Greater Than Life

When I am afraid, I put my trust in You.
Psalm 56:3










Ok so.
The roller coaster ride game is still going strong.
(Meaning I'm still alive and well in this journey with God. So. Yeah wkwk)


Last week, around this time of day.
I was in the office, working. Just another normal day.
When out of nowhere, I had this uneasy feeling which urged me to 'recharged'.
When this kind of thing happens, I usually go for the Podcasts, or simply plugging myself to songs, or scrolling through some articles.
So I've decided to read through my daily devotion.And what I've read gripped my heart and took hold of my full attention that God was about to reveal His heart out.
And yes.
Wow.


I spared you the detail for some other day when I can fully SHOUT IT OUT FROM THE ROOFTOP.
But yes. He has just made a promise. Again.
Not just a promise.
It's an assurance I never thought I needed.
That what He has begun will be made to pass.


It was so.. out of nowhere. So unpredictable.
So heart-wrenching (in a good way wkwk) I would never forget how I gotta pretend of having a sudden flu attack wkwkwkwkwk.


One day. One day I will tell you the greatness of His work.
One day.


But if you ask me where I am right now while in the waiting..


I'd say that I'm in the sea full of doubt.
Because God's promise is always beyond what these human minds can conceive.
I once told R..
"I may have doubt for many things..
But I won't ever doubt God."


So yeah.
The only thing that keep me for drowning (sea of doubt, remember?) is His loving hands that carry me through the deepest water.
So while in the waiting.. I will tell my soul to be still, knowing that God is still that same all-powerful, all-sovereign God.
The struggle is real, people. The struggle is real. Hahah.
But His daily provision of strength, joy, and hope is even more real.


So while in the waiting, I will fix my eyes over and over again, to the One that holds His promise.
I have decided to lay down what I once held so dear so that I could hold on to Him.
Just Him.


4 “You’re blessed when you feel you’ve lost what is most dear to you. Only then can you be embraced by the One most dear to you. 
Mathew 5 MSG






Thank you for the Love, Father.
Your love is greater than life.

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 ...

Thirty Three Is The New Three

“God’s reward growth with pruning. More growth.” I stumbled across a worship moment on YouTube and the word spoken by Michael Miller breathe fresh air into my soul. “Pruning seasons are strange. You get disoriented. You think, “What did I do wrong?” Nothing. My shears are the reward of fruitfulness. You’re being positioned for greater fruitfulness.” Sometimes I forgot that the One who wants to see all of His promises fulfilled in my life more than myself is the Promiser Himself. And in the in-between seasons, He’s still the sweetest reward. A few days ago I woke up with a DM on my Instagram. A friend stumbled across my profile, clicked on my blog and she told me she started crying because God revealed many heart issues she’s not even aware of. I am in awe of what God’s doing behind the scene. The last post was, so far, the hardest writing in my life. I wrote it down while it’s still fresh in my heart, the disappointment, the struggle, the embrace. But today, I wrote from a totally diff...

Season of Love

Yellow! Long time no write :P So.. My favorite month just over :(:( Nevermind. Because the best MONTH of the year is coming in another 29 days! Woohoooo! They say December is the season of love. But I'll say.. Well. Maybe I just tell you a story of 2 different people. WARNING . Stories might contain some fiction or non fiction, even a bit of mixed curcol. Okeh. Cerita pertama is about this guy. Udah bertaun-taun dia menjomblo. Mencari tulang rusuk yang rasanya ga ketemu2. Beberapa usaha pedekate sudah dilancarkan ke beberapa sasaran di waktu yang mungkin bersamaan, mungkin pula berbeda. Tapi entah kenapa. It seems smua ikan di laut itu udah nempel di pancingan penjala2 ikan mereka. Mungkin dia butuh lebih daripada sekedar pancing. Mungkin dia butuh jala. Or granat. At least beberapa ikan will come out alive. Even if terumbu2 karang jd korban. Oh well. It seems there's no hope. Jadi dia memutuskan untuk berhenti. Menyerah. Sto...
