I know I will never be alone....

Finally it's weekend again. I had two exams during this week, I guess it's enough to accumulate my tiredness. On wednesday at prayer meeting, I was coughing, so after we're done with the meeting, I went back home and took the cough medicine, and slept early. I had a chance to talk to Shinta and we shared about some things and thanks God for the wonderful time I could pray for her.

Thursday morning,
I felt better when I woke up, thus I went to my morning class. It was colder than before. I was typing some letters using the typewriter, when I started to feel dizzy. Finally, I found Vonny to have lunch together. I planned to continue doing some stuffs in library after that, but my dizzy keep continuing, so I decided to drive back home. Thanks God for the safe trip from school to home. I took medicine before taking a nap. Thought that after take a nap, I would be better. No...no....it was worse. I can feel my body temperature was high, my face was a bit red, and my cheeks were like young tomatoes. My head was dizzy and painful. I still remember that last year on April, I experienced the same thing. I wasin Riverpointe that time. Thanks God that now I'm stronger that before. I was crying alone at my bedroom when I had fever last year. The homesick feeling, the family missing.........all were flying in my mind at that moment. But, this time.......I was stronger. I finally decided to continue having some bedrest before doing anything else, since I know I was not strong enough to even stand up for a while. Around 7:30pm, I tried to wake up and find some food for my dinner before taking another medicine. At that time, I remember Yuli, my ex-roomie......hiks hiks......missing her..........knowing that she will for sure cook for my dinner, specially when I'm not feeling well. Yuli has stopped working since last Friday, she is back in Lafayette now. Anyway....life must go on. I must eat something. I decided to eat the can noodle soup for my dinner. It is fast and tastes okay. Thanks God that I'm still be able to eat some food, so that I can take another medicine. After that, I heard a sermon from the cassettes that my aunt brought for me last time. Bros and Sis, hearing a sermon would help you a lot during your hard time....specially when you are sick and having dizzy. The sermond built me again. I was stronger..........it taught me to have faith that God will heal me definitely. The precher, Pastor Andrew, from Indonesia, said that many times, we don't have the healing miracles, because we haven't asked God by faith for healing. Oh...Lord...I believe I will experience You as my true healer, Amen! "You are the God that healeth me, You are the God my healer, You set your words and You heal my diseases, You are the God my healer" That is a song by the way, I kept singing that in my heart. Then.....I fell asleep again. My whole nite sleeping was full with long and continuous dream. I was doing a construction in a big building.........huehuehuee....I might accidentally bring my operation management class too much in my mind. It was so tiring to have a rest with that long, unmeaningful dream. It was 9:30pm when I started to sleep and I knew I woke up many times during that long night.

Friday morning,
I woke up early in the morning..........still having pain in my head, and realizing I'm having flu. I turned on my computer, was surprised looking at many pop up MSN windows. Some bros and sis asked about my condition. It made me happy, knowing that I have so many caring brothers and sisters. Thanks guys and gals! Then, I called my parents at Indo. My dad and mom were telling funny stories from the afternoon service at my church in Indo. Ciwan was in their room listening too. It was funny, but I couldn't laugh, cause I didn't feeling that well. I miss my familyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy........................miss my dad's stories, miss my mom's and sister's food, miss my bro's prayers. Thanks to Pastor for praying for me and also Selly for calling me for offering helps if I need. See... isn't that I have a wonderful family of God??? I can't never thank enough for this God's blessing.

Friday Care Group,
It was an awesome time to be with your family when you're sick. Although I was weak, I decided to come to CG knowing that I will see my lovely bros and sis there. We started a bit late cause waiting for our bros and sis from Lafayette. Thanks to bro Robert for the hai nan ci fan (do I pronounce it correctly?) it means steam chicken rice, and sis Sunie for the yummy soup and dessert. I was happy to see all bros and sis joining us last night. Thanks to Sandy, Linda, and Diani for coming here. Steph showed improvement in teaching, he was not as nervous as before I think. I felt stronger after having some food and spending precious time with my bros and sis. Diani and Sandy told me that Yuli brought some food for me. I was suprised and happy when I looked at the food inside the tapeware. It is a chicken congee.......man..........thank you Lord. This morning when I made a congee, I was thinking of Yuli's chick congee.....and now I have it............Thank you so much sista Yuli, how grateful I am to have you as my sister :) I also took some Sunie's soup...........So happy now...I don't have to cook food for myself.

Abba Father in heaven, thank you for putting me in Indianapolis. Thank you for training me to be an independent gal, when I have to be far away from my family for a while. It gives me the times to realize that I will never be alone whenever and wherever I am. The most important is I have You 24 hours in my life. You also gives me the chance to have all heaven's angels beside me (all my bros and sis), knowing that they love and care about me........it's so precious. Never thought how my life would be without You, my family, and my beloved brothers and sisters.

Guys and Gals, if you read this....I thank God for that. I just want to let you know that you and I would never be alone. Even......if you have no one with you to walk on this life, Jesus is there for you. He loves you that much, that He will be there 24 hours, 7 days, a week.........He is there for you. I pray that You can feel God's presence in your daily life, Amen!

It's now time to prepare myself. I'll go to Lafayette for the service and back directly. Lord, strengthen me during the trip, so I'll be just fine. I want to meet you this evening. Lord, make your healing miracle happens faster. I see it by faith knowing that You will surely heal me, Lord!
