Strength to carry on, Courage to fight on and Faith to share Christ

This week marks a new beginning. We shifted back some stuff to prepare our permanent stay in my own home. And starting tonight, we will make our way back home every night.

Actually this move is quite daunting. Every morning, we have to all wake up very early to send Zest to the nanny's place and Bliss to school. That will be 6 am. I worry about whether my girls can adjust and if we can all make it to work on time. In the evening, we will have to make it back from my inlaws place to home. Then in May, there will be another change of routine as I will put both of them into another brand new school (supposedly nearer to my home now). That means that the kids get to see less of their grandparents and we must get home in time to fetch them every evening. Dinner will be packed from any coffeeshop along the way. Expenses will increase and budget will get tighter. Etc.. I think I can continue typing a very long list.

All these are adding to my anxiety everyday when I think about them. However, today my Lord told me that my bondage will be broken. I will no longer be enslave to all the lies that the evil one has injected in me. My spirit was aroused, and I am awaken. I walked out my tomb and remove the strips of linen that was wrapped around me. The Lord said that I am never never to put it back again.

So the Lord said to give me:

Strength to carry on,

Courage to fight on, and

Faith to share Christ.

Psalms 9: 9-10

The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed,

a stronghold in times of trouble.
Those who know your name will trust in you,

for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you.
