The Taxi Driver

arrived in the apartment parking lot...

Taxi Driver: "Maam I am sorry did I gave you the card already?"
lady: "u havent given it to me!"
taxi driver: "did you see it under the chair?"
lady: "no" (with angry face)

the taxi driver look for the debit card and scared if he couldnt find it

lady: "did u find the card?"
taxi driver: "not yet maam...not yet"

the taxi driver still looked for it...

taxi driver: "I wont get paid if I cannot find it"
lady: "well...I need my card too!"
taxi driver: "yes maam. I am sorry"

after 10 minutes....

taxi driver: "oh I found it! I am so sorry...I am so scared if I dont get paid"

The taxi driver was scared if he couldnt find the lady's card he wont get paid and most probably the taxi's boss wouldnt let him to work anymore.
God spoke to her that the taxi driver really needed the money for his family. He needs to work really hard to find money to spend holiday with his family for Christmas.
God reminded her how blessed her life is and let she shares the blessings to others. She regretted whatever she said and acted to the taxi driver.

The last word that she said to the taxi driver "have a good night and merry Christmas...God bless you and your family"
The taxi driver: "Thank you maam. Have a wonderful Christmas too."

They wont meet each other anymore, but the lady pray so he will have wonderful time with his family for Christmas....

Learn for today...
We are so blessed, but dont forget to share it with others. Receive the blessings from God and be blessed...
We dont need to share only money, but we can also share HAPPINESS and JOY!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.....

When I do not know what to do...

Lord,

I don’t know what to do

I am confused

Feeling tension on my shoulder’s muscle

I dunno how to handle these people

Lord,

I don’t know what to do

I don’t have words to say

I even cant do anything

Lord,

What can I do is just pray

And making a song with only 2 words,

HELP ME.

I don’t know what to do

Lord,

I do believe that everything will be allright

Don’t let myself overconfident

Its all Yours

And its all in Your hands.

I do believe…

even though I donno what to do

You provide

You help

You will take care of it

Thanks Dad..

I still dunno what should I do

What to do..

Dad, please help me

I trust You

Dry Season

This past 4 months has been really challenging to me. I had been through a personally challenging time where I did not feel peace. Yesterday my heart was hurt and I could not handle it. I felt hurt and empty. I have not felt this way for a long time, but the Holy Spirit gave me a power to pray last night. I almost fall asleep, but someone woke me up and there was a whisper that said, "My daughter, lets talk!" Even when I lost my words to say, God lifted me up. Lord spoke to me clearly from Psalm 23.

God is my strength in any situation. He has healed my broken heart and spirit that I experienced this 4 months. The joy comes in the morning. I feel new and my spirit is on fire again. This afternoon, I was walking through windy, cold and rainy day from class to apartment. When I was walking, God spoke to me "Even though there is a challenging season, you will be back home safely as long you keep walking and trust Me. You will be allright."

Life as Christian is not always easy, there will be challenging and dry season. If I say, being Christian is always easy, so I dont say the truth. BUT the truth is that I can be strong as a Christian because God who gives me this strength. God has put me in the community that I really need during college age. The community that encourage me to carry His calls and community that show love to others. I am thankful that God put me in school where they dont just teach about success, academic, but also in spiritual way and this is what I really need the most. BUT, I cannot always stay in this level, there is a time where I need to move into the next level and the higher level is, the harder its gonna be. God has prepared us to go to the next level, the level where we will find exciting and new things. Keep focus on Him. He is faithful and never fails. Let God lead you to the promise land.

PS: I am feeling that someone praying for me now. I am feeling so encouraged. Whoever you are, thank you. Lord,bless whoever this person is.

Happy Tuesday :-)

God's Calling

Sometimes God wants us to do something that impossible to make it and sometimes it doesnt make any sense. I don't know about your experiences, but I had some experiences where God wanted me to do something and be honest, I said "NO!" at the first time. However, because of the power of Holy Spirit, my heart said "YES!"

Most of the time we say NO to God because our own desire, but when you say "YES" to God, you will feel supernatural feeling where you know that you make best decision in your life. Decision is a choice. You want to carry His calls and move on to better way or ignore His calls and move to "whatever" or "what I want" life.

