..Yielding my Right..


Two days ago, i went to starbucks after the Sunday Service. I needed to work and write or do anything which using my notebook. But, guess what i found!!!  At first, the windows said that unable connect to any wireless connection. I asked the barista, why did it happen?! Then i tried to restart my notebook for 2 - 3 times, then i checked the set up, log in safe mode, but i couldn't find any strange things... so.. i tried to restart again.. and something happened with the rebooting... whheewww... really didn't like this... it asked to reboot even i tried to use windows normally, safe mode, safe mode in networking, safe mode in command prompt...


I tried to call my cell mate, then sms my cell leader... but on that time, i couldn't reach them, though could speak with my cell mate for a while... Then, i called Joy ( a brother in Surabaya )... told him about the problem, and he told many possibilities about my notebook. The shortcut i could think was to bring my notebook to service center, but Joy told me to ask friends who could repair it first... because service center is very expensive.
At night, i called my cell leader, and he wanted to help me.. to check the notebook and doing something that he could...

I still don't know why does it happen?
But, one thing i know... God wants me to learn something...
Actually, the notebook is my beloved one... because i didn't buy it easily... 
Maybe... He wants me to offer it to Him... it's belong to Him...not me... I've loved it more than everything, maybe... beside that, I have to spend my time more with Him.. not with my job.. my hobbies..
little bit of pain i feel these days... but... i must face it... 


I almost forgot to give Him thanks... fortunately, someone reminded me to do it... 
Give Thanks to the Lord...
Dar Gracias a Dios... maybe easy when our feelings are good...
Dar Gracias a Dios... not easy for us to say it when facing the bad things...
But...
When we could say it to God... He would be glad and proud...
Because we offer the best offering... thanksgiving sacrifice... just for Him... ^^


Now.. i'm still waiting for the repairing... Lord, i give up to You... i know You could do a miracle for me... Thanks for teaching me to yield my right about my notebook...
Thanks for teaching me about it, after my hand phone for a few times...
I just wanna say...that... all that i have are Yours, Pa...
I offer all to Your Hand... ^^

..still HE answers my prayer..

This is a story after my trip to Medan. I forget the exact time when I was called by my friend in Education Dept. He sent me an IM (Instant Message) at Yahoo Messanger.... asked my availability of time to ministry in ESC. He asked me to join in the team of ESC Pelajar as an Instructor... I was amazed, because since last year I wanted to join that Team, I didn't tell anyone except Yenny... but it's very suddenly thing... and I had to be an Instructor... Long time not in that function... hehehe...

Then I answered him, I said that I wanted to join, but I had to have a coordination with my leaders and friends... After took a moment, I gave him answer... and the answer was YES!!!
My boss just said that I had to manage my jobs, Finance Spv. said it, too... and I had to change my schedule of office hours on Sunday with the other.

--amazed mode on--

It's looked easy to pass.. I was very amazed of that moment... How Come?? I didn't find the answer, why... but I just enjoyed it... Oh yes.. I felt that God always guides my ways since my obedience a few months ago... and at the end of May...when I attended a prophetic conference, God said that I had to forget all of my past...set my eyes looking forward to the future...He'd draw me near and flying with Him... from victory to victory...
I kept it in my heart and my notes... I was crying when He said it... felt refreshed...encouraged...

These days... I could see the beautiful of His promises in my life... answering my prayer, open the closed doors... and my sensitivity of His Voice being added...
A few weeks ago.. when I was going to cell meeting, suddenly a wisdom came to my mind, said to me to ask my friend via SMS.. then when on my way, a reply came and said to me that there wasn't cell meeting on that day, it would took on weekend, Saturday night...
I thanked God for it, because I was still on my way and I could go home earlier....
My cell mate sent a SMS again and said to me, "Sis.. how God so loves you... so He tells you to SMS me and makes you not being astrayed..."

