Mothering-taste of it

i am single, not married, with no children.
hehe....u know later why i state this....:P

its not easy to do something out of me....
remembering tt time when You first called me...
was at B1 cuppage with Choon Yam...still rem those words i told him about what You showed me....

then it was a journey of more than 1+ year now...
people come and people go...
sometmies up and sometimes down
at times, like a smooth sailing slope theres time to rest and relax
at times, like uphill, theres time to stretch and labor hard...
whatever it is, You have been so faithful
that
wu2 hua4 ke3 shuo1 ( maybe i shld write a chinese poetry next time about Him, until He says la)
about who You are
along this process of who You showed Yourself to be as of now

somehow this resting time at home
got me to be very encouraged about
MOTHERING
yes, a task which i think even lack in the kids nowadays... ( m not going into tt for now)
(but i think always good for mothers to be around the kids when they are growing up, at least until they are "old" enough, i mean not to over shelter them, but to guide them in biblical ways etc...)
back to mothering...
i sense a "achievement" as mothering CG.....( ok, not that i m treating all you gals and guys as kids lo, nor taking the "credits" etc....)
but tt kind of shepherding....probably.
a nurturing heart, if it better describe it.
coz i was very glad, without the "mother" around.
you all can take care of yourselves.
One: God is real in your lives.
Second: its a healthy CG. Rem Eph 4:15-16.
( if everyone depends on a human person to move or grow, hm, where's the discipleship? everything would have fallen like sand, no foundation.)

i really felt so encouraged to hear CG went as well and people are rising up to be discipled for GOd.
as a "mother", i felt like tt.
the kind of joy which like a mother seeing her kids growing up and knowing how to take care of themselves.

Psa 119:49-50
Remember Your promise to me,
for it is my only hope.
Your promise revives me,
it comforts me in all my troubles.

and....perhaps, its time also for the kids, rather the growing children to know how to take care of others....
life's constant thing is change.
Let changes take place, according to Your will
coz without it, we may never grow.
