The Angels in my Life



Someone once told me, that God sends us angels when He knows we cannot cope, when we need help. Here are my angels who help me cope with my everyday chores.





Sixteen years ago, Zumi came into my life. She was only a 14-year girl then. First time away from home (a kampung in Kalimantan), she must have felt very afraid!!

Today, she is a very confident lady, very efficient in her work and speaks almost perfect English. She cannot write nor read, but she can do banking and help me run my business.
She also cooks and bakes very well.
Actually, she practically runs my whole household!!


This is Wiji. 5 years ago, she came from Indonesia to work. Frail-looking then, and speaking an unfamiliar language, we managed to get by together.

She is a marvellous person! She looks after my mother day and night and is able to manage everything around the house. And like I always tell everyone, she does the work of 3 persons. She can handle all my mother's need although my mother is wheelchair-bound.

What more!! She is always happy and smiling.




This angel is Emma. Emma lives next door to me. Every afternoon, she keeps my mother company -  telling stories, laughing while watching TV but most of all...... Mum loves it when Emma gives her an hour-long whole body massage!!









Masnor used to cycle pass my house every evening after work. After some time, he will call out and wave to me, and is always cheerful.

God must have sent him to me, seeing all the work around the house. Masnor sees to all the little jobs. Some days, he repairs the faulty lightbulbs. Other days, he repairs my broken furniture. Some Sundays when he is free, he will call out to me to ask if I have any work for him.

Last Sunday. he helped with the garden, he helped trimmed off some large branches and even
helped me with my vegetable patch!!


How truly Blessed I am!!
