Fairy Tale with a Tail

Here's a story of a senior I met at UPH.

I remember one day, this senior girl went up and lead worship with a guy, singing "Rindu Slalu" in chapel.
Somehow I was blown away. I thought.. woww.. that song was so touching.
Btw.. my modern Christian songs journey began with 'Saat Menyembah' album by Franky Sihombing.
Masi pake kaset, yg covernya item.
I digress.

Back to my senior.
From that day onwards, I admired her. And she somehow looked gorgeous with her trademark bandanna. Maybe I always liked bandanna to begin with.
And she was kind too. Type senior populer dah.

And one day, I had a shocking revelation.
That senior.. was actually the daughter of my mum's very close friend in Jambi.
We met many times when we were much smaller.. but I couldn't recall her. Obviously she wasn't that pretty at the age of 10 or 11.

Cut the story short..
After few months, I left UPH. And after few years, I heard from my mum that she got married to a guy who served in the same church with her.
Typical Christian love story :P

And fast forward a bit more, I was told she moved to US with her husband.
I didn't know how they did it but they seemed to settle well over there. Good for her. Seemed like an ideal life.

Except for one thing.

Today I was told she has divorced and returned home with her three kids.

Somehow, somewhere, somewhat.. this typical Christian marriage went wrong.
I don't understand.
Sigh..

I hope you are coping well and God would take care of your every need sis.

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'
