Full skeletal X-rays tomorrow

Hi,
Sorry for not updating the blog for such a long time. I was busy with work and had not even take a day off to spend some time with the family during this school holiday. It is hard to imagine, almost 2 weeks have passed since the beginning of the school holiday. David had been kept busy too spending time with Josh, bringing him on MRT train rides, playing football with him, swimming and even inviting Josh's friends and cousins over to play. Well, thank God there is still one more month to go before the holiday ends and we have planned to go to Malacca for a short break with some friends next weekend. Please pray for journey mercy and a blessed time.

David shared about his last medical checkup and I am so thankful that there are no M cells in the blood tests. He has been scheduled to do a full skeletal test tomorrow morning (appointment at 8am). Covet your prayers for him that all be well and that he be in excellent health. Praise the Lord who knows our every thought and cares about what we are going through. He so graciously reminded me in the daily devotion time that "My promises never fail." in 1 Kings 8:56 "Blessed be the Lord, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that He promised: there hath not failed one word of all His good promise." Am reminded to depend on His promises, stand upon them, trust them, and live them. "If God be for us, who can be against us?"

May we walk according to God's promises each and every day.

Please continue to pray for XinXin too and please refer to her blog for updates. Join us also to pray for our friend's sister-in-law who is still in coma, (thank God her recent lung infection has cleared) and all those who needs healing and strength in their battle with cancer. The Lord says that the battle is His and victory is ours. Praise the name of Jesus forevermore!

Thanks & God bless,
Whee Ling

School Holidays have just begun....

The exams are over and we want to thank you for praying for Josh. He did well. Also, he was at a swimming competition last weekend and his team came in third for 200m freestyle relay unexpectedly. As for the individual events, he made significant improvements on his personal best times for the freestyle and butterfly events. Thank God that swimming regularly has helped him to keep fit and healthy.

The school holidays have just begun......Josh is all excited as he has many plans - from playing soccer to basketball; taking long MRT and bus rides and even has plans to invite some of his friends over for 'party'.

As for me, my next appointment with Dr.William Hwang is on Thursday, 20 Nov. The spinal pain has decreased but occasionally, I get pain on certain parts of my ribs. I am currently seeing my doctor every 3 weeks for my regular check ups and intravenous Zometa for healing of my bones. It all seems to be in control and we are believing God for continous and complete healing in spite of the pain. Guess I am reminded to continue to exercise my faith regardless of the presenting facts. Our God is big and surely there is no mountain that he cannot remove.

blessings,
david.
