Mom's Empty Chair

A woman's daughter had asked the local ministerto come and pray with her mother. When the minister arrived,he found the woman lying in bed with her head propped up on two pillows. An empty chair sat beside her bed. The minister assumed that the woman had been informed of his visit...'I guess you were expecting me, he said.'No, who are you?' said the mother.

The minister told her his name and then remarked,'I saw the empty chair and I figured you knew I was going to show up..''Oh yeah, the chair,' said the bedridden woman 'Would you mind closing the door?' Puzzled, the minister shut the door. 'I have never told anyone this,not even my daughter,' said the woman.' But all of my life I have never known how to pray. At church I used to hear the pastor talk about prayer,but it went right over my head... 'I abandoned any attempt at prayer,' the old woman continued, 'until one day four years ago, my best friend said to me,' Prayer is just a simple matter of having a conversation with Jesus. Here is what I suggest..'Sit down in a chair; place an empty chair in front of you,and in faith see Jesus on the chair. It's not spooky because he promised,'I will be with you always'.

'Then just speak to him in the same way you're doing with me right now...''So, I tried it and I've liked it so much that I do it a couple of hours every day. I'm careful though. If my daughter saw me talking to an empty chair, she'd either have a nervous breakdown or send me off to the funny farm.'The minister was deeply moved by the story and encouraged the old woman to continue on the journey.Then he prayed with her, anointed her with oil,and returned to the church.

Two nights later the daughter called to tell the minister that her mama had died that afternoon. Did she die in peace?' he asked. Yes, when I left the house about two o'clock,she called me over to her bedside,told me she loved me and kissed me on the cheek.When I got back from the store an hour later,I found her .But there was something strange about her death.Apparently, just before Mom died,she leaned over and rested her head on the chair beside the bed. What do you make of that?'The minister wiped a tear from his eye and said,'I wish we could all go like that.'

Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive.I asked God for water, He gave me an ocean.*I asked God for a flower, He gave me a garden.*I asked God for a friend, He gave me all of YOU...If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

Happy moments, praise God.
Difficult moments, seek God.
Quiet moments, worship God
Painful moments, trust God.
Every moment, thank God.

I was pretty upset over the 'lost of piglet(s)'. Was talking to dear and I actually teared!
It's like a collection that I'm giving away.
But I'll be fine soon. :)

I always do ...

Emtech Morning


Had breakfast with papa because mummy left house at 9ish to go to the shop.
While I was emtech-ing, I decided to blog about it!
But first, my papa is the best la!!!!
Haha, I forgot to bring my coffee out and already, I plunge down to start my emtech session,
so I told him, "I know I'm a bit too much, can you please bring my coffee?"
Haha, and he did!
See, my papa is the best, and he did not scold me :p
Shall surf the net a bit, using a real computer - netbook, and not on my bb for the first 30 minutes of emtech.
Then 2nd 30min, I think i shall start my marking. 
Hahaha.
Anyway, was bbming irene mom and I told her about mummy's emtech.
Decided to google it.


The 4 Methodologies
High Electric Potential
Magnetic Potential
Heat Potential
Infrared Potential



Am loving the emtech more and more.

Anyway, was chatting with papa, and he was telling me about how the guys in our house are simpler while the gals in our house are more adventurous.
And we talked about mummy opening her shop 30 years ago.
Papa is finally seeing why I am doing what I am doing and is agreeing with me!
Woohoo!

I love my family!

Monday No Blues

Thanks to Angela, she gave me a lift to school today for some TLLM workshop. As usual, this is not a choice. It's a "You've to attend this on ... " kind of workshop.



Literally behind bars. I was dead bored and sleepy. Only good thing was the company and the lunch at Newton.

Dear picked me up after that and I fell asleep IMMEDIATELY. Woke up to find myself at the pool. Time for a good swim.



I love the sun!
