Lead Me To The Cross-Hillsong

No dream is too big :)

Have you ever dreamt of something that your heart always longed for?

And then at one point in time, after much longing,

you gave up the dream because you convinced your heart

that you’re dream is never going to be true

because it is too big to be achieved?

It is time you re-think. Dream again.

Grab the desire that you let go. No dream is too big.

No matter what – Dream. Never stop. You are not the one who quits.

Don’t give a damn about what people think. That’s not for you to care.

The power in dreams is boundless. You won’t know it unless you’ve ventured in the world of dreams. It is almost as powerful as magic.

Now, you do believe in magic, don’t you?

It is going to be difficult for you to believe in magic, if for you, it has only existed in Harry Potter movies. Magic is way beyond than just watching people flying on brooms or making things happen with the wave of a stick.

Similarly is dreaming. For me, dreaming is like watching magic happen.

We see all sorts of things happen around us when we dream, things we’d never think of.

From the tiniest wish to the most gigantic desire of your heart, dreams make everything seem possible.

Then whether that is climbing the tallest peak in the world or something as simple as learning to swim.

Dreams make you believe that no dream is too big to be achieved and it is true as long as you believe in it.

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if we lived a life devoid of dreams?

No dreams. No wishes. No hopes. How plain would life seem?

Dreams color our rather dull lives. Without dreams, it would have been so difficult to live life through each day.

Just imagine, for a second. Build a fake situation in your mind and say,

“I know it is going to be just another day tomorrow with same mundane activities.”

Trust me, you just made the day as difficult as it could get.

And not just for you but for everyone around you. The frown you wear will turn off a lot of smiles on faces around you. This is only because you are too tired with life to expect anything new.

And there is a rather strong reason for this. It is not that you haven’t tried.

You have. You’ve dreamt each day, every waking moment. Hoped that someday your dreams will come true.

In the smallest corner of your heart you’ve held onto that dwindling hope.

But fate has been mercilessly killing that hope. So then what do you do?

Do you stop dreaming? Do you stop hoping?

I don’t think so.

You start afresh. Take an example.

When you are writing, by the time you reach the end of the page you are tired.

Sometimes because of what you’ve poured in ink over the paper, sometimes with how much you’ve poured.

But as soon as you turn the page to the next one, there is a renewed bit of joy.

The tiniest bit. But there is. Trust me I go through that each time I sit down to write.

Likewise, when you keep refilling the jar of life with fresh new dreams, the sadness of persevering through old unaccomplished ones fades.

Life somehow seems much easier to live through another day and the next. And that becomes possible only because of the positivity that your dreams fill your mind with.

They make you see and believe that anything is possible. Absolutely anything!

It was just the other day; I’d dreamt that I was cliff-jumping.

If you have been following my blog, you’ll know that I am alto-phobic.

I therefore, live on a dream that I’d go cliff-jumping some day just to kill that fear. Watching this happen in my dream, made me believe,

that maybe it is not that difficult after all.

That I’d still survive if I go cliff-jumping in reality although it scares me to death. For a girl like me, that is a dream too big to come true due to my fear of heights. There are many others.

To own a house is one big dream I constantly ruminate about.

It seems impossible to an extent that I almost nearly give it up.

But then haven’t we always heard that,

Dreams come true only for those who are fearless enough to dream.

Those who don’t dream itself, how can they expect anything?

Dreaming big and hoping for them to come true is not just a fairytale idea.

But to make it happen, you must also have enough faith.

Work hard and persevere through thick and thin.

But never give up.

Think of that time when one of your dreams had turned true.

Almost like magic.

And the immense happiness it got you.

After all, even that was supposed to be a dream too big, isn’t it?

surat untuk Tuhan

Dear, my Lord

Tuhan, aku ingin tahu...

Mengapa Kau izinkan hal-hal yang tidak adil terjadi di dunia?

