Where Art Thou

Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom (Psalm 90:12)

Some say that the question for david is not:
"why did you sleep with Bathsheba?"
but rather
"why were you not among your armies in the battlefield?"
so it's not the question of "why did you do that?"
but it's of "why were you even there?"

But maybe, even more accurately.. it's not
"why are you here?"
but..
"are you supposed to be here now?"

Many times the question is not whether we are in the right place,
it's not whether it's right for us to be or not to be in certain place..
but whether..
it is the right time to be or not to be there.

there is time for everyting, it is said.
there is time for kings to rest,
but definitely spring was not the time for david to rest.
it was the time for war.

there is time for us to be seen in a pub or bar or night club, trust me.
there is even time for us to be absent from church, heh.

when we understood the limit of our days,
we will become wise, and we will know how to make the best out of every day.

i am guilty of many wrong decisions in my time management,
and many times, the wrong decisions led me to sin and failure to serve His purpose.

so i am sorry God.. for wasting the days You have blessed me with.
and i am thankful.. for the grace that is ever sufficient for me.

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
