄 😅

For a wife, money is really important but not on top, it will always be God, our spouse then our kids. But money does play an important role. Yes, it does affect our mood specially if it's giving us a hard time. 😅

I believe it is one of the major goals of a wife to be a good steward of one of God's blessings: Money. We thrive on improving our budgeting skills, saving skills and even in our giving skills, because it is not only us who will benefit from it, our number one benefactor is them: our FAMILY. 

"So honey, what do you want for lunch today?!" 🥰 Use money as one of the way to appreciate your spouse for their hard work. Use money and be a blessing to others.

#gobackthursday In line with the listing of our F #gobackthursday 
In line with the listing of our Faith Goals this 2021, I hope this blog post will remind you of making your goals/dreams/aspirations more of those with Lasting Reward.
Before I became a Christian, I have lots of big dreams and goals. Dream to travel to different countries, to work abroad and earn a lot of money, to have a big house, a car, and the list goes on. I know most people have the same list as mine and it isn’t bad to dream big anyway right?
But when I came to know the Lord, all of my dreams changed. As a wife of 3 years and a first-time mom, I started to make goals that are align with God’s will for me and my family. Goals that have a lasting reward.

Life in God's Service We often wonder what is God Life in God's Service

We often wonder what is God's purpose for us, we often ask "What is His will for me?, What does He want me to do?" Is this also the biggest question you have in your life right now? Or maybe you were able to find the answer to this question or so you thought but as you move forward you get stumble and then you ask yourself is this really what God wants me to do? 

I feel you, I also usually get trap on this question, i think maybe it is because we don't really know the Lord by heart that is why we can't find ourselves to truly believe in His words that this is really what He wants us to be, or what He wants us to do.

Just like this verse: Romans 12:1
12 So then, my friends, because of God's great mercy to us I appeal to you: Offer yourselves as a living sacrifice to God, dedicated to his service and pleasing to him. This is the true worship that you should offer. 

He wants us to be of service to him in full dedication and He wants us to live our lives in a way that is pleasing to Him. Sounds easy right?! So how can we do it? 
Then comes verse 2 Do not conform yourselves to the standards of this world, but let God transform you inwardly by a complete change of your mind. Then you will be able to know the will of God—what is good and is pleasing to him and is perfect.

God wants us to be different, He doesn't want us to copy the ways of this world, He wants us to have a COMPLETE change of mind, not just a little portion of our mind but all of it. Can we do this? Are we willing to do these things? Well that is the key for us to know the will of God.

Yes it is fearful to know the heaviness of the things that we should do, but it is helpful to know that God will never call on us to do something for which He has not already equipped us. Let's trust in Him. He created us and is helping us to make this effort in Him.

God bless everyone.

Beginnings are always a start of something GREAT. Beginnings are always a start of something GREAT. Do you agree? Well, I do!  I believe that beginnings are opportunities of making things better, it's a path of discovering new things about God, about yourself and about life. 

I know that all of us have made our list of our Faith Goals for 2021, I am curious to know how everyone is doing towards their faith goals. As for me, two of my faith goals are to be determined in being healthy and organized. Me and my son started our morning walk to get sunlight and walking as an exercise. And as for being organized I bought notebooks/record books to keep track of my finances and a journal for my daily devotions. I pray to do these things more often and consistently because I have a goal to reach and I want a better version of me. 

Yes there are and there would be struggle, challenges even lazy days that will hinder us in reaching our goals, but don't be too hard on yourself, thanks to my sister-in-law for sharing this quote to me, "Believe you can and you're half way there". I am encouraged, I hope you are too. 🙂

I hope we will all have a wonderful journey towards our goals, and to make it more fulfilling lets walk with God all through out that journey. 🥰☝️

Since most of us will be staying and celebrating t Since most of us will be staying and celebrating this holiday season at home, we have a lot of time to reflect on everything God has done for us this 2020 and to set goals for the coming year. 

Believe it or not, God has been busy doing transformative work in each and every one of us this year. We are all forced to get out of our comfort zone. And that is not a bad thing! We learned to take risks, to try new activities or hobbies we haven’t done before, to open up a new business and to be creative. We learned to persevere and endure hardship. We learned to wait and be hopeful. We learned to value the things we usually take advantage of. We learned to love and serve selflessly to our family. We learned to FORGIVE. ❤

In a nutshell, we are all LEARNING and GROWING! ☺️💪👍👊

Check out my new post on how you can start writing your 2020 gratitude list and 2021 faith goals. Link in Bio.
My son loves it when we affirm him everytime he do My son loves it when we affirm him everytime he does a good thing, builds something new with his toys and Lego blocks, or helps us with household chores. 😊

Everybody wants to be appreciated, who doesn't?

We learned from the #MOTIVATE series that the principle of affirmation encourages positive change. 

The Bible says that there is power in our words. We can choose to speak life or death to our spouse, our children, family, and friends. Our words to them can have a lasting impact so we should always be careful with how and what wr speak to them.

Pastor Peter said that we should increase positive words of affirmation and reduce negative words of correction. It isn't easy but God will surely help us as we call on Him and asked to be filled with the Holy Spirit. 

Lord help us to have a teachable heart - a heart that is good. ❤️🙏
For our activity this week, I printed pictures of For our activity this week, I printed pictures of different jobs and activities to teach my son about vision. I know at his age he still couldn't understand the full meaning of it but I want him to learn a simple and very important thing. 

I spread out all the pictures before him and I asked him to choose what he likes. First he picked the policeman. I asked him why and he said because it is blue. 😂 (But he actually knows what the policeman do: he catches the bad guy.)Then I picked up Jesus' picture and hold it together with the policeman.

 I told Josh that whatever he chooses, Jesus is always with him. If he chooses the policeman, Jesus can help him catch the bad guy. If he chooses the fireman, Jesus can help him to put out the fire. If he chooses to do karate, Jesus can help him too. 

I want him to have the vision that he can do a lot of things with Jesus. He can always ask help from him.

The fifth principle #vision from the #motivateseries talks the importance of teaching and helping our children to know God's personal purpose and plan for their lives. 

Casting a godly vision gives direction in making decisions and in prioritizing our activities to achieve God's will for us. 

Lord help us to help our children and family cast a godly vision for their lives. Help us to have a teachable heart. ❤️
