Coincidence?

Many of you already know that Singapore has been affected by a haze from the peat forrest burning in Indonesia. This following is the PSI reading (Pollution Standard Index, anything below 50 is good) from the East of Singapore over the last 10 days (you can find the detailed version here):

  • Sunday (15th Oct '06): 93
  • Monday (16th Oct '06): 91
  • Tuesday (17th Oct '06): 86
  • Wednesday (18th Oct '06): 75
  • Thursday (19th Oct '06): 73
  • Friday (20th Oct '06): 96
  • Saturday (21st Oct '06): 75
  • Sunday (22nd Oct '06): 67
  • Monday (23rd Oct '06): 78
  • Tuesday (24th Oct '06): 45!!!!
Yup, the PSI dropped off a cliff to 45 today! According to this news report today, it is due to "a turnaround in wind directions". Was it a coincedance that today is R1 & R2's outdoors birthday party by the beach and we have been praying against all odds (and weatherman forecasts - this report from Monday 23rd Oct was still calling for haze till the end of the week) that it would be a clear day this morning so the kids can have a safe and fun time outdoors today? You decide.

All I can say is that we did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to deserve this, but God is just THAT GOOD!

I know that a lot of you have races coming and are already into your taper periods. I praise God that He is helping me to build the faith to know that He has kept you safe in training and will continue to speed your efforts!

PRAISE GOD!

Kewl,

That's great to hear..Praise the Lord...

Really like your last post. I start to redefine what it means to be strong..

not necessary fight and win all the time but rather the willingness to restraint myself from my emotions.
