Your imagination is extremely powerful

i went to church today, and feel so quiet and so peace. Yes what a quite time for me to think. Think about my past, present and future. I'm so blessed today with the book of Joel Osteen "your best life now-90 devotions" . This book i borrow from my Madame (thx bu Mez!!:)..) and i read this and started 2 days ago. Feel so blessed and strengthen me day by day. the subject of today i read is having a positive vision. The first sentence begin with God created me as a visual being with an incredible imagination. And the second paragraph wrote Your imagination is extremely powerful. This topic lead me to open the bible in Genesis 15 about Abraham and God. God told to Abraham to go outside and look up the stars, for many stars he can see will be his descendants. Yes!Abraham get and understand. Abraham saw himself as the father of many nations;he saw it through his eyes of faith. That is the point. How should I do. See the best image in my future and try to get it. Just faith in Him as Abraham did!!
i remember also with the book of 'the Secret' contain about how to take control in mind and have a positive think..but..yeah..it is control by our mind.. but remember that it cant be happen if God not allowed to happen!!
Today i imagine about my future..(and singing song "I can only Imagine-Mercy Me ") what will be like.. how about my life..when i will be marry? (hehehe..when ya??still waiting sihh), how about my carrier, my study now, bla..bla..bla....
but all the future will be a beautiful things...If i always walk in His way!! Yes..just let God works His part for my future, and i did my part for future, and DO NOT TRY TO HELP GOD!!hahahha... (duhh..try OK??)
Today in the way back to home after church, i walked alone and listen my favorite song "My Hiding Place"..mmhh... i have one imagine...Singing this song in my wedding day (hahaha..ciiieee..) with my "Star", he will play piano and we will sing this song togetherr..WAAAAHHHH...SSS
OOOO...SWEEETT!!!!HAUAHUAAUUA....

Father and Daughter story

Wow….what a life… its make me more understanding about His love to me. What a incredible love, not just about how to give but how to make me understanding with what I asked. Now I understand, I realized, it was not easy to make it yes with all I asked. I have a story to tell and it make me understand about waiting His promise.

This is the story between A Father and His daughter. 7 years ago the Father promised will give a “Gift” to His daughter. The father said that she will get it when the time is ready and the daughter is ready to receive the gift. It will be the right time in the right place to receive the “gift” from her Father.

Day by day passed and she tried not to focus with the promise and enjoy life with tears and joyful!!! Year after years the Daughter waiting that “gift” and after several years she want it to happen soon because it is not just about what she want but it is about what she need now in her life. She felt that nothing happen with what she asked. And she asked her Father..why You didn’t given to me? Why until now I couldn’t see any ‘light’ with that? She pray and asked when it will be happen?She really need now… told to her Father…”Please make it happen soon, dear Father!!!... “

The daughter is only focus with that, and felt that her Father not listen what she asked. She was disappointed and crying with that. Is He forget about His promise? The promise since 7 year ago and the daughter still keep it until now. She is still fighting and trying to be faith with it. She don’t know when will be happen but it really need BIG patience to faced that. Wow..what a big..big.. patience to wait the “gift” that her Father has promised.

When she looked back, she saw that it was not easy for her, to heard and faced alone with that. Now after 7 years she knows this should be the time. The promise should be happen now. A daughter asked her Father to give the “gift” to her. The daughter knew that the Father has prepared “the gift” and will give to the daughter soon. She waited and only focused with the “gift” and couldn’t focus with other things. She’s so excited with the “gift” that will get soon from her Father. The daughter knew that she told to her Father specific about the gift. Yes, she is really excited with the “Gift”, is it will be the same with what she asked and pray with the “gift”? Is it beautiful? Is it special for her? Many question from the daughter about the “gift”. And still don’t get it until now.

One day the lesson begin and the daughter didn’t realized about this lesson from His Father. It happened when the daughter met with “something” that made her think that may be it her “gift” from God. All the specification about the gift almost same with the specification with “the gift” he asked from her Father. She saw and thought, may be this is her gift, but may be not. She confused. When “something” was come closer and closer, she was panic and asked “Is that soon? Is that the “gift” from her Father? Is it true?” She is afraid. She afraid will make mistake with “something” that may be not as the “gift” or the “gift” from her Father. Finally the daughter understand, this is the lesson for her, she is not prepare to receive the” gift from her Father yet. She’s to focus with the Gift and not focus with her tasks from her Father and her status as a daughter’s Father!!! Yes, she remember 7 years ago, her Father said that it will be come and it will be the right time in the right place to receive the “gift” from her Father. So she realized why she worry with that, it will be come not at her time but at her Father’s time.

Yeah.. nice story to learn also for me. Talk about gift from God after we receive we should keep and take care of it. And before we receive we must prepare our self. If we can not prepare all, the gift will not be precious, because we can not keep and maintain it. To receive a precious gift I must know that I am ready or not. If I am ready it will be worth it and precious time when we receive the gift and we know how to keep it forever. JJ Thank you to make me understanding Your will in my life!!
