out of the box

okay, another mind fight, a lot of thoughts, so complex, I was so confused so I couldn't think clearly.
I hate it when it comes to a day when I'm not productive, even I do nothing except facebook or tweetering about something useless.

I'm facing a problem, a problem that I always think for half of my university life.
I was so afraid to that point that I have to be brave to act and get out from it.
I have a big great enormous wall in front of me and I was challenged to go to the other side
now, the option is whether I stop thinking about it and surrender or I'm not thinking about the wall but thinking about another way to be there

That's what I was thinking, I surrendered and let it be, I'm thinking about how big and tall the wall is
It's so usual that I cannot fight my own problem and lost from it
but today I was thinking that I cannot be like this anymore
but still, what should I do
I want to ask for advices from someone, but each person that I ask was so busy and even there were who didn't even respond
but I think that's the way of Him
He didn't let me really rely on human

I was praying, at the beggining I was praying about how big the problem was and how I couldn't handle it.
I was praying so that the wall can be destroyed or moved, but I was wrong
God said to me at that time for me to pray about myself
I have to be strong so that I can beat the big wall
I was thinking out of the box at that time
I couldn't think well at that time because I was in the problem so that I couldn't observe well
so I took step back out of the box and see what could I do

1 Corrinthians 10: 13
No temptation has overtaken you that is unusual for human beings. But God is faithful, and he will not allow you to be tempted beyond your strength. Instead, along with the temptation he will also provide a way out, so that you may be able to endure it.

Once again, God let me be alone so that I could be stronger, rely on Him
He wanted me to be maximize, not to pity myself and wasting time
Now I walk on the line again, knowing that God will always help me through my hardships.

Romans 8:28
And we know that for those who love God, that is, for those who are called according to his purpose, all things are working together for good.

future! part II

I've been thinking about my future these days
It's like I've prepared all the things for the next 3 years
but... it's seems okay to me.... too okay, not great or wonderful

these couple days I got something
I've been thinking about me me and me only
about my future and about what I gotta do
but is that all?

what is my purpose then?
what am I if I have done all the plan
and the worst thing, what if I didn't get what I've been planning?
TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT

so, what have I been missing these days?
well, I've lost the God factor here
even I've been praying all night for my future to God
but, it is not right
even if I pray, I pray for myself
for my success, for my well education, for my achievement
but not for HIM

I really don't want to be disappointed if I don't get what I want
I realized that whatever I do, whatever my future will be, I surrender to him
I just give him my proposal about my future and let him correct if it's not according to His plan
I want to live the best for Him, want to be maximum but still in His path.

Romans 14:8
If we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.

future!

I really love these weeks
I learned about faith, about how we have to be more faithful in our way to be more mature
and now here I am talking about my future

Well, I'm not coming from a really rich family, who can pay their child wherever they want to study
So I have to think more than them
I have a big dream, a really big dream, somehow me in the past thought that it was impossible to reach that dream
all the place that I would want to go, I thought it was all nonsense

BUT!
I was thinking about how could I reach that if myself don't believe that I will reach that
How can God give to me His blessing if I don't believe that He can give everything
Since that time, I started planning for my future, where I would study and where would I work and start my career
I was praying for my future, how I see impossibilities as something that I really believe it will be possible
I start finding information about all of that and I found many things that surprisingly might help to gain all that

Yes, that's it
you have to believe, you have to be faithful, and lastly you have to act like you will get that, and God will open the doors for you

stucked

My name is W and I stucked
I felt useless
I've been rejected all my life
I've never had so many friends
My parents hate me, they don't care about me
Now I'm here alone

My name is X and I stucked
I felt so empty
I've been partying all night but what's left for me is nothing
I hate my parents, they had never been there for me
Now I'm here in the crowd but I felt so alone

My name is Y and I stucked
I just broke up with my boyfriend
I felt so insecure
I missed his protection, his warm hands, his love towards me
but now it's all gone
Now I'm here and I think I need a new one

My name is Z and I stucked
I 've failed so many times in my life
I'm afraid to go forward even only a step
I'm a failure and I can't be success
Now I'm here and my life is over

And other story about people who stucked in their past
I, also ever felt the same way as them
felt so lost, so empty, nothing can save me at that time
you're focusing in your own life, you pity yourself
You want other too see your life as the way it is, so that they can pity on you
but what you get from that? nothing!
You are stucked and you don't want to go from it
Well, it's your problem, but for me, I want to be free from that

"Lord has come and touched my life
What am I without You here
cause You are the one
My only hope
let Your favor shine on me

Restore me to life again
restore me to even greater honour
for everything has come from You
restore my life again"

Well, I don't need people to get pity on me
The only words I care come from Him
whatever people talk about me
whatever people judge me
once again I said, " I don't care"

Whatever your past
What pain and bad memories that you have had
bring it to Him
He was there on the cross just to heal you
now it's your time to open you heart and let He recover

Take your time in solitude
hear what He wants you to be
and Step forward!

PRIDE

PRIDE is self-centered
PRIDE is arrogance
PRIDE is vanity
PRIDE is The mother of all sins


I hate pride actually, but it's in me
So, can I hate myself because of it?
I remembered telling some of my friends about how self-centered I am, but I can't actually define it. How self-centered I am, but today's sermon defined it for me. It's PRIDE.

It's not about me being proud of my country, my school, but I'm proud of myself. Sometimes people asked, what's the problem of being proud? It's not bad for being proud of yourself, but we exaggerate it. Like somehow it's because of us we gain all the things that we got and we have.

Well, pride is actually the feeling inside of us that thinks that we are the best, never want to accept other to be better than us. It's hard sometimes to be humble, to accept other to be looked better than us, but that's what God wants in our life, we are weak, we are nothing, we are less, so that He can be more. All the things that we have today, it's all because his humility so what can we proud of now?

Now look at yourself, see anything that you have till today and see how God had given you such things so that you will be humble more and more =]
