In my previous church, the Pastor stressed about having financial freedom. Meaning not owning anyone a single cent. Buy everything in cash. It is really a bondage if you owe someone money. You are not free to do as you like, like resigning from work. I’ll blog about this later.
However due to lifestyle demand many are in bad credit now, meaning not able to pay on time or missing some payment. This hinders you from borrowing money from some financial institution. Fortunately, there are still company that offers bad credit loans to help you repair your credit status. Check out BadCreditOffers.com.

I was telling hubby that I am reading the book of Numbers, the toughest book in the Old Testament for me to complete. Many times when I said I wanted to finish reading the whole bible, I will get stuck at Numbers. Then he remembered Pastor was saying that we need to be faithful in reading the Word too. No matter how hard and difficult it is, we need to persevere.
In relationship with man, faithfulness is more prevalent in times of hardship. We always hear couples saying that they are very faithful to their spouse but that is said during good times. What about when there is hardship in the marriage like sickness or financial difficulties? Would you stay put as what you have vowed on your wedding day? In sickness and in health, for richer, for poorer, for better, for worse, in sadness and in joy.

As a Christian, finding a life partner of the same faith is very important. Not only same faith but must also be of the same level of maturity. God clearly mentioned in His Word that Christian should not be unequally yoke.
“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness?” 2 Corinthians 6:14
I myself experienced being unequally yoke with unbeliever. I did not marry him but I dated him for almost 4 years and boy! how I suffered in that relationship. But then living in countries where Christian is the minority, it is not easy to find mature Christian as life partner.
Thank God that is not much of a problem anymore because there are Christian dating website where we can meet lots of Christian from around the world. Just take a look at this Free Dating Site for Christian. So many to choose from and don’t worry about long distance relationship, there is tips for long distance relationship too.
This free dating site not only for those looking for love but also for making new friends, an activity partner, a travel partner, casual acquaintances, or a pen pal. I am going to sign up and see whether I can meet nice Christian from Europe. Maybe I can get free accommodation when I travel to Europe.

Saturday is going to be an ironing day again for me because the pastor of the church that we are attending is making it compulsory for the church leaders to wear formal shirts and ties during Sunday service. I don’t mind ironing but it means that I have less time to blog and I don’t really like that idea.

If I live in UK, I will sure get the above shirt for hubby. A classic herringbone shirt Non-Iron shirt from Van Heusen. The Van Heusen brand has been around since 1919. Through many years of experience and “evolution” I am sure their shirts comes with comfort and quality. It comes with very attractive price too. If you buy more than 3 pieces, it will only be £25 Each. If you check out their Clearance sale, you can even get a shirt from just £15.

I asked my colleague to share his First Love experience…
When they were dating, he sponsored her to become Amway member and later she became one of the Diamond members. She must be very hardworking recruiting people to join under her and buying too. Due to it, she has less time for the relationship. He wanted her to resign but she wants to pursue her career.
One fine day she asked to end the relationship with the reason that she does not have much time for him anymore. He was heartbroken but he felt more hurt when he discovered that she is going out with someone else just weeks after they broke off.
He saw her hugging a man while riding on a motorbike. The next day, he waited nearby her house to confirm what his eyes have seen. Yup! She is with someone else. The guy came to pick her up and she was hugging him tight, not because she is scared but they are a couple now.
My colleague block them with his car when they were about to leave the house. Confronted her about her lies. She gave so many excuses. In his anger, he slept slap her. She bled. Then life goes on. My colleague married another girl and his ex-girlfriend has been married twice since then.
Not all First Love has a happy ending.

Do you want to know why I love Smorty? It gives me the opportunity to get paid for blogging so that I can stop complaining to God why He did not bless me with extra income. Remember I was talking about opportunity that God gave when we pray for something. I believe Smorty is one of answered prayers.
Many advertisers love to advertise on blogs these days because blogs are more read than magazines and newspapers. I can’t remember when is the last time I read a newspaper!
With Smorty, advertisers will pay bloggers to write opinion posts with links back to the advertiser’s site. Bloggers will be paid weekly through Paypal once the post is approved and bloggers is given ample time, 3 days, to write a minimum of 150 words only. Oh! Please don’t stop at 150 words if you have more to write.
If you have not sign up. What are you waiting for?

My patience is really tested this few days by my children. All of them are sick. Vomiting one after another. Purging one after another. They are whinny, cranky, demanding and stubborn. I know I will be the same if I am in their shoe. I wonder how my mom handles me.
Many times I told them that I wanted to send them to the hospital. Let the nurses and doctors treat them until they are well. Seeing them like this, I really respect the nurses. If they lost their tempers at time, we should not blame them. It is not an easy task taking care of the sick. Btw, did anyone ever say that it is easy?

