Where Is Your Heart?

At a recent conference, I was reminded that we are just prilgrims passing through this world and that we should lay up treasures of eternal values. One of my favourite verses is from Matt 6:19-21. And there's a song written on these verses which I had learnt during my youth days.



"I guess it all comes down to where your heart is.
It's there your thoughts and feelings all begin.
But if you never give your heart to Jesus
You'll never really have a part in Him.

If your treasures are in heaven,
Then your heart will be there too.
And the things you say and do will show Christ's love.
But if your treasure's here on earth
Tell me where your heart will be,
You'll never have a part in things above."

Blessed Birthday to the man of the house!

Blessed 47th Birthday dear Peter!
Hope you like the Chocolate Orange Oreo Cheesecake! :)

Thank God for many well wishes and encouragement from friends.
The below limited edition Omega watch is not only a birthday
gift but also serves as a memento for the 6 years of hard work he
had put in his previous company.

God made you very special and has given you many gifts and talents. Thank you for working hard to provide for the family, for being a responsible father and loving husband.

As you enter into your 47th year of our temporal life on earth, may you experience more of God's joy each day. As you continue to walk in the fear of the Lord, may He give you wisdom from above to obey and do what He wants you to do for Him and for His Kingdom's purpose, impacting lives, investing in eternal values and experiencing God's guidance each step of the way.


I wonder, have I done my best for Jesus
Who died upon the cruel tree
To think of His great sacrifice at Calvary
I know my Lord expects the best from me.

Chorus:
How many are the lost that I have lifted?
How many are the chained I've helped to free?
I wonder, have I done my best for Jesus,
When He has done so much for me.

V2
The hours that I have wasted are so many
The hours I've spent for Christ so few
Because of all my lack of love for Jesus,
I wonder if His heart is breaking too.

V3

I wonder, have I cared enough for others,

Or have I let them die alone?
I might have helped a wanderer to the Saviour
The seed of precious life I might have sown.

V4
No longer will I stay within the valley
I'll climb to mountains heights above,
The world is dying now for want of someone
To tell them of the Saviour's matchless love.

The traditional art of counting stitches

Welcome to my small gallery of Cross stitch :) Besides baking, singing, photography, I also enjoy the traditional art of counting stitches. As and when I feel inspired to, I also make them for friends. Hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I do :)




These three below are probably some of the oldest cross stitches I have done - about 20 years old.

The below fish tank and 3 hedgehogs were completed just recently.

Isn't this cute? It warms my heart just by looking at them :)

Praotes - an inward grace of the soul

Meekness trusts in the Lord, delights in Him.
Meekness commits its ways to the Lord.
Meekness waits patiently for whatever is God's pleasure.
Meekness is humble submission to the will of the Father.
Meekness is walking under the control of the Holy Spirit, always giving thanks.
Meekness is incredible power under control and guidance of God.
Meekness is not weakness but confidence in looking beyond to the sovereignty of God.



Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord.

Our God, You reign forever,
Our Hope, our strong Delieverer
You are the Everlasting God, the Everlasting God
You do not faint, You won't grow weary.

Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord.

Our God, You reign forever,
Our Hope, our strong Deliverer
You are the Everlasting God, the Everlasting God
You do not faint, You won't grow weary.

You're the Defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles.

Happy 44th Birthday Singapore!

These are Double Choco Muffins coated with icing frosting and decorated with colourful, small flowers and a National Flag. I made 30 of them for my husband's Saturday PowerKids' class and the Praiseband on duty that weekend :)


Mini ones

These are very simple to make. I used my Egg Tart crust recipe and baked them blind. Then I cut up some apples, add brown sugar and cinnamon. Let them cool and then fill up the baked cases. You can use different fillings. I tried fresh durians and you should see the faces of those who took the first bite -one commented he was in "durian heaven" :)
