One Day

Blogging from the top bunk of my bed.
Actually never planned to write anything but I just can't help it.

One question that keeps popping out on my mind these days :

What is it with my brain that does the exact opposite of my command?

For example, I told my brain to stop remember.
But what it does is just flooding itself with lots and lots of stuff that used to be so trivial, no emotion involved, yet now become a story that so significant it won't go away and even have a soundtrack of itself. Lol.

See, now I'm empathising some friends whom I teased from time to time to be overly 'emo' or 'clingy'. Even to the point of ridiculously 'sad'.

Well I've been judging and now I'm walking in their shoes.  Lol.

I know. I know it's part of the process.
And to be processed means going through tough times, leaving your safe place, rough patches.

I used to answer 'A Walk to Remember' when ppl ask me my favorite movie.
But then came 'One Day' and I can't help falling in love with it.
You know why?
Well. Because. Lol.
Because I can relate.
You know I'm not the kind that easily pouring my eyes out every time a heroine dies on a scene.
But I can't help it with Emma.
I even remember the scene when she stood on an alley after her miserably failing dinner with Dex.
When she cries, I cry.
Well actually I wanna hug her and say 'I feel you, Em!'

So.. Yeah. I feel you, Emma Morley.
But I'm not giving in to such sad ending.
I will just trust myself to the Great Creator Himself, to write the story of my life :)

Well. I'm starting to see how therapeutic writing is.
If I can put a soundtrack for my thoughts,  it'll be something like :
I start this posting with Paramore's The Only Exception and ending it with Hillsong Hillsong United's I Surrender.
Lol.

Thank you, Lord, for even in my darkest hours, I know that Your love keep me safe and sound.


1AM. Monday.
Must sleep.


Night awesome people.
You are blessed.

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 ...

My Miracle

So this weekend, my mom and Febe was in town. In fact, I've just sent them off a few hours ago. WOW! Wow God wow! That's all I can say.. I'm loving every second I spent with the two. Good food, good times. But above them all, good talk. The best kind of talk where God is so evident, so powerful, so ever-present, in everything that we said. Sometimes we tend to talk about God's miracle like it was so far away, so abstract, when actually it is right there in front of us. So tangible, we can grasp it with our hands. For example, when Febe mentioned about Dad and the accident and his sickness. We can see how God allowed his pride to be crushed. And out of a new-found humility, God shaped His character : more Christ, less of himself. I knew who my dad was, and I know who he is now. And all I can see is miracle written all over him. Through the worst the world can assume, God brings in His best for our good. Not to mentioned how God put a heart o...

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 ...