It is really hard to say "YES!" to Him because non-sense plans. BUT, have you realized that once you follow Him, once you carry His calls, once you say YES to His commands, the Holy Spirit gives you a power and the answer "YES" means everything. One words called "YES" to God is forever and not temporary.

God has promised us into a beautiful life and promise land. On our way to promise land, we must follow His commands. In between, we do have hard times. This is the reason why FAITH is really important in our life. Dont let "dry life" come to your life. Let your spirit always on FIRE and not dry spirit.

Enjoy the journey that God has given to you. Walk with God is the best journey we have ever experienced in our life. Create our future with God and not just create future with ourselves. Follow His commands and do not give up on Him.

Lets have journey together to promise land by follow His commands and carry His calling.
When we say YES to Him, we will never regret it.

Thankful

My brain and body are very exhausted and tired right now. There are lotsa things to do that I must finish soon. I am taking 19 credits this semester and most of the classes are psychology senior classes. Sounds not fun at all, especially when you have class straight from morning to late afternoon. I must admit that I AM TIRED!

BUT! My heart is thankful and grateful! My brain and body can be tired and exhausted but my heart will never stop saying thank you to God who gives this amazing opportunity. When I am tired I always think how blessed I am for having an opportunity to have education in America and being in amazing school with bunch of great friends!

Sometimes when we are tired, we don't remember how blessed we are. Have you realized how lucky we are for having unique experience and opportunity that not many people have it?
When we are tired, we start to complain and it stop us to receive the blessings that God wants to give those to us.
We must be thankful in any situation and stop complaining. When we complain, we dont get anything and give disadvantages for ourselves.

It is hard to be thankful when we are in the situation where we dont feel comfortable, but lets we learn to be thankful not just in good situation but in ANY SITUATION.

"When we say thanks to God with all our heart, you will find your heart filling up with life and light" - Joyce Meyer from Battlefield of the Mind

"God doesn't call you to be a tired person, but He calls you to be a can do person" - Joel Osteen devotion book Your Best Life Now.

"Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, "children of God without fult in a warped and crooked generation." Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky" - Philippians 2: 14-15


Lets we learn to be thankful and be rest in God. Put God first in your life, so the Holy Spirit work in you.

God bless and happy Thursday

Focus

Have you ever experienced when you are in very hard situation where you are stuck and cannot go anywhere? 
Have you ever experienced when you dont know where to go and confused to choose between 2 ways?

We are a human and human can be wrong. Let God speak to you today. Listen to His gentle whisper and don't leave or ignore Him by our own desire. Sometimes we complain why God never give an answer and talk to us, but the truth is that He always speaks to us in many ways. We cannot listen to His gentle whisper because we think too much about our plans and we are too busy. 

Spend your little time to God. He is waiting for you. Dont ignore His gentle whisper. 
Keep your focus on God and don't let the idiots ruin your mind! Ask God for PEACE AND JOY and HE WILL GIVE IT TO YOU. It's a gift and use the gift of God properly. 

Let God remind you if you are wrong...

God bless

The Beauty of a Relationship with God

Have you ever felt that God is so far away from you?
Have you ever confused about relationship with your friends, even with your close friends?
Have you ever..... (fill your problems)
This summer holiday I have learned a lot about the real relationship with God. Have you ever felt so close with God? How do you feel? Isn't it so beautiful? Even it is more beautiful than anything

Tthe relationship with God is always solve everything. When I don't know what to do, when I dont know what to say, when I dont know how I feel, when my heart is so heavy, my heart always call my Father. Even when I dont know what to say first word to God, He knows. He knows my heart and that night He said "my daughter, lets talk" I closed my eyes and I started my deep conversation with God.
Never ignore our relationship with God :)
When you have a problem, you cannot sleep with it, dont forget that we have a Father who wait for us to talk! Have deep conversation with Him. Don't let ourselves lose because of the situation that we have! Have a deep relationship with God and experience the beauty of a relationship between God and ourselves. When we have relationship with God and trust Him fully....The problems will be solved.

