Don't play around with grace!!!

Happy new year 2011!!! Baru sadar kalau blog terakir dibuat May 2010..uda lama banget ga nulis blog ternyata :p..dan ini menunjukan how time flies really fast!.. Banyak banget kejadian tahun 2010 yang membuat gue can't say thank enough to God for He's been so good for me di saat gue masih sering melakukan banyak kesalahan..

I got a job in EY (dimana ini menjadi tempat kerja impian saat dari kuliah..) dan prosesnya pun ga gampang..dari interview yang ancur2an..ampe akhirnya dipanggil lagi, berdoa di depan gedung EY dan akhirnya di terima meskipun belom ada Permanent Visa at that time...^^..His grace!

Another thing was I got the opportunity to go back to Indo and spent time with family....met my mom, bro, sis, dad and my precious niece..Jessica Queen after 5 years. I think that was one of the best holidays I ever had in my life so far..its too good that I can't accept the fact that I have to go back to Australia and have my normal life back as usual. For some of you, you know what I meant right?? :p..Butuh waktu sampai 2 bulan untuk bisa kembali menjalani kehidupan di Sydney..dan masa2 'melankolis' pun menghilang...hehehehe...

and...got my PR at the end of 2010!!!! I thank God that I received my PR just before I closed 2010..the process was a bit funny though. One day I received email from immigration saying that they needed some of the documents to be uploaded again. I just uploaded one and will upload the other one in the next day..but the next day, i received email from immigration that I shud upload the other document 'ASAP'. Have you ever received email from immigration like that? It's like they are the one who want to give me the visa ASAP. and as soon as I uploaded it, I got my PR within the next 2 hours..how great is our God???

There are 2 things that I want to share with you all in this beginning of 2011...:

1. Never questioning God's work.
Ecclesiastes 3:11
"He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end"

Jangan pernah meragukan Tuhan dalam penggenapan akan janji2Nya. Who are we questioning God anyway? He is the GOD and the only GOD. Mungkin banyak dari kita sekarang menunggu janji2 Tuhan yang pernah kita dapatkan, THEN BELIEVE IT AND HAVE FAITH THAT IT WILL HAPPEN SOONER OR LATER. Qavah!(waiting eagerly). Seperti Abraham yang dijanjikan oleh Tuhan untuk mempunyai keturunan, tapi dia harus melalui proses menunggu sampai 25 tahun! Apa abraham ga pernah meragukan Tuhan dan bertanya2 apa Tuhan akan menepati janjiNya? pernah!tapi saat Abraham mulai meragukan Tuhan, ia langsung bertobat dan menghadapkan matanya pada pribadi Tuhan..bukan janji2Nya....maka dari itu, bagi kalian yang pernah melakukan kesalahan seperti abraham..hurry and repent! Saat kita kembali kepada Tuhan dan meng-set iman kita kepada diri-Nya (bukan janji2Nya), percayalah Tuhan pasti akan menepati janjiNya di waktu yang tepat....(Karos)...the fact I got the PR, I never actually questioning when God will grant me the PR. All I did was believe and trust that He will make and always make everything beautiful in His time.

Never questioning God....EVER. Have a faith like Abraham..

2. Don't play around with grace.

Romans6 :1-2
"What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?"

Beberapa hari yang lalu, I did something bad to God that it would only make me cry when I pray to Him. I felt bad and unworthy...I felt that He will not love me anymore because of this. But, suddenly Holy Spirit said.."you are forgiven my SON. For I'm your Father, I just want you to be honest with ME when you are wrong. You are not my servant...therefore I have forgiven you.'
I kept crying...even harder knowing that He's forgiven me.

That's Him. He's our Father and we are His sons and daughters. We will always do sins as long as we live in this flesh. But, know this...your relationship with God is Father and son. All He wants you to do when you do something bad, is being honest with Him and repent. His grace is sufficient for us.

Then, is grace the license to do sins. NOT AT ALL. read that verse above. when we are consumed by the fullness of His grace, how can we still live under sins and do sins??? It will never be a license..Grace is the proof how big God's love for us. His love is unconditional and unexplainable. We will never understand His love anyway...therefore, we can experience His love in our life everyday. It's amazing.

So, never play around with your life anymore. Get it right...with the Words of God = READ YOUR BIBLE !!!!!


One of my resolution this year is to keep my blog updated with this kind of message. I just hope that this will be blessings for all of you who read this. Our life is His story..therefore, I will give the pen to Him and let Him write my life..so that in the end, His name is glorified!

Let's soar high to the sky like an eagle!!!!

GBU
