Starting Clean n Fresh..and O how hard this is!

There was a time
when it was simple
to start over
just kick the dust
shame the shame
grin
grit - and -
go.

But with years
and a tad of wisdom
It just aint so easy
no more

resolve
resolute even
and sutbborn, rutted ways that have made a home
tracked all over your soul
permanently marking you
belonging
to the
broken
wounded
helpless

and sometimes, it seems, hopeless...

as a friend once wrote:
all broken up and dancing!
new wineskins
new moves
new steps
new

not imagined
nor dreamed
nor aspired
but
written in
Holy Writ
"songs of joy for mourning"
"dance"
"praise"
"hope"

Your word or mine?
Your voice or all these other voices?

Jesus
set his face toward Jerusalem
for mission..perhaps (they can arrest him elsewhere couldn't they?)
but for worship - certainly - for the Great Passover is coming!

Where in the buffeting winds of demands
dark forecasts
possibilities
do I set my face? and feel the Wind?

"...carried by Grace, held in Your perfect peace.."

and Your solutions to daily needs
large challenges
fantastic Living
comes...

always has been
always will be
always must
You.

Come 2012, I am not alone.

2012 half day quiet

After getting some affirmation, i am going to facilitate Half-Day Quiets from 2012.
Yes, each month, i will welcome up to 4 persons to join me as i take us deeper and closer to Jesus.
To join me, you need to sign up and send along a small fee (i need to prep).

Each half-day Quiet will have these components:
- gathering and focus
- personal quiet
- re-gathering and sharing
- sharing around light lunch

Some months we will hold it in the newly re-landscaped Bishan Park (which is where I live)...coz the weather is real nice and cool.

Check back again for more details...and drop me an email at jenni.yt.hohuhan@gmail.com
if you are interested to come to one.

Thanks
