Jesus, Ever Abiding Friend

Jesus remains solidly my abiding friend day after day, week after week , month after month and year after year! How precious to me His faithful friendship is...
Jesus ever abiding friend
My soul's rest and journey's end
Blameless one who erased my sin
For eternity
Comfort through my deepest pain
Love that sees beyond my shame
Christ the sweetest dearest name
That my heart has ever known
Jesus Saviour with crown of thorns
My soul's peace forevermore
Constant caring redeeming Lord
Life abundantly
Rock of Heaven strength and shield
Perfect holiness revealed
Christ by whom my wounds were healed
Name above all other names

Remembering our human fragility...

A meditative Celtic tune by Keith Getty with lyrics by Maire Brennan

This fragile vessel You have made

No hand on earth can fill

For the waters of this world have failed

And I am thirsty still

Chorus:
We can be worthy of His love, wisdom and mercy

Take this bread and wine

As we share His cross and crown

Receive the grace sent down

I seek the treasures of Your love

It's not that far to see

I heard a melody above

A gift from You to me

(Chorus)

To save what's lost from heaven He came

His presence still remain

Open our eyes to His precious blood

Because it's not in vain

(Chorus)

The last stanza is especially endearing and reassuring - knowing that His presence remains through the Holy Spirit and His precious blood shed for us is not in vain!

Remembering our wedding anniversary...

This day, 15 April, marks our wedding anniversary. And though now separated by death, you are remembered with love and deep fondness for your love of the family and for your fear of the LORD.

"She does him good, and not harm,

all the days of her life.

Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,

but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised."

Proverbs 31:12, 30 (ESV)

In Memoriam: Juliana Koh (28 Dec 1962 - 6 April 2009)

Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all! Prov. 31:29

Remaining always in our loveliest and fondest memories...

We thank God for every remembrance of you,

With love from David, Melissa & Miranda Leong

Your family on this side of heaven

6 April 2010

Towards the First Anniversary

Time moves on quickly and we are drawing close to the first death anniversary of Juliana which falls on April 6th, 2010. While time may lessen the grief, memory turns back every leaf of a wife and mother who is so wonderfully kind, gentle and virtuous. One who always places family before self and have left lasting memories with us.

All of us in the family have been touched by her life and testimony. We thank God for the beautiful memories and for Juliana who came into our lives and have made them beautiful!

Marking the 11th month

It's been 11 months since Jul's homegoing on 6 April 2009. Time may ease the pain but certainly not the memories which remain fresh. Many things in daily life bring to mind Jul and the blessing she has been to me for over 20 years and the girls for as old as they each are. She is God's beautiful gift to us. I can say with all certainty that if I could rewind and re-live life all over again, I will still choose Jul to be my better half - no doubt about that! She has done her job as wife and mother so well that God decided to reward her with the blessings, peace and joy of heavenly life. We who remain do ask our heavenly Father to guide us to walk alright for our remaining time here and that we may, in due time, enter in to the joy of the Lord.
