Back in Brissy

It's a little strange being back in the city of harsh realities and much growth. God has trained me in this city to grow up, to grow in ministry, in character, in life responsibilities. I am very grateful. Yet, I do not exactly love this city and its memories. They hold much pain...

Can growth ever happen without pain?

I think it will be a long time before I grow nostalgic for Brisbane. For one, I'm still here...:P

Routine is slowly coming back. I mean life is quite alright, despite the fact that Sophia and I are still homeless. Doyin has provided us with temporary accomodation, thank God for that and for her generosity. Today, I want to specially thank Allister as well, for being so kind and so willing to drive Sophia and I around for inspections and business issues [like storage extensions etc].
Lord God, please do grant us a house ASAP....by next week.
And the gorgeous pineland's sushi we had....AH.that is one of the best things Brisbane offers...

Working, going to lifegroup, Church is tomorrow. :).....Meeting all my students again.It was good to have a break. I view them now with fresher enthusiasm and vision. Challenging them to set goals and enrich their lives.Hehehe.

Back in Doyin's house, throwing pillows at my dear sheep, Jess, trying to cook rice cakes.

It's a lot less stressful without uni. I can actually go to work and not be already tired and stressed by lectures and homework.

Taking things calmly.....a lot more calmly than 2 years ago....or even 1 year ago. God. There is a strange hesitance in my heart to open myself to anyone about what happened in the holidays. But Lead me and guide me God....I cannot go on without You.

Always think of what you doing is building towards the goals that you have defined and so you find joy in it. When you start thinking of things as routine, you will get dull and stagnant, then life becomes meaningless.

Fear and Faith

I wish I could get rid of this feeling of underlying fear that grips me once in a while. After every high there is an inevitable crash. Or when I wake up, it's really hard to face the day not quite knowing what you should do or what the goal is in the end.  I can picture this trembling kid in my mind, who's quite desperate to cling on to something for safety and comfort. And that kid is me. But the kid's alone. And there's no one to actually to hang on to, and nothing to hug, not even a pillow. But the kid is also wary of clinging on to anything because that might prove disastrous, as it has in the past. You get entangled with unnecessary things or people So,  Kid is stuck with just holding nothing. Waiting.  I mean, it's not like God never warned or foretold that this journey would be lonely, I'd be seemingly alone, but He would be with me. I would look like I was wobbly but He would uphold me. The only time the fear really alleviates is when God's pres...

陶喆 David Tao Mash Up 2 - 流沙/普通朋友 (by Charis蔡佳靈 + Nray 胡恩瑞 + 森林ㄌㄜˋ園)

高中會重覆聽100遍的歌就是‘普通朋友' 和 ‘流沙‘ ☺️ 很開心可以和  森林ㄌㄜˋ園 團長阿綠把這兩首百聽不厭的歌串在一起,重編成band sound的歌;然後和  N-Ray 胡恩瑞  &樂手朋友們呈現出來。謝謝有才的朋友們的參與!也再次謝謝負責攝影間接 Rick Lin 。希望你們會喜歡~歡迎分享、留言、訂閱、按 💗  !也可以跟我們說你們要接下來聽的歌 (那些點‘沙灘’的朋友我已看見你們的留言!) I remember re-playing 'Regular Friends' and 'Everything's gone' so many times on the way to school. They were such classic hits! Here's the 2nd David Tao mashup video we produced. My gifted singer/songwriter/keyboardist friend Green Lee sat down with me to re-arrange it together (guess which other song we used as a base for the two tracks 😁 ?). Had lots of fun recording and shooting this with my talented pals! Please help us share around, and do subscribe if you haven't yet!
