Praise be to Gd! :) April 22, 2013

Truly TRULY amazed by our Gd.

His timing. His ways. His plans. His purpose. His relentlessnes.

He never gives up on us. never.

Romans 10: 9-13

If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of alland richly blesses all who call on him,  for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

Happy Baptism Day, Lor! Praise be to Gd! :)

 

THE Move to HK ^__^ April 15, 2013

Filed under: faith,life in HK,life in SH — chinabean @ 2:53 pm

Although it has never been officially announced, it is true, the move to HK is actually happening. After finishing up this school year at YKPAO, I will be moving on to HK to teach at a start up school in Sheung Wan, HK.

I’ve been pr@ying about it since last August and since the Lrd gave the okay to go forward… it’s been a whirlwind of logisitics and planning and asking the right questions to be lead to where I am today. However, this past weekend as I was filling out a debriefing/inventory for my past close to five years here in CN, I realised that I haven’t  allowed myself to emotionally recognise I am leaving til now.

The fact is that Shanghai has become a real sweet place for me and my relationship with Gd. It’s amazing. I cannot even begin to imagine how I will be able to say good bye to my roommies, friends, community, colleagues, students, ayi’s, breakfast man, hair washing ladies, masseuses, this CNC apt, etc… :)

So as I, begin to bring “closure” to this chapter of my life in the next 98 days.. may I walk ever so close to the Lrd, recognising that he prepares my steps.  Reading Re-Entry by Peter Jordan… even though i’m not re-entering, rather transitioning… but still.

more to come…

Fall is here November 2, 2012

Filed under: life in SH,palate of delight — chinabean @ 2:43 pm

Fall is my favourite season, I must confess. There’s something in the air. The change of seasons through the weather, leaves of trees, and adjustments to clothing. So many smells come to mind too… Like cinnamon and apple cider and baked yams… The seasons all pass by so quickly too… Planning to enjoy each and every day to the full… Today I got these lovely lovely first time found in shanghai….

… FUJI PERSIMMONS!

They’re crunchy like apples with little delicious specks of cinnamon inside.

Nature’s reminder that fall is here.

Stay warm as the season changes… Bundle up with your scarves and mittens :)
