Disclaimer: I am FINE. Photo was from a few months back

I don’t consider myself a talented person. I think I don’t have talent in a lot of things. Even things that I enjoy doing very much.

But I do consider myself a hard working person. I don’t like giving up, even or especially when it means pushing myself to the limit. I like pushing limits (myself. Not others😬). And I thank God for that

I may not be talented in things but I think God gave me a certain relentlessness in the things I do. And it’s something I want to continuously give glory and credit to Him for. It could be so easy to claim that oh I’m a hardworking person. But truth be told, as much as God gives talent, God makes character too. And I was blessed with this.

And above and beyond that character, I was also blessed with a call on my life (or at least I think I do👉🏻👈🏻) of which I was fortunate to know very clearly. To serve, in this industry. To serve the people, no matter my position, no matter my capabilities.

As chefs, we often get questioned why we work so hard. Everyone will have their own answer whether it’s passion or a point to prove. But for me, my answer is how could I not? How could I not give my everything in what I do if God has called me to it, if God has ordained me for it. How could I not find every possible way I can to do what I was called to.
And with that calling to serve and love this industry, I believe He has also provided me with what I need to do it, that character.

That relentlessness? It’s not me, it’s Him. Hardworking? Passionate? No, it’s all God. I am none of those things. I’m simply a vessel of sorts, to carry out what’s in His Heart for the people of this industry. And I can only hope that I’m doing it well.

Colossians 3:23 23
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters

Be relentless in what you do

3 years ago, I started doing push ups in the middle of MCO. And well here we are today.

Thank you God for strength, mental and physical, to pull through

How lucky I am, that in this world of billions, God decided that I’d get to be the one to hold your hand. To walk with you, to grow with you.

Happy Anniversary 🫶🏻

A little peek into how I manage my time in training for a race whilst working a 12-hour workday. Being a full time chef and training hyrox is already crazy enough on its own, you just gotta be a little crazier to do it together 🤷🏻‍♀️.

But of course, this isn’t a daily thing. training schedules on other days would look a bit different based on errands, work, etc.

Aiming for a 1:40:00 time for my race in March. Wish me luck. For those who are also racing, see you there.

“Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses. So that Christ’s power may rest on me.
For when I am weak, then I am strong”

Someone tell the kid on the last photo that he’s gonna finish a hyrox race one day. Who would’ve thought.

So many nights, the last thing I wanted to do after being on my feet all day, was to train. Knee pain, feet pain, back pain. There were more reasons to stop than to keep going. But, where’s the fun in that.

A “necessary pain”, as we would say in the kitchen coz growth is often found in difficult situations.

So here I am, at the finish line of this race, praying that God’s strength has shown in my weaknesses, and that I have grown.

Soli Deo Gloria

Moving on to a new chapter in life is always such a bittersweet moment.

If I had a dollar for every noodle, mochi, and chicken leg I’ve made in this place, I’m sure I could retire soon 💀

I thank God for every opportunity I’ve been given in this place. Opportunities to meet new people, to learn new things, to grow, to live. Thank you friends, for making it such a great place to work.

Here’s a little compilation of the stupidity that goes in a daily life of mine for the past few years
Thank you Fifty Tales. Till next time

As always, onwards and upwards. by @spenceresccc
