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.

Good things

Good things happen recently ^^ Not so much for me though lol. Well, my NUS fren got engaged last week. She has been with her boyfriend for quite a while. Both are genius.. congratz2... Then yesterday was the most shocking one... coz I always thought all was just jokes.. congratz to the two FA frens of me. Surely love works in the most unpredictable ways. Of course the previous couple from FA was also shocking to me for different reason haha. Anyway, glad to see them happy. I dunno if Friday's dinner is gonna be good thing but I know that this is really going nowhere. Sigh.. so it seems that we are going nowhere while the others have moved on. Anyway, was having a great FA session last night. Eve shared on how God used her the night before to help cast out demons for her friend. So she was sleeping over her friend's house, they were chatting till almost 3 AM and then the topic became serious and her friend wanted to be set free from the devil spirit inside her. At first Eve was ...

song of the phoenix

Hindarkan aku dari murkaMu ya Allah, sembunyikan aku dari geramMu yang menyala-nyala sesungguhnya dalam kesalahan aku dikandung, dan dalam pelanggaran aku diperanakkan, dan dengan dosa aku bergumul sepanjang hariku tulang-tulangku serasa remuk oleh gentar, dan hatiku sungguh hancur mengingat dukaMu jangan palingkan wajahMu ya Allah, jangan biarkan rohMu yang kudus beranjak dariku siapakah aku ya Tuhan, hingga layak akan belas kasihMu namun itu yang kupinta, kuberanikan meminta, maka dengarlah jeritku ya gunung batuku sekali lagi, ulurkan tangan kanan Mu angkatlah aku dari debu dan abu sekali lagi, hembuskan nafas hidup Mu bangkitkan aku dari jurang maut Hades nyalakan sekali lagi, api kudus Mu yang menghanguskan noda cela ku sampai habis biar sekali lagi bibir ini layak berkata, terpujilah Engkau ya Allah ku yang hidup *dari chapter 'daud dan batsyeba'
