Bonjour!! :)
Happy Sunday first of all hehehe and also happy vesak day for all those who celebrate it :]
i go to church today and the theme for this month is change or koko like to say it metamorphose.
i find this theme is very interesting and i got my fave verse.
"2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is —his good, pleasing and perfect will.3 For by the grace given me
I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than
you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in
accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you."
-Romans 12:2-3.
its a nice verse especially the part Do not conform to the pattern of this world. i like that part because for me is like be thankful because we're different from others, we're unique and special. so for me is love yourself because God has created us perfectly equal to Him :)
so that's the moral i got from the church today. move awn, i went to a betawi wedding today and its inside idk how to say this, village?? or swamp?? where the road is not asphalt but its a soil and there's a lot of garbage and yeah u know lah. when i saw the place at first i was shocked because i've never been to a place something like this before and also the place is not big but instead its quite small. but when i look at the peoples they were happy because they were happy with what they have and the children didn't even wear sandals when they play round!! its a shock for me because to be honest i would never even think of going barefooted to play on the ground with direct soil, even i used shoes just now i still even feel that place is disgusting.
but then when we (me + my aunt) were walking to puri mall (the place is near puri mall) i feel tired already and suddenly my aunt say to me that she knows that i fell disgust just know at that place and she told me that we should be thankful with what we have already because they're not as wealthy as we are but still they feel happy or thankful with what they have already, and us as the people who have more than them sometimes still being ungrateful with what we have already. that's the thing i did not even realize when i was there, but when she told me that i just realize and make me think that God is fair, He love all his people equally.
so now i really thankful with what i have already because not all people is as fortunate as us and so now that my mission is to always feel thankful in every way even tough im not in a good situation but we have to be thankful in every way!!
i take some pic on the way because im a little norak just now because i've never seen something like that before :P
