Resilient in Silence: Let Fear Wake You Up.

When fear takes over.
When the darkness seems revealing its power.
When the sun is not by your side.
You feel alone, rejected, unwanted.
The fear tries to shut you down.
The worries are stealing your hope.
It feels like everyone is leaving you, judging you. 
Even the person you trust the most does not trust you and choose to leave you.

What's left? who are you running to now? 

Fear. It is where depression starts. You would not understand what fear is, until you lose something or someone. Money, home, relationship, security, assurance, dignity, comfort, health, work, hope, anything.

And you would not understand what fearlessness is until you have ever experienced any fear.

Let’s think of Gethsemane for some minutes. Let’s think about the loneliness, the rejection, the fear, the betrayal, and the death, that someone has gone through. Someone, who knows exactly how it feels. Someone, who literally knows you and your pain better than anyone else on this earth. Someone, who loves you even unto death. He left His throne and kingdom for you. He is the One, who is preparing that place now for you as you finish your calling on this earth. He is Jesus from Nazareth.

What would he do if he were in your place right now? Ask this question every time fear overtakes you. What has he done in the four books of gospel, as He was still on this earth.

He already chose to love. He chose to forgive. He chose to win. So now if you’d ask Him, He would choose to love too. He would choose to forgive too. He would choose to win too.

Even though the darkness seems happy and glorious now, it won’t stay that way forever. If satan reminds you of your past, your mistakes, your sins, remind him of his future. 
Even if the darkness tries to intimidate you with the sin you’ve done, it will not be able to take the grace given by God. Not even close.

“Even though I walk through the valley of deep darkness,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
 your rod and your staff,
they comfort me” – Psalm 23,4

What is the meaning of suffering on this earth compared to the most beautiful eternal reward that has never existed on this earth?

He chose to take your place. You are His. And He is yours. If God, the King and the Maker of stars, sun and moon is by your side, every enemy will tremble. Even your fear.
Fear may not shut us down, it shall wake us up. 

Go get ready and win.

With love,

When you choose to love.

When you choose to love is when you dare to forget yourself. When you choose to love, you are opening the door to your heart and giving that person great access to you. You get a sense of belonging and being filled, you let him look at the walls of your heart's chamber, get to know your heart package. He examines what your heart needs. He studies every scratch and wound of the past, your fears and comfort zones now, and your dreams and hopes for the future. He sees you. When the observation stage is complete... it is when he is used to dwelling in your heart. He gently touches the part of your heart that might be clearing up the trash and old glass. He made a container made of white gold that ensures your heart's happiness. You're touched. Your heart is satisfied. You are addicted and depend very much on his work. You think that then he already knows you well. Slowly you sow the seeds of your dependence on his presence. Without you knowing it, his presence is like a sharp k...

ARE WE THE WORLD?

We..are..the..world .. Yesterday afternoon (31.07.) while I was still working, I saw a crowd of police and medical officers form a circle formation. They were examining a man who lay pale unconscious. As I could see more clearly, I recognized the man's face perfectly. He often begs and sells newspapers around the station. I do not know what happened so he must be rushed by the officers. Is it maybe because he has not eaten .. or die of thirst .. I do not know.  In the evening as usual all the leftovers should be thrown away. In the midst of the crust cleared up all the equipment, my co-worker said suddenly 'it's a pity this food every day should be thrown away. Many people are starving. God is not fair'. I was shocked, and the timing was very unsuitable to respond to his statement because he was in a hurry. Yes, the world has been destroyed since the sin of man to His God. The rich get richer, the poor become poorer, oppression, deprivation of human rights...

Sampai akhirnya ‘sabar’ bukan suntik biasa untuk atasi homesick sekalipun.

Seminggu sudah aku meninggalkan rumah untuk kembali melanjutkan rutinitasku di tanah orang. Hari-hari seperti ini akan teringat selalu bagiku. Sebab aku kembali pada waktu yang belum ditentukan sebagai mahasiswa pada umumnya. Dalam arti kata lain, aku dikategorisasikan ke dalam mahasiswa jenis yang ‘lain’. Iya.. kalau kata orang mahasiswa tingkat akhir. Sekali dua kali terbesit perkataan dalam hati ‘kalau tahu gini mah..’ . Mengapa? Aku belum bisa sidang proposal skripsi di awal bulan depan. Belum. Bisa. Dan juga teman teman se kosan belum penuh.. maksudnya ya rata-rata belum pada balik. Sebenarnya teman-teman seperjuangan se nangor sih.. hal ini menjadikan pendudukan lokal begitu berjaya mengitari nangor dan sekitarnya.             Awalnya mengira semuanya jadi serba salah. Namun sekarang aku yakin, ada sesuatu yang benar dari hal ini. Kemarin (23/01) aku diizinkan melayani  lagi di SMAN 1 Cileunyi. Luar biasa segala yang terjadi. Yes, pun ...
