“For great is your love,
higher than the heavens,
your faithfulness reaches to the skies.”
(Ps 108:4)
higher than the heavens,
your faithfulness reaches to the skies.”
(Ps 108:4)
The flowers are in full bloom. So are you.
How blessed we are!
How blessed we are!
21 years ago, one sunny day as I sat in Singapore Botanical Garden,
the early morning sun brought sparkles to the drops of dew on the
brightly coloured petals.
They glimmered and gleamed,
the whole bed
of flowers transformed into a wonderland of twinkle lights.
The garden titillated every one of my senses.
I saw the exquisite beauty of the blooming flowers.
I heard the gentle swooshing of the petals with the breezes.
I smelt the fragrant perfume.
I felt the smooth petals.

It was simply stunning!
My eyes were caught by a bright sunflower reaching out to the sky.
The beauty was second to none.
It reminded me, there and then, how valuable and precious
I am in His eyes!

And, right there, I named you, still in my womb,
Ker Qing*, the Sunshine Girl!

Happy 21st Birthday, Rachel, the Sunshine Girl.
