It's a Rainy Taggy Day!!

It's a rainy day here. I love it when it rains..It's cool..nice to relax, drink a cup of hot coffee, read a book and sleep. But of course, I won't be able to do that when both my kids are fully awake and playing inside the crib. So, I might as well do my tags before it accumulates.

This is a tag from Janet. Thanks for always remembering to tag me Jan even if sometimes I couldn't post them..:)

What does a white rose represent? White is a color symbolic of many positive things, such as marriage, purity, virtue, and innocence. White is linked to emotions of harmony and serenity. The breathtaking purity and simplistic beauty of a white rose can’t be beat. White roses signify deep, clear emotions. They are given without reservation or ambivalence. The red rose signifies lust or passion, but the white rose goes much deeper to suggest an infinite love that goes to the very core of one’s being. It carries an almost spiritual significance. White roses symbolize devotion, kindness, and deep friendship in love.


Now we are passing on this shining, shimmering, splendid white rose to some of our friends and we are tagging them as well…

Who Wants a Car?

I can't blog about our present day to day blessing yet since I haven't posted all our past blessings and miracles. So, for now..most of my posts will all be looking back from the past.
---------------

Has anyone ever told you," Do you want a car, I'll give you mine! " Sounds too good to be true huh? Well, something like that did happen to us. It didn't 'just' happen but it all started with a desire to have one, then a prayer and then FAITH.

My HUbby and I were already contented riding sweetly in our motorbike until, we learned that we're going to have a baby. It's fun to get wet in the rain, when you're just newly weds but it'll be pitiful if you'll have a baby with you getting wet in the rain too.

So, this led my HUbby to desire to have a car. We were just newly weds in a foreign country and we're not 'professionals' with high paying jobs. So maybe if we wanted to save up for a car, our baby will be then 15 years old, before we procure one? :)

When we brought our 2 month old baby, Tricia to Thailand, it was so timely that our Korean friends went back to Korea. They were kind enough to let us borrow their car for a while they were away for two months. Then before our Korean friends came back to Thailand, another family friend were going back to US for 6 months and they said they could use their car. So, that's total of 8 months of our baby (and us!) enjoying and being seated comfortably in the car wherever we go. This has triggered more desire for us to pray for a car and we did. Even some of our friends who visited us, included our 'desire' in their prayers without telling them so.

Then a few weeks before our American friend was coming back to Thailand, we saw a big FOR SALE sign on top of a nice black NIssan Sunny car. The car was displayed in the church and the owner is one of the church members. We inquired of the price and the method of payment. He said, it costs 110,000 Baht but he can lower it down for to 90,000 Baht. We can pay a downpayment of 50,000 baht but the rest of the balance must still be paid in cash within the month because he needs the money urgently.

We were really so tempted with his offer. But the question is.."where to get money?"..So, my HUbby and I prayed for a week. But after a week, nothing came. No answer to our 90,000 Baht question. ..and our American friend is almost coming back..so for sure we have to return back their car..So, with a heavy heart we just let it go.

Then just a few days after we let go of the NIssan Sunny Car. We received an email for our American friend who owned the car we were using. He said, that they'll be coming back to Thaialnd in a few weeks time and...HE IS GIVING US HIS CAR!!... As simple as that! No conditions ..no downpayments, no installment plans..but he's just gave it to us for FREE. We had to read and reread his short email again and again to check whether we have misunderstood it.

And oh, we just rejoiced in God's answer to our prayers! God really had a better plan for us and that was the reason why we never came up with 90,000 Baht because he wants to have us a car that cost us NOTHING!

Our God is truly amazing..a God that meets the desire of our hearts.

So, up to now, we are still enjoying and being seated comfortably in the green Nissan Sunny that God has provided to us. We're continually amazed at God's provision and at the same time our friends' generosity.
