March (much) happenings

 The last few weeks have not been great but it's really teaching me to reflect on where true joy and satisfaction can be found. Was listening to the UCB (Geneva) radio today and a speaker said that trials and tribulations turn us from the temporal satisfaction of earthly joys, and leads us to find eternal satisfaction and joy that Jesus gives. It's hard truth and i am still trying to grasp it.

Our neighbors are returning to SG end of this month too. 😕 I'm sad to say goodbye but yet aware that we will be returning ourselves soon. I'm looking forward, yet so afraid all at the same time. Perhaps, that contributes to all the confusion and anxiety i have been struggling with. 

I've been very much into embroidery recently. It's been enjoyable making small projects. E even requested for a pattern for his favourite blankie!



Of course, the baking continues. I have to start clearing out things i bought and cannot finish using! Made PB rice krispies bars, brownies and orange chiffon cake. Clearly my stress levels have been high!! I've been going mad on the sweets.




The next few weeks will be bleak because we have to bid our friends goodbye. Then, we shall slowly start planning our own relocation. We found a school for E and he will start in September! I have to remind myself, step by step... and trust that just as the Lord led Israel as a pillar of cloud by day and fire by night, He leadeth me...
