Tang ketegal ulah sekeda ari bala indu ke enggai kerja begilir, kerja malam, etc ke nanggul aku ngambi sida. Maya aku belaboh suba, barang maya dikagau; aku sigi nurun. Kadang kerja sampai pagi; nadai bisi sebana. Orang biak diatu, diasoh kerja lebih, diasoh kerja malam, diasoh nurun ke padang ... semua enda ulih; lebih agi sida ke indu.

10 Latest Updates ...

1. Enjoyed my 10 days alone with my darling, doing all the mummies duties ... wow! I love it but am glad that my parents are home again to help me! Its time like these that the contribution/help from my parents are greatly appreciated! Love you Mom & Dad and we miss you very much; and glad that your home with us, now! :D

2. This question comes up a lot over the week - What does it means to be a Christian Woman? Methodist Woman? Would love to hear your honest views/opinions, friends!

3. Its packing time, and was dealing with my darling daughter's first - found that she had 2 jeans. 2 long sleeve shirts, 2 set thermal suits, 2 sweaters, 1 winter jacket set (complete with hat, gloves, scarf), walking shoes, and that's it. Is that enough for 3 weeks wintery weather? Not if we are to smell good!!! So she needs maybe 2 more pairs of jeans & 2 l/sleeve shirts?! I know, I know ... all we're going to see in the pictures will be the winter jacket, hat, gloves & scarf .... but, hey! got to wear relatively clean inner wears too! ;)

4. Pulled out my jeans (yup, I do wear them and they are at least 20 years old, great condition, fit well (in January 2010!!) and my many sweaters (yup from 10 yrs ago but worn annually!!) and find that they fit me fine but tighly! mmmmm

5. Weight myself this week ... WOW!!! I need to loose the extra kgs!!! ok ok friends, I know that I have extra kgs as it is; BUT this is new extra kgs from the existing extra kgs .. got it??!!! LOL I need personal trainer ... any volunteer? ;)

6. Self-examination of one's faith & commitment to the Church/Methodist Women. Prioritizing on the various commitment ... Lord give me the strength to deal with all these! Give me the strength, wisdom, etc also to deal with these young/old women.

7. I am all set for my leave!! Really excited about this adventure with my darling! :)

8. It still amazes me that senior officers still need guidance/reminders in carrying their duties/functions! There is a limit to the level of tolerance/understanding to incompetencies! It upsets me when their works are linked with mine, and then they have the audacity to say, they are not 'aware' of requests, 'overlooked', or whatever 'excuses' that comes to their mind! Yet, they are given opportunities for promotion!! Brings to mind the statement ... some people works for 10 years and gain 10 years of experience, whilst others may only gain a year's experience!

9. Scheduled to travel for 2 days to Kota Kinabalu next week; but I am just not in the mood to go as the workshop topics are nothing new. There's only so much knowledge/information that can be 'drilled' into me. So only my young technician will attend it. He will enjoy the environment!

10. The wheels of government machinery moves at its own pace. You want to be get upset, what's the point; it will get done when it gets done! The only good thing is that, I am just waiting for the formal letter - as I have been informed that 'it' had been verbally approved. Yet, I feel better once the letter is in hand. :D

Change is Here...

Praise the Lord, Wind of Change is blowing through Sarawak Iban Annual Conference-Methodist Women! How 'strong' the 'wind' will depend on His chosen group of 'young' ladies who have been elected to lead for the next 2 years. Pray for us to receive guidance/blessing to do his work and fullfill the mission at hand. The theme for the next quadranium is "Spreading the Gospel, Transform the Nation" (hope the translation is right, but I will get the English version, soon and update here).

In any organization/society, Change is hard to accept and lots of resistance to it from the 'old' timers or former leaders, but with prayers and guidance from the President SIAC Rev Steward Damat, we tend to 'follow' and be 'guided' by our spiritual leader. Thank you Lord for your merciful blessings and guidance!

Here's the new 'young' ladies, 95% first timers, elected to lead the SIAC-MW for the next 2 years. May the Lord bless and guide them as they do Lord's works through Methodist Women aka Bala Indu Methodist.

By the way, yours truly was nominated for the post of President, and was appointed as Vice-President. You will wonder ... how does the system works? Well, I lost the election for the Presidency and thus appointed as the Vice. This was one of the challenge and matter that I have been praying about for years, to be or not to be; to heed the call or ignore it? In the end, I leave it to His hands and He has spoken and defined the role. Include me in your prayers that I will be able to deliver and serve.

Maybe as I wonder, and I'm sure others do also is how am I going to fit THIS new role into my already busy life! Work is already so demanding with my many functions/responsibilities coupled with my leadership of Sarakup, other community societies PLUS now MW? Well, the Lord knows what you need and put you in the 'right' place and creates 'right' environment etc.. PLT, my 2 key officers in Sarakup are now more free to take more active roles; see how the Lord 'arranges' our life!

Let's go forth, and do what we have to! I would love to quote great Bible verses at this juncture, but know only one (recognizing this as my weakness) and so I will leave with a request my friends ... Pray for me always to have the wisdon, strength, love, and passion to do Lord's work in whatever capacity He has emplaced me!