I Love You

There is a girl in the corner
With tear and hurt feeling that she can't hide
She can't erase her memories from the past
She feels embarrassed and unloved

She cannot see the color of life
And cries where nobody sees
She tries to believe
But she is too weak to try

She prays that night
'God what love really means?
Could you send someone,
Someone who love me for who I am?

Then she heard a voice from deep inside her heart
And it said, 'My daughter, I love you for who you are
You are loved by your Creator and are never alone
I always be here no matter what

I love you for who you are
You are loved by your Creator and are never alone
I always be here for you
No matter what....

I will give you the love,
The love that you never knew,
The love that more than beautiful,
And the love that more than words...

by: me
I LOVE YOU...

When you are down...

My mood has been up and down this week because so many things weird things happened to me. Sometimes I feel so down, but God never stops working in my life! When I am down, He becomes stronger! He gives me strength through songs and words!

He is good all the time...yes, God is so good! He won't let His children fall!

His words and songs never get old...

..........

If you have an experience about feeling scared about the future, you are not alone! I also have the same feeling as you.
I am graduating next year with my Bachelor Art Degree with Cultural Psychology major. Most of my friends asked me already about what am I doing after graduation?
well..I know what Im gonna do after graduation. Im feeling confident about it, but at the same time this feelings called "nervous" and "scared" always on my mind. People talk about bad things about it, especially when someone that you closes with talked about how hard to be in that part of job! I know that she talked about the right thing and I do need to see the true life in business world. On the other hand, it just hard for me to accept it!
Before I became a college student, I had so many dreams that I wanted to achieve. It seemed so easy for me to reach all of them. Just like a person who still see the mountain from far away. It seemed so beautiful and easy to climb.
However, Im in Junior year right now and everything that I thought it would be easy, it's not. Im scared, Im nervous, Im confused...Can I click with the people that I work with? Can I be a leader? Am I strong enough to lead them? How if I ruined everything and make people upset?
So many negative thinking on my mind right now. It's really hard to say "YES I CAN DO IT! IM POSITIVE WITH IT! I CAN DO IT" I wish I could be a kid again where I did not think too much about it and everything seems so easy to do. I really miss the moment when I was a kid and had so many dreams (I used want to be a doctor) HAHAHAHA! :p

I am scared about the future, but I am strong because of God. My future is in God's hands and I believe He is always be there, works in my life and guides me! He won't let me fall.... I have faith in Him and I will walk not just only by my sight, but I will walk with faith. God has given to me this gift...A gift to be strong and I wont let the devil take it from me.
So do you....
Believe in God and obey His calls....and you won't regret it!
I dont know whats going on after I graduate and step into business world, but what I know right now is that... I dont need to be scared because God walks with me. He holds my hands step by step.

My friends....If you scared about the future, dont let the devils make it worse. Your dreams, your visions and your goals are in God's hands! dont let the world bring you down...but have faith in God ;-) and...
LET'S WE CREATE OUR FUTURE WITH GOD

PS: whoever you are...if you read my blog..please pray for me....So I can be strong.... :-) thank you

Rest in God

Someone told me that he did not have time to read the Bible, prayed and had devotion anymore because he had so much works to do and he did not have time for it! He had very busy schedule and he got stressful at the end.
Without God, we are nothing!
It is important to have good relationship with God in any situation. Leave everything to His hands and you won't regret it! Have faith, pray for it and be consistent worker. Let God guides you to the right way.
If you feel you do not have time for God because you are too busy with your works, try to rest in God for a while. Give your little time to Jesus! Dont forget that we have God in our life! Dont let you use your own power!

Remember, He is always be there and waiting for you...... :)

Worship is in Everywhere

Two years ago I was hungry of worship. I prayed so Don Moen came to Indonesia to have worship concert and it was happened! However, the time was not great at all! I must went back to Seattle because school starts already and I was so dissapointed and upset! I asked to God, "Why when Don Moen wanna come to Indonesia, I must go back to Seattle? I really want to hear his worship! Why the time is not right?!" God said, "My daughter, you will find worship in everywhere."

