Prayer

This gonna be my last post of the day before I sleep and off for 3 days.

Today in the cell group we learn about prayer.


click the image to download the 300 DPI one version in 5 minutes. :)

Just to make it simple as I am pretty sleepy now..

There's 2 questions asked:
1. What is prayer for us?
2. Why we need to pray?

God listen to our prayer.
And He has 3 answers for us:
1. Yes
2. No (God has a better answer)
3. Not Yet (His time is not our time, and His time is beautiful)
We can easily accept the "yes" answer, but we hardly can accept the word "no" and "not yet". What we need to do is trusting that God knows better than us, to give the right answer for every of our prayers.

How to make God listen to our prayer?
1. Faith, believe in Him
2. Pray like what He wants, not what we wants
3. Do the right things (based on His Words)

I learn today that: God wants me to believe in Him, to pray like what He wants, and to do the right things.
And I need to trust Him with prayer for every single things that I do, including designing in this scrapbook world.
And I need to believe in Him that He will leads my way.

I realize that I am not depending on Him in every decision that I make. But He wants me to communicate with Him even for the simplest things in my life (like maybe the color of my next kit? :) - as simple as that). I realize that I tend to do things like what "I want" before asking Him, and when I hit the stone, I then remember that I forget to asked Him before.
These things I should change start from N O W.

I has a big empathy person, easily touch by people's kindness, easily sad while hearing bad news. Easily happy for other people's happiness, and blue as I heard on sad news even things that's not related to me at all. But I do know I am not "hard to teach".
That makes me need to depend on God more about my heart.

Tomorrow I am up for holiday with few families.
I do wish tomorrow I can walk with God even in the holiday. And that God will talk to me more about my faith.

Hugs to you all!

Off for 3 days.

Start from tomorrow, I will be off for 3 days, so if you contact me, please be patient. :)

About Ruel and a Peek a Boo RAK.. ;) {CLOSED}

Hi ladies!!
Thank you so much for your sweet comments on Ruel's art, really makes me happy.. so happy.. Thanks for let me share some of my happiness..

And I had answer some question in my comment box but just incase you don't read..

For those who questioned why his therapies won't let him learn drawing (Denise and TeenaBugg38), yes Ruel has PDD NOS (pervasive development disorder - not other specific), it's under DSM IV category, under the autism spectrum. Even though you can hardly recognize him when you met him, unless you are a mother of child with special needs, which will train your eyes to be easily recognize children with the same spectrum as your children. :) In other words, he is very very mild, after 2 years therapy.

Teena, what is your blog? I would like to read your story, too, if you write them at your blog. :)

(Well I think I wanna write his story one day)

He has a really high imagination, sometimes kinda vivid, and his therapies afraid that drawing class can make his imagination goes wider (and maybe wilder? :P ). But really I don't really get it either if that can makes a big deal. So I just follow my mother instinct to just go for it. ;)


And all.................., thank u sooooooo much, it makes my cheek bloom now. LOL.

I was thinking about the little drum, too, but since I not an expert in music (I do play guitar but autodidact - so I have no basic at all), so I kinda confuse how to teach him. But maybe I can just do it for fun, right? Just for him to understand this.


Anyway, today Ruel was absent from school because of cough, flu, and vomit yesterday. Well.. no fever but the weather is totally bad bad bad lately, and many children got cough, too, and his class, so I decide to take him a break and take a rest at home.

We are doing a drawing activity. He wanna draw his go-kart but it's actually too complicated for a 3 year, but well.. he insist and ok.. let's do it I think. Even though we change some of the colors. Especially the "black" color. I wanna teach him to avoid black, silver, and gold color 1st as it's tend to make the overall art "die", unless he already an expert on it (well hope you understand what I mean - my English is limited). :P

This was the latest creative progress.
Well NO we are not drawing on the bed. We do all on the table, just the latest touch. Hehehe.. This is when I tought it was finished already then I realize he haven't give the finishing touch (the sky), so I am giving him the book and asked him to give the finishing touch, and he did that.



ops.. this is how the go-kart looks like:
This photo was taken Sept 11, 2009 - Friday. The 1st time we bough it. :) Just wanna show you how the go-kart looks like.



and here is the latest result. :)



the "yellow" was changed to red. It's what he wants.
But the black wheel and steering wheel is what I asked him to change the colors. Red is also his choice.
Others are all his choice of colors.



