lady marmalade

I've been given some career advice lately. Well, all the time actually. Some people have asked me to go up for some singing competitions like Idol [the equivalent in Taiwan is One Million Stars and Super Idol]

Today I watched some past episodes of these competition. I was a bit turned off by the dancing episodes. Someone was singing 'Lady Marmalade', and all kinds of stripper moves were pulled off in a half-baked way. I admit, it's a very catchy hit, but DO they know they are singing a song about hookers in Paris?

Is there no way to entertain with dancing as a female but to do stripper moves? Well. You can. Sing the World Cup theme 'Waka, waka'. I think they did an excellent job [the dancers]...it was bright, friendly, happy and very energetic.

So many subtle choices you have to make if you decide to go for it in such things. I'm feeling quite .... overloaded mentally at the moment.

A few things came up during the prayer. She didn't specifically prophesy. But the way she was praying, she was getting stuff from the Spirit. She prayed Prov 4:18 ( The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full light of day)  over me, for some time, stating that God would lead me, and the path would become brighter and brighter, clearer and clearer. I was to have faith. More faith that God would lead me safely and surely. She also stated the need to seek God even more through prayer for his presence and guidance (guilty. It's been difficult to be disciplined about prayer). She prayed and declared that my work would be the platform for many good things God wanted to do through me. The work and the position I had in my work was important, she...