Its been two years! and yes, I have found worship in everywhere...everywhere...everywhere..I went to great Christian university and met tons of great worship singers who have passion to worship God! They worship with heart and spirit! I also join choralons where we never stop enjoy God's presence and His beautiful songs. Surprisingly, God has sent me new best friends and some of them are worship singers.

Now I know what is the meaning from "YOU WILL FIND WORSHIP IN EVERYWHERE!" It is not just from famous worship singers, but from everyone! Right now, I always experience great things through music and yes Lord, worship music is in everywhere and never stop! Your songs are forever and I will sing a new happy song for you all day long....

But I still do wish that Don Moen will have live concert in Indonesia someday, but I do believe that I can enjoy worship songs from everywhere, anytime and from everyone!

Thank you Lord for the songs....Your songs have changed my life!

Relationship

Sometimes it is really hard to "wait" and sometimes you ask God "why should I wait? why not now? I think I am ready to have relationship with him/her!" but God says "not yet...not yet...wait till My time because My time is always right and you won't regret it."
I always questioning all the time about this, but God spoke to me 5 months ago about 2 things:
"Have deep relationship with Me first and let him come to you, when I am ready!"

Whoever you are, remember, you are not alone. Enjoy the love of God because it's forever. If it's His will, he/she will come to you without you look for her/him. When its His time, everything will be so wonderful. Maybe some of you just have broken heart with someone that you dated with. But remember, God has someone out there for you. someone who is better than you've ever imagined. Or maybe it's not the time yet and He wants you to have deep relationship with Him first before you go too far with someone that you love. Well..maybe you are not strong enough or something else.
Maybe some of you have failed in marriage life, but have you invited Him in any situation that you have? This is why it's important to have deep relationship with Him first before everything "too late." When you invite Him in any situation, you will have strong marriage life because God is the foundation of everything. Let your family have deep and beautiful relationship with God because when you have relationship with Him, it is not easy for the devils to ruin your marriage.

I have been in love with the wrong person, and I dont want it happened to me again. When I was in relationship with him, I didnt talk about it with God and I even didnt talk about it with my parents. I realized that it was wrong. How do you know if he/she the right person without you ask God first?
God knows your heart...God knows what kind of person that you need to live with forever. Marriage isnt temporary, its forever. This is the reason why you need to have deep relationship with God first. When you have deep relationship with Him first, it wont be easy for the devils to shake your marriage life and your relationship. Always invite Him in any situation that you have. He is our Father who wont let His children fall and He is our God who wont let the devils ruin our marriage life.

Well I am still single, why? Because I choose to have deep relationship with God first and if it's His will, I believe someday God will send me the right guy who I will marry with. AND I believe that He won't let me hurt.

PS: Have relationship with God forever and invite Him in any situation that you have. Let God guides you, protects you and saves you from any situation. Follow Him, let He walks and speaks with you anytime...Focus on Him and not anything else :)
His love is forever....

Faith, Not Fear


Faith, Not Fear - Don Moen

He is a HEALER

Last year I went to the hospital to check my blood pressure and ended up to take medication regularly. The doctor was so surprised when he knew that I had high blood pressure. Mine was 170-180...it was really high and the doctor kept saying how young I was to have this high blood pressure. I was scared and asked God why I had this problem! I asked to God, "WHY? I am 20!" I couldn't eat the food that I really wanted. I ate healthy food everyday (which is good!). The hardest thing was when I wanted to eat something and I just realized that I couldn't eat those amazing delicious and unhealthy FOOD coz of my blood pressure and fatty liver! I tried so hard not to eat those food and lost my weight. I took the medicines regularly which was hard for me at the first time. I cried, complained and angried to God "WHY WHY WHY this happens to me! when everyone are healthy why I am sick? Lord WHY! I am still 20!" I was also afraid if no one cares about me...

However, I am so thankful for having great parents, brother and best friends who always be there for me. When I was so weak, God became so strong at that time. He gave me strength not to eat those food and not to drink coffee! coffee was my morning drink, but I changed it to soy milk hazelnut....Even though it was hard for me at the first time not to eat my fav food (I LOVE FOOD), I could handle it! One of my friends introduce me with salmon! hahaha! I did not like salmon at all last time! At that time, God prepared and introduced me to healthy food like wheat, brown/red rice, delicious salad, soy milk, vegetables, salmon, fish, etc... and I realized that living healthy life is great and I choose to continue it forever! I love healthy food! thank you Jesus for delicious food! God is so good....

