Sometimes, I can’t help but feel that is tough being a woman in the today’s times – having to face many challenges and pressure like work, family, finances, children, etc, etc, etc…
It’s even tougher sometimes when you feel that you are going thru it alone with no one you can turn to & you don’t want to share with your parents cos you do not want them to worry.
I feel that I’m working so hard everyday at work, working till the late hours, staying back for OT yet the money is not enough to pay the bills, the loans instalment, the daily necessities. Many things that I wished I can buy for myself, they all have to be put aside to be sacrificed. Indeed, SG is pretty hard to survive with just a single income. What’s more I don’t really feel the support (whether in action or in the emotions) that I needed the most from the one that I hope to see. Does he really feel and know my heart?
As much as I know that He is the source and the provider, I’m also a normal human being who needs to see the hands of God moving though I trust His heart.
With so much challenges in this season of my life – wanting to grow the cg, having to think and provide solutions for the problems that mbrs face (have to help them find job, counsel them, encourage them), worrying everyday where and when the finance is going to come in to pass to Ric…,when is dual income coming in, stress and pressure at work, the baby that is coming…Yet despite all these challenges, I’m still expected to encourage, inspire and impart faith every week to the sheeps under my care.
That’s only that much that I can take…

Hey Rach, though u may be expected to encourage, inspire and impart faith to the sheep. Remember you need to be filled with encouragement and faith before you can give. *Pat Pat* Talk to someone who can help you… I believe you can do it. Well, I will pray for you today since I will be @ Powerhouse.
Jia you!!
