That is what my church's message for this year. And I've been trying to understand and get the message for myself.
A bit of background story here... I don't like my job, I dislike it. I complained almost everyday about it. So when the church said about restoration, well.. I believe God will do something about my job. January.. nothing happened. February ... I took action by giving resignation letter to my manager. There's a discussion and made me feel I have to stay a few more months to see changes in my workplace. March, April and May still nothing happened. And so I quit. June, July passed by. I took my time sorting my mind and decided to go back to find another job. August came with a new environment of job. I thought this is it. It will be my workplace for a few more years before I decided to retire. But turn out I also felt not right. So I quit less than 3 months later. All the above was my way to get what I want. My own effort.
That is when God turn up and show me the way. I dont have to do anything to get an offer, I just have to rest in Him. I got a message from my previous colleague whether I still interested working with her. I was very excited. This company is the one that I always talked about with my husband. Its location is within 10 minutes bus ride, it is a multinational company ( headquarter is in US ) with very good working hour. I always pray to God hoping I can get into the company again.
And now I was halfway there. Interview will be this coming Thursday. God is good. He is really good. He knows what is the best for me. Thank you God.

Contentment
I was reading this post from Emily A. Clark blog and it described what and how I feel exactly with my home. I sometimes feel that this is not my house and too many times I'm feeling like an outsider in my own house. Yet when I go outside, I miss my house dearly.
So now, I want to embrace the feeling of contentment.
My house may not be perfect, but it is mine and it's filled with our hearts. and for so many more years to come.
Have a nice day, everyone! :)

In the midst of my hectic daily life..
I wish I have more time for myself...
to sleep
to cuddle my daughter
to play with her
read with her
sing with her
and by end of the day.. I wish I had more time to be with her.
but this is how it goes in my real life.
7.30am to 7.30pm go to work.
8pm dinner
8.30 - 9.30pm play with my daughter, I take a bath
10pm laundry & cleaning time (my daughter will be on the bed with her ipad)
11.30 pm Chloe sleeps, I am exhausted
12 midnite, we all sleep..
....
3am I wake up, to have a 'me time' which is sewing
5.30am tired but contented. and fall asleep once more..
till morning (7am) comes and I'm ready to start another day.
Yes, it is hectic ..
but I am a working mom. and mothering never ends when my day jobs end.
For a full time mom, I envy you for having so much time for you and your kids.
Yes I know it is tiring but it is understandably worth more than anything in the world.. at least by my opinion.
I hope I can be JUST a full time mother.
But for now... full time working mother is what I do.

Be Grateful today
Today, I am reminded of how great my life is and how I should not take it for granted what I have now. I read this blog - finding joy and her words really moves me and I got teary while I was reading it, because she reminds me of how wonderful life is without sickness, being able to start your day and have a healthy life -the one thing that is most important yet almost always take it for granted...
These are 10 things that I am grateful today.
My family.
Health.
A job.
A place called home.
Another good day spent with my parents.
No arguments with my hubby for these past week.
My coleagues.
Nice friends.
Chloe.
and being able to read blog while at work ( of course after I've done my work)
Have a nice day everyone!
and be grateful