Its been 8 months and getting better. Last time I checked in December, the doctor smile at me and said "its great! Im happy for u! its getting better!" and I checked to nurse 2 weeks ago and she said that my blood pressure was 119 which is normal! I am so thankful for what He has done for me. I am so thankful that He sent me a great and amazing doctor before everything was too late! and I believe that He is a HEALER! (Forgive me Lord that I did not trust you at the first time)

Until now I still taking medicine and living healthy life (well sometimes my diet failed, but hey! I tried so hard lol)...But I have faith that everything is gonna be allright! I do believe that my God is a healer. He wont let His children sick and fall. Even though there are other sickness and problems in my life, I wont be fear because I know God never stops working! He has great plans for me and He prepares it from now on!
I dont know when I will stop taking medication, but even though I need to take it forever, I don't mind coz I know that medicine is a candy from God that heal me.

My friends...
dont be afraid of your sickness. Trust in Jesus because He is a Doctor and Healer!
Never stop to have faith in Jesus in your turbulence time. Enjoy the life that God has given to you and do not let the devil take it from you. you deserve what God has given to you. Be thankful and enjoy it. God has beautiful, amazing and great plans for u! so never stop to trust Him! Let you received His peace and joy.

I read this Bible verse after I checked my blood pressure last year in August.... He talked to me through this beautiful verse when I was so scared of my sickness.

Luke 8:48 "Then he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace. "

His words made me calm at that time and I found peace...
His words is FOREVER!

Thankful

I am so thankful for everything that He has done for me.
Receive His joy and peace in your dry times.

Maybe you are feeling unpeaceful right now..
Maybe you are feeling exhausted ....
Maybe you are feeling broken...

My brothers and sisters in Christ...
STOP HAVING NEGATIVE THINKING and just keep going!
like what Justin Bieber said in his movie "Never say Never!"
and like what Dory finding Nemo said "just keep swimming keep swimming"
Do not stop!! you are not in the end zone and there's no word "end zone" in life dictionary!! but there's always have a better zone!

I know it seems so hard to continue to walk into that zone, but invite God in your life and let Him guide you.
Yesterday, I was so exhausted because of school's works. I felt like yesterday was the busiest day I have ever had in my life. Homework, study for the tests, papers, etc... I was tired, exhausted, angried, complained! I did not sleep at all last night and it was terrible! My sleeping cycle became worse...
But...God reminds me today to invite Him in any situation that I have. I TOTALLY FORGOT THAT I HAD AMAZING GOD IN MY LIFE! The devils attack us from this way!

Sometimes in life, we do not remember that we have God who can guide us in difficult and dry times.
This is what Christian about....Christian is not just a religion, but it is about having faith in Jesus in any situation!
It might seem really difficult to just continue to walk, but the fact is that...when you leave everything in His hands and let He guides you, you will be allright!

So..this morning I prayed for strength and passion. I do not want to have strength from my own power, but from Him (my Creator!). The strength that He has given to me are not just usual strength, but it is more than that! I even cant explain it by words.

I am so thankful for today. God always guides us in the way that we cannot see and it's beautiful!

My advice is...when you feel you are in the end zone, do not stop because there is always a better zone! and this zone called "His plan's zone"
invite Him in any situation...let Him guides you! trust Him! Focus on Him and not something else.
Obey Him and you won't regret it.
let you feel and taste His peace and joy that He has given to you...

Great song for you..



great words!

