Goodbye PASB, Hello Hurricane

Yeah, Switchfoot is releasing a new (hotly-anticipated) album 'Hello Hurricane' in November. They've been performing some of the new songs in their tours. And in the many short video clips that they uploaded, they always say Goodbye to the town they were in, and Hello to Hurricane, their next destination eg. "Goodbye Texas, Hello Hurricane".

I'm writing this while preparing for late night trainings for tonight and tomorrow as this is my last week at work in my current job. For some things in life, you've to be brave enough to be put an end to them.

"What's next?" some asked me. I don't know how to answer them. Here in this blog, all I can say for now is that a great storm is up ahead.

This year is probably the most stormy one for me in recent years. I even help planned a "Storm Surfers" Retreat for the Young Adults. But everything I've gone through this year is just a foretaste of what's coming, I believe.

So what's next? Few months back, an elder prophesied over me, and I counted ten parts (ten images) to it. In one of them, he saw me riding a speedboat accelerating straight into a raging storm. That is just one of the many parts...

I'll just leave here with the Switchfoot's upcoming new song (which I've listened and I'm loving it already!) which pretty much summed up my year so far.


I've been watching the skies
They've been turning blood red
Not a doubt in my mind
There's a storm up ahead

Hello Hurricane
You're not enough
Hello Hurricane
You can't silence my love
I've got doors and windows boarded up
All your dead end fury is not enough
You can't silence my love

Everything I have I count as loss
Everything I have is stripped away
But before it started building
I counted up these costs
Ain't nothing left for you to take away

Hello Hurricane
You're not enough...


Goodbye PASB, Hello Hurricane! :)
