《THE WAY OF FAITH》CH.68-New Year
Advertisement
"Tianyun, here, bE9+, what is this?"She asked, pointing to the last chord of a section of a song by the Joshua Band - Worship Forever.
"This is a bit complicated... It doesn't matter if you play the augmented triad of E flat first. The original fifth note is B flat, isn't it?You change it to B and restore it."Chen Tianyun came back from Fu Xiangqin.
Since the last time she offered a song, her father, the pastor of this church, once again invited the Arise Youth Worship Band to take the stage, tentatively scheduled for mid-September.
Although Yu Ruoling is not clear yet, she heard that the deacons are discussing whether the band can attend the "Christmas Love Carnival" that will be held in the leisure park opposite Kaohsiung International Airport on the Sunday afternoon before Christmas at the end of December.
If the final proposal is passed, Chen Tianyun intends to release three new songs that they have never practiced. The three pianists would take turns to take the positions of the main piano, keyboard, and vice singer.
Yinke and Xiangqin are absolutely fine. Chen thought, they have stayed in the church for a long time, and even if they are not very skilled, they already understand the meaning of worship. The only problem is Ruoling's playing style. Of course, she believes that Yu Ruoling knows what the purpose of the worship band is, but the sound of the piano sounds so depressing for no reason.
It seems that she can't let go of her heart before God, or she seems to be persecuting something.
But Chen Tianyun, the consultant of Arise Band, has no idea where the crux of the problem lies.
Answering Yu Ruoling's doubts, she took advantage of the time when the group members re-practiced the song process, stepped off the podium and thought carefully about how to make Yu, who the piano skills in the band count as top, and go further in "emotional expression".
However, apart from forcing her to attend the Saturday's fellowship, Chen Tianyun didn't have any other ideas. She is better able to understand the reason for not wanting to take part in steadily than Yu Ruoling, perhaps it is not because Yu doesn't know herself well enough, but because she knows herself too deeply and makes a mess.
The authorities are obsessed, the bystanders are clear, even Yuan Junfan, a person who can't think about turning around, has discovered the problem, and has even consulted with her many times in private about the vague evil spirit emanating from Yu Ruoling.

If it weren't for God's backing, Chen's afraid that all the evil feelings from Yu would have become reality. But it's a very strange thing to point out Yu Ruoling only, as if it is specially to supervise prisoners. Chen Tianyun sat cross-legged and listened to the group members' closing meeting, and finally came to an extremely perfect conclusion.
Then let the Arise Band do a cover-up and involve them together.
So, eight innocent normal party persons accompanied the only person who was not innocent, and endured a full 10-minute "Introduction to the Importance of the Fellowship".
Yu Ruoling had a blank face, feeling a little disbelieved in her heart, thinking, plaese, sister, when did the group rules have a rule that "attend at least two youth group gatherings a month"?She stared dazedly at the A4 sheet of paper that obviously added the new regiment regulations, and suddenly felt that she was really forced to join the army.
But she went all over the world to find a team that made her want to stay, and here is almost a team that she thinks has a sense of companionship. Even though she is not qualified to be their companion, she is very happy to be able to stay here with the cheek, and music is the one of her only two most professional way for her to worship God.
She wants to give the best to God. If even this advantage is taken away and she cannot make further progress, how can she dare to play the piano in front of everyone, and how can she dare to say to God that "I am Your pianist"?
So sister Tianyun..., are you really not going to thinking about it?Yu thought again.
Since Yu Ruoling attended healing conference with Prophet Mark was over, although she was finally able to contact people of the same age she didn't know in a normal way - only one-on-one - but it didn't mean that she was free from obstacles.
Especially in terms of communication, she knows that she subconsciously wants to avoid a stable friendship. The strange thing is that this feeling only shows up in the youth group of the church. Maybe it's not that she's afraid to make friends..., but she's afraid of true trust. Even ordinary pets are being so coquettish or reassuring a man, the man will feel impossible and stunned, 'cause he's lived too long in lies and deceit and solitude.

She guessed she was one of those people. For the first time, this group had a great impact on the interpersonal relationship template she had been experiencing all along, and instead made her shrink back indirectly from fellowship.
In contrast, the interpersonal model that is dispensable in the outside world and can turn around at any time has won her trust even more. Not because society is right. It was because the social circle she first came into contact with was distorted like this.
Naturally, she followed the road to extremes, knowing that she longed for something faithful to rely on in her heart, but she was contradictory and resisted.
If she followed the instructions of the Holy Spirit and walked into the Youth Fellowship, what kind of impact would this fierce conflict have on her?
Suddenly, she remembered what Fong Xuan said about the white mist that was being bound by the chains, still floating and sinking in the mind-world created by herself. She no longer uses mind and shared area to separate her and Fong Xuan's territories, after all, she understands that these are all born by her, so they simply call it mind-world.
So, if she listens to the Holy Spirit...what does that do to the fogballs?
Yu Ruoling didn't know how she could combine these two irrelevant things together, it was just a feeling.
A feeling of being suddenly illuminated.
If prime-p can't even solve or accommodate the uninvited guest who appears inexplicably, then it's better not to have this main personality basically.

July 2016, Jewish New Year in Israel. This ancient calendar began when Moses led the Hebrews who had been enslaved for more than 400 years out of Egypt in the Old Testament.
On Mount Sinai, he received the Ten Commandments and other commandments from the Lord of Armies, Jehovah God, and built the Tabernacle, all received together. Counting from that time, it has been more than five thousand years.
Unlike other calendars in the world, the Jewish calendar does not really start until halfway through a AD single year.
The rabbis usually cover their heads with long scarves in the synagogue, and there are seven lampstands placed on the podium.
At the beginning of the new year, the priests in charge of blowing the trumpet will use different methods and the sound of the horn to announce the coming of the new year throughout Israel. In the English translation, this day is called the "Festival of Trumpets"(Yom Teruah), and there are activities such as Yom Kippur, Holy Sabbath, and sacrifices within seven days.
Yu Ruoling never thought that she would have the opportunity to participate the Jewish New Year in East Asia simultaneously in her life. On Saturday night, which happened to be the last night of the Jewish calendar, she stepped down from the pianist seat. An American missionary stationed in Taiwan, Gabrielle, stepped onto the podium holding an antelope horn that was almost as tall as Yu.
With great effort, she blew out the clear horn sound enough to resound through the sky from the wide pipe.
"The New Year's coming, God's day!"Gabrielle said, "Let's pray."
Gabrielle, wearing a long scarf over her shoulders, translated the Lord's Prayer into English as the beginning of the feast. Yu Ruoling looked at the bread, apples, honey, and grape juice on the table, and suddenly didn't know how to match them.
She thinks that she "studented" under Yu Hong Axiu's culinary skills, and she probably got forever the skill of cooking hodgepodge by the way. But who knew that in the face of different cultures and even across half a continent?
…Well, does she need to dip the apples in honey and put them in the bread or eat them separately…?This is a very important question. If she accidentally eat something in wrong way, it will feel like receiving a red envelope in the middle of July in Taiwan...
She doesn't mean what's really going to happen, just pure respect for not wanting to offend.
"Should I get them...together?"So she turned to Gabrielle for help. Oh dude, now she just realizes that no one knows how to eat.
"Oh, "Gabrielle smiled kindly, "just take it easy."
All right then, she received the reply, and after saying a very casual "Ah ha" to Gabrielle, she turned head and repeated the custom to the tablemate(or friends?).
In the end, just eat whatever you want.
(= ̄ω ̄=)
Yu Ruoling didn't pay attention, and stuck honey on Shao Xu'an's face.
