A place to call our own

Nope, we have not gotten our own place YET!

Look at the ridiculous numbers below....

* From HDB website

To think that we didn't even manage to get 5th floor (the lowest we're willing to take) for the punggol flat which is not very cheap either. My parents took a off-day from work and made a trip down to hdb to help us select a flat, only to waste their time looking at the list of "choice units" vanish from the screen a few queue numbers before ours!!
We can't figure it out...
Are there really that many people/newlyweds in S'pore who need to buy a new house?
A condo is way too expensive at this stage. When can we have our own place? When?
Maybe HE is making a way for us... HIS ways & thoughts are higher than ours. It's time again to realise that we should lean on HIS wisdom & move according to HIS will.

The keyword "INNOVATION"

Yes! I'm gonna make my dream come true!
Waiting to live for my passion....

Innovation
Today God Is First Volume 2 by Os Hillman

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" (Genesis 1:1).
"The concept is interesting and well-formed, but in order to earn better than a 'C,' the idea must be feasible."
Those were the words of a Yale University management professor in response to Fred Smith's paper proposing reliable overnight delivery service. Smith went on to found Federal Express Corp. which is the number one overnight delivery service in the world with 260,000 employees. Founder, Fred Smith, is synonymous with the word "innovation."
There have been many great innovators who have turned concepts into successful companies. Walt Disney said, "It's kind of fun to do the impossible."
God is the source of all creativity and innovation. He created the world in seven days. He has made you to create. If God has placed on idea in your heart to do, ask the Lord for His help in bringing it to reality. He desires to see His people create new things that can serve mankind and bring glory to God. Henry Ford once said, "Whether you think that you can, or that you can't, you are usually right."
Faith plays an important role when considering stepping out to launch a new endeavor. "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for" (Hebrews 11:1-2).
Perhaps you've failed in the past and you're afraid to step out again. Most successful entrepreneurs failed several times before they were successful. Don't let fear of failure keep you from success.
You were made to create. You were made to succeed.