Our pastor always encourages us to have financial freedom; meaning no owing anyone. But sometimes circumstances makes us loose judgement and get into debt and sometimes to the extend borrowing more than we can afford to pay. Due to this, many will be labeled as having bad credit and some finance institution won’t allow them to borrow anymore. However there are still a few finance companies that offers loan to those who have bad credit to help them get rid of the bad credit label. BadCreditOffers.com has a list of the companies that do so.

Have you watch the movie Evan Almighty? I would recommend you watch it. It is not only funny but makes me ponder on the things that I prayed for everyday.
God creates opportunity for every prayer that we make. Let’s say, you pray more extra income. God don’t drop money down from heaven. He creates opportunity for us to get extra income. As for me, the bayar post thingy.
One prayer that I am not so sure I want to pray for unless I am really serious about it; the prayer for patience. You pray for Patience, God will send situation and people to test our patience and creates the opportunity for us to learn to be more patience. I would prefer if God has some “magic patience dust” and sprinkle it down on me from heaven and wahlah! I became the most patience person on earth. However, that’s not the way God works.
Hmm…what if I pray for faithfulness, I wonder whether God will send handsome man to test me!

To those who have exes, will you or do you invite him/her/them to your wedding? If you were to receive wedding invitation from him/her/them, will you go?
To me, it depends on how the relationship ended. If it is based on mutual agreement. You agree and I agree that we are not made for each other for life. I would be happy to attend his wedding to know that he finally found the true love of his life.
I broke off with my first love based on mutual agreement too. He was unable give me the quality time that I want in a relationship due to his studies. So we agreed to take a break and go our own way even though we still love each other. In order not to be selfish, we agreed but reluctantly.
I did attend my ex-boyfriend wedding. Not as a quest or his ex but I went there to be his bride.

In the office I was not able to connect on MSN because the Streamyx line was extremely slow today. Furthermore, big boss is around. So I was unable to chat with the ladies. I was so desperate to chat with this lady especially. So what I did was, call her cell phone and chat with her for 5 minutes. I felt so happy after being able to have a conversation with. This is what you call LOVE? But I am straight, ok!
For months we have been chatting on MSN almost everyday except Sunday and it has become part of my routine. One day cannot chat, miss it (the conversation) so much. I think I am addicted to chatting with the siao lady. Hehe.

I always experienced nose block and my nose is very sensitive to just a light hit. Like when my children accidentally hit my nose with their forehead. This will cost me to sneeze non stop for a few minutes. I wonder whether Chicago rhinoplasty could do something about it.
I know Rhinoplasty is usually done to reshape the nose in order to improve its appearance, like making the bridge higher. Many Asian really needs this.
As for me, I am thankful with what God has blessed me with. You know, we are fearfully and wonderfully made.
It seems that besides for the purpose of beauty, Rhinoplasty may also help to alleviate some breathing problems. But this cost a lot of money too. Since I don’t have much to spare, I will just trust God for His healing touch. That’s the best Rhinoplasty in the world!

I was in the office this morning about to fax the Purchase Order to supplier when I heard the above through the radio. The first thing that comes to my mind was, “Boy! The old lady must be filthy rich or maybe San Jose plastic surgeons did their wonders and transformed her look and body to a 24 years old lady.”

But I was wrong. Just look at the picture. She really looks her age and she does look rich.
My question, if she is not rich, does this proves that love is really blind?
The groom, Reinaldo Waveqche, told reporters after the ceremony in Santa Fe, northern Argentina: “I’ve always liked mature ladies.”
Mr Waveqche added: “I don’t care what other people say.” He and bride Adelfa Volpes, 82, are planning to travel to Rio de Janeiro for their honeymoon.
Asked if the marriage was purely spiritual, Ms Volpes laughed and replied: “There is going to be more.”
The couple were married in a civil service after several years of engagement, and later walked through a local church surrounded by reporters.
Their love blossomed when Mr Waveqche went to live with her after his mother’s death when he was 15.
He said he admired his new wife’s zest for life, and emphasised how special she was to him.

I wanted to sign up for yoga class a few years back but my husband did not allow me. He told me that it has something to do with chanting, meditation and mantras that are not for the believer of Christ. I just obeyed without finding out more about it. Ya, I am a good wife.
Today I found a website that talk about Kundalini yoga exercises.
In Kundalini Yoga, great emphasis is placed on chanting and meditation. The Kundalini means coilded snake in the body can be awakened by practicing Asanas, Pranayama and Mantras. Once the Kundalini has been awakened, individuals may feel a variety of experiences including sensations along the spinal cord, trembling, tingling sensations, waves of heat, bursts of joy and even transcendental visions. Some believe that activating the Kundalini energy begins the path leading to Enlightenment.
By practicing yoga, indirectly we are practicing their beliefs and their ritual too.
