Isn't she lovely? isn't she wonderful? This is my god daughter Alessia, looking oooh so pretty. She was born in Philadelphia but is living in Singapore at the moment. Christmas cantata - The Journey, at Watoto church - lovely!! We were taken on the journey of God's salvation plan, from creation, to the birth of Jesus and His meaning in our lives today. Pastor Gary shared the famous speech by Dr.S.M.Lockridge. Here is a small excerpt. I wish I could describe Him to you. But He's indes... Wooah, yeaaah! yeaahh, He's indescribable - yes He is ! He's God. He's, He's indescribable, yes, He's indescribable. He's incomprehensible. He's invincible. He's irresistible. Well, you can't get Him out of your mind, You get Him off of your hand, You can't outlive Him, and you can't live without Him. Well, the Pharisees couldn't stand Him, but they found out they couldn't stop Him. Pilate couldn't find any fault in Him. The witness...

We are alive!

It’s a little unsettling when your anesthetist begins to hum “nearer my God to thee” while preparing you for a surgical procedure. William was extremely talkative, he liked singing too, before putting me to sleep he said a prayer and my last words were “Amen” – scary huh?! I went into a deep sleep. 2 or 3 hours later I was woken up by the nurse who said “wake up Mary, Sam sends his regards” – that got me up for sure. The sleep was so “peaceful”; I can’t exactly blame MJ for wanting that drug each night. Only problem is you never know what is happening around. I didn’t see my doctor before or after the procedure so; anyone could have done anything to me. He eventually came round to check on me, said the operation was successful (I know have a cerclage round my cervix), I will see him again in 10 days. I was on bed rest for 2 days after the operation, my doctor I can resume normal activities, nothing strenuous. Thankfully Sam and my sisters were there the entire time - the joys of being...

It's a walk of faith

Going in for the surgical procedure tomorrow. Hold my hand precious Lord.

I'm still here

Surviving. Energy is 30%. Alarm goes off at 5:30am, I struggle out of bed, take a shower by some miracle and drag myself to work. I do my 8 hours in office, manage to put on a smile and get work done – absolute miracle. Can’t wait for the clock to strike 6pm so I can head home, have my dinner and hit the sack.
