Total Obedience

Looks like it was ages ago that I last penned down my thoughts here. May 10th, going by the last entry here. Wow. And it seemed like a few months have gone past. Had been busy with wedding rehearsals, work, ministry and volunteering. Somehow, my life seems to be revolving around the middle 2 at the moment, with the last coming into the picture like a trickling stream. Was involved in backstage for a concert organised by Jon How in support of mercy relief's efforts in Sri Lanka this past weekend. Roped in Cassie to help with lights. Pretty nervy and tiring, considering that we only had the one and only dry run on the day itself, but somehow things turned out well. Then there's the forum that Jon's gonna organise for September. Guess I will be spending some time helping out as well. It's been kinda fun getting to know new people and rub shoulders with musicians and just spend time with close friends :)

Managed to have an encounter with a prophetess whom my boss invited for a meeting. Been about 2 years or more since my last encounter with someone with the gift of prophecy. Felt the call to strengthen my prayer walk and life with God and walk in total obedience, something this sister told all of us to do. She also pointed out to me some areas in my life that are good, and other areas that need work. But she also mentioned some things that I didn't understand. Like I'm "stuck cos I'm walking in 2 realms right now". Yeah, realms was the term used. I should have used my hp to record down her prophecy over me, but I was too overwhelmed to do much but bow my head and listen and nod. Need to continue to pray to hear what God has to say to me for my life. There's still so much I want to know, need to know. I know He's always close by, and He's also in me, so I don't have to reach too far out to find Him.

Figuring Out or Working Title

I really don't know what to call this entry. Posting this at the national library where I'm camped out trying to seek a copy of the Wolverine Origins (nice movie, btw) but apparently all copies here are out on loan. That and trying to balance a fight against the cold climate with my jacket and staying online with the apparently overcrowded networks judging by the number of laptop users camped out in the study lounge on the 5th floor. Currently camped out listening to the (partial) recording of OOOM6 near the back of the basement where I managed to find an empty power socket.

Things hopefully will improve for me after this week, work wise. If all goes well, I should be able to make a substantial breakthrough. Have to pray that things will be as planned. Some aspects of which have dragged around for a few months already, and I have no wish for things to drag further.

Been writing more into the notebook of late. Logged down a few entries on Wednesday evening alone as I sat in the White House at Emily Hill listening to the open mic going on. Kinda moved by Mercy Relief's efforts to help those affected by the civil war in Sri Lanka. There's gonna be a full fledged concert on the 24th of May at the DBS Authorium, 7pm. Should be headed down to support and also see where Jon may need help.

Really need to seek God's wisdom again, not just in work but also in every area in life. There's still a lot of aspects in my life that can improve, and with God's help, they will. Have to always bear the 2nd half of 2 Corinthians 6 in mind as I walk on, as well.

"Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, 'Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.' " Hebrews 13:5
