and a damn good one. And it is so timely especially when I have been thinking about stepping down from serving in the worship ministry for a few months now.
I am so thankful that she's gonna shadow me so I can slowly switch to an increased involvement in AV. I have always been on sound duty but I think I like to learn how to operate the visual aspect as well. I also like to know the inside outs of how to set up the sound system from scratch.
And so these are the plans for the remaining half of the year. I think there's more but I am praying for greater clarity. Will update when that comes.

plans for 2016
I am excited because of the possibility of attending Hillsong 2016, and then travelling to Canada with the pie pie to meet her family and travel around. I was thinking of spending another 3- 4 weeks around Canada to read, write and seek God's plan for the next phase of my life. Perhaps also to compile a book of the insights of a christian lesbian blogger. :p
As usual, plans won't be certain until closer to the date. In the meantime, there are so many opened doors. MOE international school in Hk (my cousin got connections with the P), Shanghai International School (I got to resign for this job but my ex-classmate was looking for PE teachers), submitting my thesis as a journal paper (my supervisor texted me to ask if I wanted to), becoming an Art Consultant in my friend's to be Art Gallery (she will coach me on all those artistic bullshit so she said), my ex- P telling me to look for her if she's not retired (so she can hire me as a flexi-adjunct teacher)... taxi driving, waitressing, petrol attendant... going to bible school... the possibilities are endless :p
Looking for the break to seek God on what's next.

creating space for the holy spirit to speak
I spent 40 minutes reading the bible this morning in the quiet of the Nook. And though I was quite caught up with the story of King David and his life, it didn't feel like the spirit was speaking to my heart.
A few hours later, as I was starting to drive to run some errands. I switched CDs in the car and the moment the song Let it be Jesus started playing, my attention was caught by the first two sentences: " Let it be Jesus, the first name that I call. Let it be Jesus, my song inside the storm" My heart opened and subsequently, listening to the same song repeatedly, I felt refreshed and recharged.
Lesson learnt: Doesn't matter how quiet the environment is or what spiritual discipline you are practising. If the heart is not open and ready to receive the touch of the holy spirit, you won't get anything. Geddit??
