Portside Wharf

I've been spending  a morning a week at Portside lately. It's because I purchased a really cheap voucher for 4 visits to Elle Bache. Note to whoever is interested, Elle Bache is good at skincare but really below average for massages. Go for the skin.They do it quite well. They diagnose skin conditions and get rid of black heads.  Don't go for any massage treatments. 

For Massages, click here. Found the massage therapist Maureen to be very good. Feel like going back soon. But unfortunately, everything I've gone to is in the Nortside, because of work. Sigh. Can anyone reccomend decent massage therapists in the Sunnybank, Garden City, Eight mile plains area?

Took Peggy out for breakfast for her birthday. Wish I could have done a bit more actually. Could have sent her to her interview earlier on. But I was super tired from work, cooking and recording all week-end. 

I think I'm learning to trust God a bit more now. I've observed my own life and the timing of God in giving me things. When I don't push for things, and I keep trusting Him, he introduces things at the right time, when I'm ready to deal with it. I prayed for a steady job for 2 years while I was still in uni. I got it after that 2 years [3rd year uni] and found that I was just strong enough to cope with it without breaking down with the load of ministry, uni and work. If the teaching job had come any earlier, I doubt I could have done it. 

Furthermore, I've been wishing for a car. But honestly, I also knew I was not ready for the resposibility of owning it, therefore I didn't pray very hard. I was overwhelmed by the potetntial responsibility doing all the nitty gritty things like driving to new unfamiliar places, rego, insurance, servicing, petrol, and most of all, ferrying people around. Last year, God told me to give the car to Him, which I did. Now, He has provided in a way that I can at least handle without feeling too overwhelmed. I still need to take on new responsiblities. Driving to new places all the time can be scary and stressful, especially without a GPS and I don't read maps that well. I have started to ferry people around. But the car was provided in such a way that when I do get my own, I think I'll be a lot more ready and toughened up. It's a good feeling not to be scared of Brisbane roads anymore.

I think, with this, I need to trust Him that when He provides my career opportunities, when He provides a life partner, it will be when I am ready to take it on and not crash and burn. 

Thank you God.
You always know best.
I shouldn't be surprised. But You do have my best interests at heart after all.
Love ya :)

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!