God is good

Maybe some of you are not in fire right now.
"I am weak right now"
"I feel so dumb!"
"Why I cannot be like her/him?"
"Why it happened to me?"
"Why I am feeling so bad mood lately?"
"Why I cannot find that joy and peace in mind?"
"Why I am sick?"
"I am fat and ugly!"
"I am not special at all"
"I am alone"
"I am feeling homesick!"
"everyone rejected me"
"I am so guilty!"
"I am scared"
"I am so busy and I dont have time to have devotion"
and....what else? you can put your complain words next!

people.... if you always complain all the time, you won't be move!
If you always talking and hearing about negative things with the wrong person or not with encouraging people, HOW you can step the next level?

guys...you are not alone, it also happened to me all the time. BUT, thats how the devil attacking you! The devil always wants to bring you down through feeling, people, and etc! The devil will never stop attack you from various ways and from your weakness! Maybe most of you also doing ministry, but why it still happened and sometimes it become worse? well... when you are in fire, thats the time where devils attack you! so guys...guard your heart by God's words, prayers and being with encouraging people and believers. Talk with the right person. Pray to God and ask Him for help!

remember guys..we are just a human..very weak human. This is the reason why we need God in our life.
Dont let the devils keep attacking you! but let God speak to you! Invite God in our life. Let you rebuke the devils by the name of God and by His grace. God is not a joke friend who always gives you joke words and leave you with no reason! He is a God, Father and BEST Friend! He is always there and always be with you no matter what!

Let you find that peace, love and joy through Jesus. When you pursue God first, He will send you great friends without you look for them. He will send you great social life (encouraging people and believers). Our God is so good and His love is more than words. He wont let His children fall.
Dont let people and everything around you bring you down! keep hang in and have great conversation with God.
-Give some of your time to God. have devotion, talk to Him and worship Him. Even though you are so busy, give your little time to God.
-Never feel you are ugly! no one ugly in this world! it's just your feeling!
-YOU ARE SO SPECIAL! Remember, God gives each of us amazing, gifted and unique talents!
-When you feel alone, never forget that God always there with you. You cannot see HIM, but you can always feel HIS PRESENCE! Ask God for friends and He will send you a great friends!
-Dont feel down when you are weak and when your friends leave you. God wont leave you! Speak to Him!
-Dont be scared. God always be with you.
-When you feel so guilty, talk to the Lord. dont listen what people say, but listen God's words. His words are always encouraging. He is a Father who loves His children more than words. You are being saved because of Jesus and He has saved you and love you. He gave His life to save you..

Maybe some of us are keep complaining about what happened these days.. but remember, dont let the devils bring you down! dont let jealously and negative thinking always surround you.
Let God renew our spirit daily.

"When everybody else is down and defeated, when you are all alone with nobody nearby to encourage you, simply encourage yourself! Your attitude should be: It doesnt matter what anybody else does or doesnt do, Im going to live my life with enthusiasm. Im going to stay ON FIRE. Im going to be aglow. Im going to be passionate about seeing my dreams come to pass." -Joel Osteen

"Friend, if you want to see God's favor, do everything with your whole heart...God will take you places you've never dreamed of and you will be having your best life now"- Joel Osteen

When there's storm in our life..Have faith and trust God!

As Christians, we believe in God and sometimes hardly trusting God. The question is...
-Are you really 100% trust God and His plans?
-Are you ready to go to the next level?
-Do you believe in Him?
-Have you invited Jesus in every situation?

If not, pray to God. Have deep conversation with Him. He never sleep and tired hearing your prayers. Trust Him and invite Him in any situation that you have. God knows more than yourself. Let God breath in your life.

Bible verse of the day: Psalm 23

God bless you :)

2010

Moments in 2010 to Remember

1. A year where I grew as a Christian
2. A year where I finally went to Europe (my dream land)
3. A year where I met tons of great friends and I call them my FAMILY

BACK!

"Elvina is in Seattle, but she left her heart in Indonesia..."

time surely flies huh? I still cant believe that christmas break is over! going back to school again on Monday...
of course there are tons of memories in Indonesia that I want to share! I had so much fun with family and friends. There's nothing better than HOME! HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS! I left my heart in Indonesia and I cannot pretend to not miss Indonesia anymore, I do miss my home so much! I wish Christmas break is longer. However, school starts soon. kinda excited but I miss home so much! what a bittersweet feeling!
it's kinda hard leaving my home this year. God makes everything so beautiful and it make me want to come back to Indonesia again, again and again. After graduate, I will come back to Indonesia for sure!
o well.. here I am in Seattle land.. I do miss this place so much thought. I almost forgot how beautiful you are and cold in winter hahah!

I love you...