He wasn't looking at the camera, since there's a dog show on TV while I took the photo. :)


That's our activity today. :)

Anyway.. now this is the other thing I wanna share with you. :)
I am opening another Peek-a-Boo-RAK!!
The theme is BOYS BOYS BOYS! :D



So just leave me something here and you can win it.

Just a note, since I will be off for holiday - it's my 1st vacation after 5 years.. :) , after I post the winner I will be off for 3 days with no internet, so you need to wait a bit longer before you got the coupon. :)


Don't forget to check back here for the winner!

Have a blessed and haaaaappy day!!

Hugs,
Kitty

Ruel's Art Works

Today I wanna share about Ruel's art work. :)
Because of his interest of drawing, I really want to put him to a kiddie art class once a week to learn drawing with a right way.
But however his therapies won't allowed it and say that it's not good for him. I don't know the reason is like he will has a wilder imagination, sensory seeking things, etc.
The class suggested for him is music class: drum.
However his feet is still too short for drum class, after asking from my friend who has master degree of drum.
And I really confuse of what to do. Drum is for 6 years, and Ruel is 3 years.

However, finally this year I decide to insist put him to the art class, as he really love it, and I think it will be good for him (mother instict maybe? Hope it is right).. If not I can always take him out from the class. Or if he hates it, then I will stop it. :)

Well you will know that whatever the result, I will think that as the most beautiful art ever born in the world. Hehhehe...

This is his 1st hand drawn, 18 Feb 2010 - Thursday, at the class.
Really cute big bird. Hehee..




and this is the 2nd one. :)
Yesterday, 22 Feb 2010 - Thursday.





So far when I asked the teacher, she said that he loves it.
And it is so far so good. :) And I really love to see his hand drawn.
So I am happy for it. :D

Well.. music class should wait. Maybe at least when he is 4? :)

A little interuption bla bla from me. ;)

Beautiful and beautiful share, everyone!!
Right now I had read from post 1 to 12 (Natascha to Gabi). And I had been touched for such a simple words but strong expression from you. Keep on posting, it does bless me and I know others, too!

Looking at our boy's eye just when he woke up like Maygirl said.. and falling inlove again with tiny little children like Ree-Ree said... I agree it.. I always amazed on how such a little children can fill our heart with such a HUGE love?

and Gabi, I feel the same with you. After I have Ricks and Ruel, Saturday and Sunday had always be my best day of the week as we can spend time together the whooole day!

But other than other beautiful love we have in our life such as family and children. There's also another love that not less beautiful than that, a love that we earn from sacrifice, learn to understand, learn to forgive, learn to accept. A love for others that maybe "not worth" to be loved. As none of us are even worth to be loved as we all covered by sin, yet God's agape love make it transformed to be a human who give His life for us. :)

I read a beautiful book named: The Wednesday Letter.



When I 1st see this book, I only though the cover is beautiful and the story looks interesting. And since I don't have anything to read again lately, I bough the book and start reading it. Then I impressed on how love expressed SO STRONG in this book. A love than born because of a long hurtful progress yet it gave birth to happiness and unity.

It's not only a romantic book, it said a words that I never forget:

Because God forgive, then we have no choice, instead of to forgive.


Those words dancing on my head until today since I finished reading the books around 1 and half week ago. :)


And btw...

NO, the peek-a-boo RAK is still open, no winner yet. :)
I just wanna share what cross my mind now before I go to bed. :)

Go ahead and post for the chance to get my coming soon kit for free at my post below: HERE.

Hugs and have a blessed day or night!
