The Rock

Yelllowww peeps!

Been meaning to blog but, well, lots of things.

TLG Movie :) And then BBC (Bible Camp, fyi).


Actually I really really wanted to write every single detail of every experiences here.
Tapi udah malem... and besok masih Jumat (yay TGIF yayayay!)

Anyway, just wanna share something that I've strongly felt need to be documented hitam di atas putih. Halah.

To cut the story short, my sister's received something we never even expected to nor praying for one :
Bahasa Roh. Yep. Speak in tongue.
Dan dia baru bilang malem2 pas kita udah di rumah balik abis BBC, when she actually have a whole day and night before to tell me WHY ONLY TELL ok la.
I'm just super happy super excited super super.. I don't know.
Just rendered speechless by how He does things beyond expectations.

So she told me her stories.
How on the second night where the presence of Holy Spirit throw us off balance and turned our soul inside out, she barely able to stand, so she kneeled down and cry.
That's where it started.

Ok lah ceritanya panjang sih.
Rada lama juga ceritanya, karena smbl beres2 koper plus nangis2an. Well.

Intinya, she came to a point and told me this :

Kak, I know that you've been praying for me. And mom and dad.
I know you've been worried that we don't get to grow in faith (internal story about the church their attending, anyway..)
I know that you are worried for me because I'm yet to find a community where I can grow, one like yours (TLG!!).
Yes, somehow I know when you asked me how's KK (Kelompok Kecil di UI si Febe), you're actually worried right?
But see kak, when you turned your worried into prayer, see, how in His time, He answers your prayer, Kak.
I got to meet Him face to face and to experience His goodness, His GRACE.
I got to understand FIRST hand, what you've been telling us all this time, what happened when He touched your heart.
You see, your prayer is not.. useless.


Nah sekarang giliran gw yg nangis2 hahahah.

Gimana sih. How to describe to you ya.
Kaya..
HE LISTENS.
HE CARES.
And this small prayer of a sinner that was actually unworthy of His love, has made a difference to my sister's life.
HE IS ABLE and HE WANTS to answer our prayers!

Buat yg baca post gw sebelomnya, this is another assurance that in His time, the same thing will happen to my friend as well.
And that it is my privilege to pray for him.
Because to take part in someone's life-changing experience is a privilege, isn't it?
Especially if they are someone dear to you :)

The thing about putting our hope in God is, you know that He never fails.
He never disappoints.
His love lasts a lifetime.


He is the Rock, his works are perfect,

    and all his ways are just.
A faithful God who does no wrong,
    upright and just is he.

Deuteronomy 32:4(NIV)

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...

I Used to be Love Drunk

Nahh.. I'm not gonna bragging about love drunk or such. That's the song I'm listening while studying now. LOL. I'm such a multitasker. Ever heard a quotation about love that inspired you so much you can be a poet over night? I think it's true. I've been there. Trust me, I know. When the love I felt was so, so, so overwhelming almost physically. Yes, I think love's one hell of emotion that can make human do brave, crazy, stupid stuff. Love is good. Indeed. But love also destructive. (See Helen of Troy. Stupid Paris, what was he thinking?? Lust maybe. Not love. Whatever. I wasn't there) Anyhow, after some deep thinking, I can also add one more strong emotion that motivate human to do braver, crazier, stupid-er stuff than love do. It is hurt, i think. A bruise on your heart. That can be healed over time, or not. At least, that was the thing that inspired me more than falling head over heels in love. See the evidence below. so what. if u can put your finger ...
