TO MEET SUCH A MAN

Dear friends, Just want to share this wonderful story below which I've just received from a dear friend (in Singapore) who received it from a friend in Yangon. May it bless your hearts just like it has blessed mine. One day we will all meet in the New Jerusalem. God bless, ------ I sat, with two friends, in the picture window of a quaint restaurant just off the corner of the town-square. The food and the company were both especially good that day. As we talked, my attention was drawn outside, across the street. There, walking into town, was a man who appeared to be carrying all his worldly goods on his back. He was carrying, a well-worn sign that read, "I will work for food." My heart sank. I brought him to the attention of my friends and noticed that others around us had stopped eating to focus on him. Heads moved in a mixture of sadness and disbelief. We continued with our meal, but his image lingered in my mind. We finished our meal and went our separate ways. I had er...

A Bad Journey? Or Bad Company?

When I feel bad or down besides praying to my beloved Jesus I also seek some other sources. There is a very best friend whom I always talked to and ask for advices for some critical moments, when I must make important decisions in my life. Many times we pray for the plan to come to Thailand last year and we could see how God did many wonderful things and opened ways. So this is the introduction. Now I am in Thailand, and she is in Indonesia I don’t contact her as frequently as before. Not the owner of the communication network and now only a student in Thailand, I miss her so much …. The distance of Semarang to Bangkok is just like a distance of some hundreds US dollars is the short term to simplified it. Yes, to reach another part of the world doesn’t matter how far it is, we only need to have money and valid passport/visa for a very convenient traveling, depends on the money and with whom we traveling. I will imagine that I will go there to visit her. Let’s say we have sufficient mon...

Tidak Boleh Iri Lho

Hari Minggu seperti biasa abis dari gereja udah lapar, mana pagi belum makan ya ... lagi bingung ada teman yang ngajak makan bareng. Dia juga bersama teman yang lain, jadilah aku bertambah teman hari ini. Masalahnya bukan disitu, maksudku tidak ada masalah. Ketika berbincang-bincang I can feel that they are made for each other, mereka itu sepertinya ditakdirkan untuk menjadi satu. Wah seandainya begitu sangat senangnya. Tidak lama di Bangkok dan dia sudah mendapat teman dekat. Wow. Turut senang deh. Melihat dari jauh, sepertinya menyenangkan juga punya teman dekat. Tapi sekarang mungkin belum saatnya untukku. Tidak apa-apa, saya masih perlu belajar banyak dan menikmati hidup lajangku he he .., bepergian tinggal jalan saja, mau ke mall ayo etc. enjoy my jomblo life.

A Single Parent?

Yesterday when I went to Mall to buy shoes, I was helped by a girl of that department store. My shoes just wanted to be change somehow and it's at the beginning of the month better hurry to purchase it ha ha .. First I didn't notice the girl. When she kneel down to get the shoes, I saw her long pants which was too low waisted and showed her body not supposed to be seen. I thought want to say something to her, but I consider maybe she would be angry or not. So I just knew that she has a round stomach that's why her long pants become low waisted. And then I realized that she is pregnant. When I paid for the shoes I asked her. She is only 16 years old and she is a mother now. She seemed embarrassed and went away as quick as she could. I've heard that many of teenagers in Thailand have premarital sex and get pregnant in their very young age. But yesterday I saw it, an example before my eyes. I felt pain in my heart, wow ... what a stupid girl and in the other hand, it's...

HIDUP SEHAT ALAMI

Dr. Tan Tjiauw Liat Oleh: Emma Madjid (Majalah Nirmala, April-2007) KITA boleh iri melihat sosok Dr Tan Tjiauw Liat. Bukan hanya fisiknya yang segar, sehat, dan lincah (tinggi 167 cm/berat 59 kg) tapi daya ingatnya juga luar biasa. Selama wawancara dua setengah jam, ia membuka lebih dari 10 buku, di antaranya How To Use Glutamine to Strengthen the Immune System, Improve Muscle Mass & Heal the Digestive Tract, The Anti-aging Zone, dan Water Cures: Drugs Kill untuk menunjukkan latar belakang pendapatnya. Buku-buku tersebut hanya sebagian kecil dari koleksi buku yang berjajar rapi di dalam lemari bukunya. Saya benar-benar kagum pada dokter berusia 76 tahun itu. la bukan hanya ingat warna cover buku, judul, atau tempat buku itu disimpan, melainkan hafal di luar kepala isi buku-buku itu. Mulai dari alinea, kalimat, yang sudah diberi dua garis dengan tinta merah, sampai kata per kata!. Luar biasa.... Buku-buku, jurnal-jurnal kesehatan, newsletter, baginya merupakan harta yang tak...
