15th parish visit in Canberra

Continuing my pilgrimage 
It’s my 15th parish visit at Canberra! 
I started it out just because of a passing thought
I didn’t expect I could visit 15 parishes in Canberra up to this date
And it’s not merely a visit, I did join in a mass or an event in every church I visited
It’s like when it’s for the glory of God, everything unfolds!

"He IS always there for me"

Went to the Holy Spirit Church and inspired by the Holy Spirit [Church in Amaroo checked! 😛]
It is the First Eucharist Mass for kids! 
How lovely they are! Hope they could keep the faith to wherever they are

Continuing the conversation from yesterday evening
We went to church together, talking about consolation and desolation
"If desolation is the absence of God, 
I don’t think I have ever experienced desolation
I have times of anger and times of difficulty, 
but I have never experienced the absence of God. 
He is always there for me.”

It doesn’t matter what you do to find God, He is already here now.
It is not about the future, it is now.

How did you know it's a "yes" from God?

[Scenario: We were driving in a car and having casual chats about life in Australia.]

[Premise: Talking about decision-making]

How did you know it's a “Yes” from God?
“I won’t give you the direct answer. It’s like when you know someone very well, you know what they are going to do or plans without them even saying it. 
The spirit knows it. 
The spirit is actually stronger than the flesh.
You will know whether it’s from God or not if you know Him well enough.
This is my indirect answer to that.”

My eyes are wide open. 
How strong could the faith be to have such spiritual answer when one’s driving!

Let God be God

Morning pilgrimage @ St Brigid’s

A time for silence is ardently needed
There’s still so many inadequacies in me
I felt I couldn’t contain that anymore
I felt burdened 
And it comes to mind again - “Acknowledge” my limitations 
do the best according to my capability 
and let God be God



I’m also confused,
“Patience” is still the class I’m in

Thank you Father!

Happy Australian Father’s Day!

[No words could convey how grateful I am right now]
Lying on bed
Looking at the ceiling “I’m spoiled”

A day’s retreat at St Clement’s Retreat House
What a luxurious retreat!
Not only I’m perfectly well-fed 
But also the greens, the sheeps (I have never seen so many sheeps in one area in my life!), the dog, the sky, the starry night and the galaxies made me so blissful!
I’m really a spoiled kid of God


Yes, I’m no perfect and I have so much flaws
But super thanks to God for spoiling this child and giving the room and freedom for her to find her way
I might have a clearer picture of who this little girl is
Or perhaps, the flexibility for her to change and search for whatsoever passion(s) that may come up 
No doubt, it’s for the work of God


Tying back to the retreat’s theme, everything is driven by the Holy Spirit 
Looking forward to experiencing how the Spirit would further engineer me towards the Father and the Son
