Back in January 2012, my dear husband shared in his January Newsletter that he had been given a word, “abundance” by the Lord. And now in December, as I look back, it has indeed been a year of abundance. In the homeschooling front, we were blessed to be able to graduate another child from the […] Read more…
Health
Chided
Nothing like a crisis to make us go down on our knees and cry out to the Lord. In the midst of my crying out to the Lord for healing and relief from the itch and pain, I thought I was hungry for God. But I was actually only hungry for His healing power. I […] Read more…
A Story in Pictures
Eczema is a beast. But God is greater than it. It took about 2 years for my skin to be almost clear of all the rashes. I have done and tried many things. But God… It is He who healed me. No, I am not 100% clear. But I know I will be. All praise to Him. He still heals today. Be encouraged those of us waiting for a full restoration of health. Don’t give up on God! Read more…

Who can we trust?
This appeared in today’s Straits Times. Written by Andy Ho, he thinks it is time Big Pharma’s big salaried executives get jail time instead of just a fine when it resorts to trickery and number manipulation to get more people hooked on their drugs. Big Pharma is smart. It goes through doctors, people whom the […] Read more…
Steroids just make eczema worse
And this is why we want to avoid steroids – topical and oral! “Is this you? Your history began in treating mild to moderate eczema with the use of an over-the-counter (OTC) weak topical corticosteroid then the use of a mid-strength to super-potent topical corticosteroid prescribed by a physician. The story proceeds the same way […] Read more…
Another one bites the dust
No, I am not referring to the scandal that is the talk of the town here in Singapore 🙂 Instead, I am referring to yet another cure for eczema, which came highly recommended, but which has failed to do anything for us – yet again. In view of that, dh said that I should write down […] Read more…