Again... for along the way to my home... I was amazed by His Love... Great Love...
Maybe, it's just a little and simply thing... but I could see that was a Great Thing... Everyday is a Great Thing that He's given for us to pass.. Believe that His guidance is with us, too... He never leaves us alone on our ways... always with us... BUT... the question is... Do we always Realize of His Presence??

I keep learning about it... depend on His Wisdom, Strength, wherever I go... when ESC, it's like a first time for me... I learned from the basic, not laying on my past experiences... because every moment has a new and specific experience which He wants to give us to learn...

with some of my team

I could learn new things and train some of my team, because they're still new comers... it's their first time being part of ESC Team.

Lovely moments...couldn't be forgotten...
Lovely moments...where I learned to be humble more...
Led by the peoples whom I led before...

Obedience gives Great Effects
Obedience brings us to the success
Enjoy all the journeys of our lives
We'll see the beauty of HIM from moment to moment



see you on my next journeys with HIM

-- My New Trip is a Miracle one -- part 2 --

This Trip's very wonderful, i think... and after a few months i don't work together with my friend whom i went together to Medan. I learned to see and just follow what would be. I didn't want to be too Dominant in this training. Arrived in Polonia - Medan, 3 peoples picked us up... they were k' Enda, her brother and Fistra. Then we went to the office church.. where we would stay for a few days...
After put all our stuffs... we continued going to survey the place where the TFT would take place. It's not in Medan... maybe it's like Bogor if in Java Island...
It's beautiful place, i think... i could find green colors everywhere... ^^


After took survey, we ate together at Tesalonika Resto which had specialty in cooking BPK (Babi Panggang Karo). Honestly, i didn't want to eat it at first... but Fistra said that i had to try it... Finally, i ate it.. just a little bit... but i like the beverage... Martabe Juice (Markisa Terong Belanda Juice)... it's fresh juice.. hehehehe...  Feeling weird for along the trip with the food... i wasn't too excited to eat... it's very different if i went to Surabaya... hehehe...

Ayam Cipera (Cipera Chicken-a Batak Karo food)


Sayur Daun Singkong, Ikan Arsik, Ampela
(Batak Karo Food)

I ate all food above when going to TFT, June 12th... I pushed myself to eat them... hehehehe... though i wasn't excited to eat it... but I didn't show it up to k' Enda and a worker who host us. At TFT, i tried to eat all the food which given. Fighting... Fighting... !!!! hahahaha...

For along the TFT, i enjoyed and taugt them as maximize i could... Always asking God what He wanted to do for the Team. At night, the flow was changed... final simulation at night wasn't played... something guided me to ask them to worship and asking God to refresh them, too. After worship, i asked them, one by one to share what they got... and i hadn't ever imagined... they were so opened... hehehehe... ^^

together with the team

June 13th, final simulation... then after took a shower, we worshipped together, praying, and it's so great moment. After all the flows of TFT finished, we went to survey the place for Camp... then going to Panatapan... it's like Puncak in West Java... lovely view... loved it very much... hehehe...

peace mode on

free style

My friend went back to Jakarta on June 14th, but i had extend 1 day in Medan... going around with Fistra and her motorcycle... Actually, i wanted go to Toba Lake, but it couldn't be done... too short time...

capcay, fried gurame, martabe juice
--lunch menu--


mixed ice at Methodist School

at the shop of Bolu Meranti
--the only place of famous gift from Medan, no franchise--

I enjoyed all things about my trip to Medan... though there're a few of not good things, i still could enjoy at all... Hoping for the next one... in September 2010... i will come again... in order to ministry for the ESC... wkwkwkwk... ^^

--kwetiau kerang--
my last dinner in Medan

Waiting for the other Miracles coming to my life... Lord.. You hear what i want, even in the deepest place
of my heart...
1 thing i learn this year, He answers fastly some of my goals which focused to others.
Always like that... hahahaha...
Thanks Father... ^^

See you on the next journeys of mine with Him.
