Love and Marriage

I wanna share this beautiful story to you :) A student asks a teacher, “What is love?” The teacher said, “In order to answer your question, go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat and come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick.” The student went to the field, go through first row, he saw one big wheat, but he wonders, maybe there is a bigger one later. Then he saw another bigger one. But maybe there is an even bigger one waiting for him. Later, when he finished more than half of the wheat field, he start to realize that the wheat is not as big as the previous one he saw, he know he has missed the biggest one, and he regretted. So, he ended up went back to the teacher with empty hand. The teacher told him, "That is love, you keep looking for a better one." “What is marriage then?” the student asked. The teacher said, “in order to answer your question, go to the corn field and choose the biggest corn and come back. But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick.” The student went to the corn field, this time he is careful not to repeat the previous mistake, when he reach the middle of the field, he has picked one medium corn that he feel satisfy, and come back to the teacher. The teacher told him, “This time you bring back a corn. You look for one that is just nice, and you have faith and believe this is the best one you get. That is marriage."

He is here

Honestly, I'd never "truly" trust God before. I don’t exactly know what the standard testimony is supposed to be, so I am just going to say how I feel and how God has changed my life. Let me tell you a little about my past. I almost never pray. What's on my mind was, being good, honest, and care. I love helping people, and I think that's enough. But I Just realized that it's totally wrong.

This whole time, I have been going to church at a local church with some friends. I remember the first time I came to this church, I was so scared, because I thought that everyone was going to be staring at me, like who is that? I had said I wanted Jesus to come into my life when I was younger, but didn’t let him, I just closed the door in his face. But now I am feeling totally different about my faith. I repented my life, and devoted my self to Him.

Now, I wake up everyday, and say Thank You just for giving me just another day to live. I am not afraid anymore of failing, or what people think. I know everyone sins, and we’re all only forgiven by Him. No one is perfect, but now I have an assurance that though there I may sin, I will be forgiven if I ask. I now have a goal that I am striving to reach eveyday, and I know that I am weak and that I am going to fall but with Him I can pick myself up and keep going. For He is strong, and I can’t do it without Him :)

"If you sincerely asked Jesus into your life just now, then he has come into your life as he promised. You have begun a personal relationship with God"

Lullaby Nite

To be married with someone you really love in a very special way should be a special event and held in a very exotic place. Which is why many couples have been choosing Bali as their place to get married. It has romance, mysticism and a unique culture.

So, my 4th brother said that he would come to Bali on 8 to 11 October for a wedding occasion since he's a member of an event organizer in my hometown. He asked me to help him and his team (as a volunteer). Actually I don't really interested in it. I thought it will be more way better if I waste my time at home, sleep all day long, or hang out with friends, just like usual. But, my mom and dad forced me that I couldn't refuse anymore.

However, that short 2 days has given me a million experiences and excitements. I'll never regret to be a part of the gorgeous wedding. With lullaby nite as the concept, blue as the main color, and white lily all around, I totally loved it! I got some pictures below from Facebook.
