Had lunch with my "cover" and my good friend, Rubecca...as Taiwanese christians call people who are your spiritual covering. Well, there was Jeff, the producer who helps me out randomly almost every week or so by suggesting some odd project or 2 to increase my portfolio. I've been recording at GOOD TV for the last 2 days, some band playing and some singing. It's a start. Gives you experience you need in front of an audience that is not so critical as the norm. Or as interested in gossip or silly things.
It was simple lunch at an old little 热炒 [literally translated as hot stir-fry] restaurant. Eggs, Huan Zhu Hiok [sweet potato leaves], Kangkong, Fish, Fried rice, Beehoon and pork, Taufufa and Liong Fun.
Mr "Cover" is Bro. Lin Jian Ping (剑萍哥). He has a daughter my age, so he treats me like another one. Today he expounded on why it takes more effort to depend on God as we progress in our spiritual life. And he also talked about the perils of being too rich and self-reliant. And he talked about the difficulties of navigating around jadedness in our Christian life. Most of all, He emphasized that a big part of waiting upon the Lord and renewing our strength is HOPE. We KNOW God will come through for us. Now wait around in cynicism.
Well, I am endeavouring to absorb that in my spirit. God is for me. God will come through for me, especially when I don't know what on earth I'm doing. As long as heaven has a clue what I'm doing and will inform me, I will try not to mind so much.
Listening to: A taiwanese singing Coldplay style. LOVE it.
