Counting the financial requirements for the coming months, I can not imagine how we can manage with our expenses; debt to pay, tuition fees and school services; food and other necessities, etc. It is tempting to grab the offer of higher wages away from the family, which is a very sad predicament.
Working abroad with triple wage compared to the amount I am receiving now will be a relief to financial burden. It is indeed a difficult thing because the time for the family is curtailed. The idea of raising the kids with them troubles me a lot. There is a price to pay.
I am reminded of Isaiah 31:1, " Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, who rely on horses, who trust in the multitude of their chariots and in the great strength of their horsemen, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel, or seek help from the LORD."
The Lord is My Shepherd, I shall not want.. He made me to lie down in green pasture...

Doing Good Without String Attached!!!
Their unwavering support as they look at me sailing independently as I traveled the life's journey reminds me of the need for other people regardless of their strengths and weaknesses.

Renewed Commitment!!!
It's funny thing how for so many years, I've kept my commitment but drifts through as time passes by. Well, listening to old messages reminds me of the priorities that should be on top, not immersing myself in trivial things that may side track who I really am, my make-up and my personal identity.
Although now, I seldom meet my mentors, the wonder of web enables me to discover the messages heard long time ago, say 25 years ago. The messages remain true even through the ages.

His Promise
Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
