God's love in my life

I've been busy for the weekend, so have no chance to write the diary. Last Friday, we had a care group to celebrate Christmas. It was wonderful and awesome. Thanks to Steph and Selly who have arranged the gathering. Rudy, a brother from Lafayette joined us. The food, game, praise and worship were wonderful. I thank God for creating CaPLoG inC. as a place to share life with other brothers and sisters. They are all wonderful people. All of them has been supporting me to go through happy times and stormy seas. Very proud of them. Thanks Lord, for I can have a family here, a place to love and be loved, to care and to be cared, to give and receive....I never regret to come to Indy, thinking back about how I ended up studying in IUPUI...man...it's just because of God's wonderful plans in my life. Sometimes we can't see our path of life clearly, but God sees the master plan. He knows what is heading in front of us and what is our finish line. Just be obidience and sensitive toward God's voices. After the CG done, I went to Lafayette with my "step brother" Rudy. Thanks to Rudy for whatever things that he has done to help and support me. Last Tuesday I had a lil' accident. I accidentaly hit the pole of the car port in front of my apartment. I was so shocked, sad, and regret, but again...God taught me to be grateful in everything. He gives and takes away....my heart will choose to say, "Lord, blessed be Your name!" Amen!! through this accident....God revealed wonderful fact. As i was going from one body shop to another, I looked at several new Honda Accord....I was sad and jealous because my car is not as beautiful as them anymore....sorry my car...I thought it will be great to exchange my car with the new one. On the music practice prayer on Saturday, God showed me about His endless and unconditinal love to the world. Brothers and Sisters, Friends, try to imagine our life like a car. As a car, we may have been bumped, hit, crashed with something else....we are not as "perfect" as the first time. Like a cloth that God designed to be pure white, we are not white anymore. Lots of things may have poluted us....but see what God does??? He never even thinks once to either exchange or throw us. He sees us just like a precious gold....He values us the same as before, and when you confess and repent from your sins, God takes you once again from the dirt, washed us with His blood, and makes us brand new. Understanding His love that is so deep, long, wide, and undefined...let us not take that for granted. Come on....come back to the Father. He is waiting with wide open arms over there.....waiting and waiting...to see all the children back to His arm again. I'll write a new song that God put in my heart after He revealed this thing to me:

Bapa (Father).....
Panjangnya kasih setiaMu (How long is Your love)
Lebarnya belas kasihMu (How wide is Your compassion)
Kau tidak ingat salahku (You don't remeber my mistakes)
Kau tak perhitungkan dosaku (You don't count my sins)

Bapa (Father)....
Bila kuingat perbuatanMu (When I remember your deeds)
Semua yang telah Kau lakukan (All things that You have done)
Tiada kata yang dapat kuucapkan (No words can be spoken)
Selain sembahku padaMu (Only my worship to You)

Walau 'ku tak sempurna (Although I'm not perfect)
Kau tidak buang aku (You don't throw me)
Walau 'ku tak putih lagi (Although I'm not white anymore)
Kau tetap pandang aku (You still look at me)
Sebab Kau telah pilihku (Because You've choosen me)
Sejak semula (From the first time)
'tuk jadi anakMu (To be Your children)

As this revelation has blessed my heart, I hope it can bless your heart too. Hope you'll be strengthen after realizing how God loves you deeply.
