God can turn every roadblock into an opening to His floodgates of blessings!
Warrior Princess was sharing me about something, and it triggered my memory. A few days ago, I was going through something and was really upset. I emailed a number of people and none of them got back to me. I was really disappointed and let myself feel like I was unloved.
Looking back, I realised that if any of them had replied to me. I would have never sought God. I would have never had His...
Isaiah 54:2, NIV “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.
I was reminded of this just now. This was one of my faith verses when I began my journey pursuing an education overseas. At first, it was about finances. Now I realise that it is so much more than that.
To enlarge the place of our tents, we...
Walking by Faith and not by sight

I want to be place in a position where I have no choice but to trust you, because I cannot. Just like Joseph, who had nothing in his favour, but trusted in the God of Israel. Cause life is not life without You. And it is exciting when I see you working and coming through for me in the different areas of my life. I will look up, for your blessings and favour to rain upon me..and I...
I am hungry. I know Ms Polar Bear says I’m a bottomless pit, but really these few days I have been feeling very hungry. I would eat until I’m full and then five minutes later, it’s like I’d been starving for days. And I was just wondering why. I know I get extra hungry when it’s that “time of the month”, but this time it’s also a feeling of...
I haven’t said this to many people. When people ask me how I am, I say that I’m good. Because, well, I am good, that is the truth. But the whole truth is that while I am good, I’m not coping very well. It is like I’m skating on thin ice, trying my best to pirouette.
I was talking to my neighbour and like me, we both got advanced standing since we came from a polytechnic....
“… you will meet a widower with two boys.”
My jaw dropped, muesli slipping out at the shock of the “detailed” psychic reading in the papers. How could she! and other thoughts ran through my mind. I was appalled. That poor lady is going to read that and miss out on so many things just looking for that one widower with two boys. She will never be friends with the...
I was reading this post about my recurring cough which came back during camp and Coach Lionel declaring healing over me. And I realised that, I’ve been healed.
This was a worry of mine, that in dry countries, my cough would come back and I would have difficulty breathing and sleeping as a result. I was worried that I would be really sick in Sydney and Brisbane.
In Sydney, I bought...
Have you ever wondered how God ministers to you?
This morning, I was really tired, stressed… in a mess, to sum it up. I decided to pray in tongues, since we were taught about that in camp. And suddenly I was prompted to listen to some worship music. I used to listen to a dose of Planetshakers and Hillsong United on the way to work. But since I’ve upped and left for a new country, I...

Marry a man who loves you more than you love him
My mother once told me:
When you hold a man’s hand and he makes your heart beat faster and he makes you feel giddy and excited, walk away from this man. He is not the man for you. If you hold a man’s hand and he makes you feel warm, safe and secure, hold onto him. This is the man you are going to marry.
I was 16 when my mother told...
Each season I would identify myself with a Bible character, a thing I’d picked up after hearing how impacted Ps Judah Smith was when he identified with Timothy. I identified Abraham when I was praying for a place in uni, Lot’s wife when I had to move to a new country and now I felt that God was pointing me to Ruth in my new season of learning to submit to and honour my parents (mum, in...
