Love Like That

Yeah! Finally, some me-time! ;)
Change bed-sheet? Checked.
Doing weekly laundry? Checked.
YouTube + earpiece? Checked.
Room mate asleep? Checked. LOLS.

So many things happened this week.
So many words cramped inside this so little space called brain.
So here goes:
Things revealed. Money lost. Shock. Sick. Feverish. MC. Business taken care. Money found. Miraculously money never lost. Healed. Back to work. Another miracle: 4 accounts closed in 1 day. Awesome FA. Revelations over revelations. Another revelation *smirksmirk* Food tasting. Another soon-to-be-TheRoyal's-colleague. Another meeting. 1st offering sermon EVER. Nervous like.. so nervous. DONE! New friend introduced. Another awesome fellowship.
Yep. I guess that's all :)

Well, later I'll let you know the detail.
Let's just say that I was reminded how it is to live under grace and favor of God.
Once you're in, you'd never know how it would be like to be out of it.
Like trying to breath when you know you're in outer space. Simply no oxygen.

Anyway, today sermon in YRC was about something that I was contemplating on for quite some times.
About putting your hope in others.
And the following disappointment that leads to less and lesser hopes in the end.
About loving something or someone until you put it/him/her first over God.

Yes.
Okay.
I honestly say I'm thinking about it because this was what I've been doing the whole time.
Well.... *shyshy*

See.
All my life I know that I need to put God first and foremost above anything and anyone.
But I'd like to come clean that all this time, all I do is the exact opposite.
Well, I keep saying and I think I actually believe that I have put Him first.
The thing is, I could stay up all night just to wait for a single chat *past-tense-here, okay*
but at the same time, my morning devotion was always done in a rush.
You see here.
I could love people soooosooomuch. Toooo much. LOL.
That I would wait the whole night even when I was sleepy and tired just to hear a simple 'hello'.
But to greet my Father, I should drag myself and done it out of habit and obligation.

Okay.. That's just a simple example.

I am thankful and grateful that I've been made to choose.
As I mentioned in my previous entry here that you can not serve 2 masters.
Either you love Him entirely. Or you don't.
And I choose to solely love Him and to put Jesus first no matter might happen.


Yes, it's true that when I say : let Your will be done in my life, He did it.
He does it.
I cry, I bled (inside lah not outside), I'm doing things that I never thought I could do.
I feel things that I never thought I could feel.
And He works wonders.

And yes, whenever I remember, I'll be praying for you.
And I know that no pray goes unheard, simply because Jesus loves us too much :)

Watch what God does, and then you do it, like children who learn proper behavior from their parents.
Mostly what God does is love you.
Keep company with Him and learn a life of love.
Observe how Christ love us.
His love was not cautious but extravagant.
He didn't love in order to get something from us but to give everything of Himself to us.
Love like that.
(Ephesians 5:1-2 MSG)

Great things are happening. More to come.
And while waiting on it, I just wanna learn to love unselfishly.
Love like that.

When God Made a Promise

“I know this is too fast. And please don’t ask me why, because I don’t have the answer. I don’t know why.” “I won’t ask you why. Because I know.. It’s God.”   Wkwkwkwkwwkwkwkwkww duh supershy padahal biasanya ga tau malu. I’m still getting used to this. But those who viewed our IG feed and saw the pic posted in FB would know what this is all about. The Promise of God. It’s been there, mentioned the wholeee time in my earlier posts, yet unnamed. I’ll try to recall the whole story. Some details would be lost in translation because there are wayyyy TOO MANY. Haha. Fyi. I’VE BEEN WAITING SOOO LOOOONG TO SHOUT THIS OUT LOUD. So, here goes. Last Sunday, R asked me out to dinner. A few days before, he’s mentioned this fancy place and I calmly (I think) said, “Yes, yes why not” while inside I was [insert screaming emoji here] knowing that this is not a normal dining experience. OMG. I was so glad it’s through a text message, otherwise he would see me SCREAM

The Boy Who Showed Me My WHY

So last week, the entire school left Redding for ministry trip around the States. I went to Phoenix for 8 days and came home to school with tons of testimonies of healing, people set free, delivered, and experiencing the love of the Father in the most tangible way. But here’s my personal take on the trip to Phoenix, AZ. I met a boy and this divine appointment marked my life forever. I told God (and my team mates), if the reason of my entire trip, all the whirlwind of fund raising and preparations, was just for this one moment with this boy, I would do it all over again.  So on an evening, I was told that I would go to minister to kids in a home church the next day. (On prerequisite of being in the trip with Bethel people is a heart that is always ready with a smiley YES to whatever comes next. HAHAH. So many last minute change, you could be blindsided by the suddenness of if. Or you can take it as an invitation to lean on the Holy Spirit leading. It’s nerve-wrecking for a bit, but once

I Belong to The Youth

SO! I don't know where to start. But I certainly could say that THIS is not the end. God is not done yet. In fact, earlier today I was discussing things with Ijah and we both agreed on something : we are on an accelerated roller coaster ride. Faster than ever! Higher than we ever been before! There are milestones in life. Like moments when you graduated uni, or when your PR is approved. When you moved overseas or going back for good. Moments that marked a change in the season of life. But there are other kinds of moments : intangible, but leaving marks so deep your brain might let go but your soul never will. And last week was THAT kind of moments. A series of events that, combined together, was just.. Well. I couldn't find A WORD to describe it best. But I would try my best to re-tell the story. Here goes. (Beware. It's gonna be long) I was considering a one day leave, a half-day plus another half-day, or simply a 2 days leave to attend Empowered21. If you'
