Slowing Down


About two weeks ago, Monte and I were on our way to MacRitchie Reservoir.  On our way, two beautiful cats caught our attention.  While we took their pictures, we were amazed that they kept still and gazed at us.  Whenever, we see a cat, Monte will love to pat and cuddle it.

In the hustle and bustle of living in Singapore, we take time to chill out.  We make a deliberate attempt to slow down.  We make time to smell the flowers, time to soak in the beauty of God’s creation.  Very often, we will lie down on a beach somewhere and gaze into the night sky.  These moments are moments when the Lord will flood our hearts with His goodness and greatness.

We love to enjoy a good cup or Kopi-C Siew Dai or Teh-C Siew Dai (coffee or tea with evaporated milk and less sugar) along with good reading materials at Toastbox and coffee shops.  We just find it relaxing.

We love to walk in the nature reserves like the board walks in Changi, Lower Seletar Reservoir and MacRitchie Reservoir.  Besides that, we love to take long walks.  Oftentimes, we will be praying while we are walking.  God is so good.
