Touch by HIS words...again...Refuge within


My sunday prayer..


...I wake up this morning in a kind of a discouraged mood...after sending a text message to a friend regarding an important phase on our career as a dentist ( a do or die situation ).... i sat in my bed and i pause for a while and started to open my daily prayer book....there....again...God has sent me another message through his word... ( teary eyed...)... I allow the meaning of the words to open my heart....to continue my one and only "refuge"....

...I just want to share this thoughts that i found in goodlife zen blog...the question on your refuge.


...Yes!everyone needs a refuge. A safe space. Where we feel welcome. Where we find shelter. Where we are deeply refreshed.

It may not be a place, it could be an activity, or a person, or an idea that gives us a sense of refuge.

What is your refuge?

The following questions will help you clarify that question.

  1. What gives you the most joy?
  2. Where do you feel most at ease?
  3. Who is the person you feel most comfortable with?
  4. What makes you feel most peaceful?
  5. What makes you feel most connected?
  6. What makes you feel most creative?
  7. What gives you the most courage?
FOR ME....My Dream is my refuge....My two kids are my refuge....My life as the child of God is my only refuge...How about You? :)

Single Mom Prayer

...i was almost moved to tears

.....thanks Jocelyn for this prayer


My God, I have such a wonderful child, a most precious gift I do not deserve. My heart melts into joy each time he looks at me, each time he calls me “Mommy“. He would embrace me and kiss me and all my troubles will disappear in a moment. Nothing else matters except his laughter and the brightness of his eyes. You know I would give him everything. I would give him the world if I can only do it. Gladly would I sacrifice everything for him, even my own life if need be so.

He brought me hope, he gave my life direction and a meaning I’ve never known before. Surely Lord, you have saved me through this child. Through him you have made known to me how much you love me.

But I am not worthy O God. I feel so incapable of taking care of your most beautiful gift to me. For what can I possibly give this child? My failures? My brokenness? My shameful past? What can I teach this child? How can I mould him into the person he was meant to be? What shall a single mom like me pray?

Yet you gave him to me, you’ve brought him unto my cold and shaking hands. Surely you must know my weaknesses, yet you must have also known I would call upon you to help me and to provide for the things I cannot do.

Help me O God. Heal me of my wounds so I may not pass on to him my bitterness. Heal me of my insecurities that I may teach him how to have confidence on himself. Blot out my sins that he may not be cursed for mistakes he wasn’t even aware of, and so that he can have a wonderful future ahead of him. Fill my heart with love even if I’m all alone. For how can I possibly give away that which I do not have? It is not easy indeed to be a single mom. Grant me wisdom. Grant me strength to face a harsh world so I can provide for him and give him everything he needs. Say unto me Lord that I am not alone for you will be my Husband, and you yourself will be his Father. This child is blessed, this I know, and I thank you for all that you have ever done and all that you have in store for us from your boundless mercy and unceasing love.

To all the single moms out there, I salute you. I hope that this prayer of a single mom somehow resonates the true prayers of your heart and inspires you in believing that the answer is sure to come, and is certainly on the way!

We continued to monitor his temp,and gave him tempra forte.That night his temperature began to rise again and he vomitted while drinking his milk,( panic mode again!) early morning sunday (his grandpa's birthday) we went to see his doctor again. while waiting for our turn at the clinic,we were walking around,he asked as to stop at the hospital canteen to buy a popsicle..oh yes a popsicle..there... he ate and finished everything..surprisingly my son started to feel better...i'm so happy! i guess Popsicles are a good alternatives...:) <--- (search this site)