Mengapa aku harus memberikan pipi yang kanan jika ditampar pipi yang kiri?

Mengapa sepertinya aku harus selalu mengalah walau aku dirugikan?

Mengapa aku harus bersabar  atas banyak hal yang tidak menyenangkan?

Mengapa Kau izinkan aku untuk gagal dan kehilangan, namun aku harus tetap selalu bersyukur?

Tolong Tuhan... Jawab semua ini, karena aku merasa sangat lelah menanggung semua ini... Aku merasa beban hidupku terlalu berat untuk ku jalani Tuhan...

..................................................................................................................................................

Jawaban Tuhan...

Tidakkah kamu sadari bahwa mataku selalu tertuju padamu?

Aku tahu saat kamu diperlakukan tidak adil. Aku melihat air matamu mengalir menahan perasaan sedih tak terucapkan. Aku bahkan ikut merasakan kepedihan hatimu saat kamu dikecewakan.

Tapi tahukan kamu, bahwa Aku semakin mengasihimu saat Aku melihat kamu memaafkan orang lain yang menyakitimu dan bukannya membalas ketidak baikan mereka.

Dan melihatmu bersabar atas sikap jahat yang mereka tujukan padamu walaupun  sebenarnya membuatku sangat marah.

Aku izinkan semua itu terjadi supaya kamu terlatih makin hari makin sempurna dan menyerupai Aku.

Tapi pada saatnya Aku akan menggantikan semuanya dan memberkatimu sesuai kemuliaan dan kekayaanKu.

Aku akan membukakan bagimu pintu-pintu berkat dimana tak ada seorangpun bisa menutupnya. Dan Aku akan memberikan padamu kesempatan-kesempatan emas diamana tak seorangpun bisa mengambilnya.

Dan Aku telah melihat betapa jahatnya perbuatan mereka dan akan membuat perhitungan dengan mereka yang tak dapat kamu bayangkan.

Jadi, janganlah kamu berfikir bahwa Aku meninggalkanmu, karena sesungguhnya mataKu ada disegala tempat, mengawasi orang jahat dan baik.

Tips Memakai Softlens

Halo, kali ini gue bakal berbagi tentang Softlens. Mungkin sebagian dari kita memang agak takut make barang yang satu ini, karena punya resiko yang cukup tinggi, hmm.. Langsung aja deh! Softlens itu ada 2, ada yang cuma Softlens gaya-gayaan tapi ada juga Softlens untuk mata minus, kalo gue sih salah satu pemakai Softlens untuk mata minus alias rabun jauh! Gue make Softlens udah 1tahun belakangan ini dan Puji Tuhan mata gue masih sehat-sehat aja juga ga ada masalah apa-apa, nah ini dia tipsnya :

1.     Selalu cuci dan keringkan tangan sebelum memakai lensa kontak.

2.    Bersihkan lensa kontak sesering mungkin, seperti yang direkomendasikan oleh dokter mata.

3.    Gunakan cairan khusus untuk lensa kontak setiap waktu untuk membersihkan dan menyimpannya. Jangan menggunakan cairan khusus lensa kontak yang telah kadaluwarsa.

4.    Jangan menggunakan air keran untuk perawatan lensa kontak, termasuk ketika mencuci lensa kontak. Air keran mungkin mengandung mikroorganisme yang dapat menyebabkan infeksi mata.

5.    Simpan lensa kontak dalam tempat penyimpanan khusus lensa kontak dan mengganti tempat lensa kontak setidaknya setiap 3 bulan. Bersihkan tempat lensa kontak setelah digunakan.

6.    Jangan berenang atau berendam dalam bak yang panas dengan menggunakan lensa kontak.

7.    Sebaiknya jangan menggunakan lensa kontak ketika tidur.

8.    Lepas lensa kontak jika mata kemerahan dan merasakan sensasi berpasir pada mata.

Itu dia tipsnya, semoga bermanfaat :)

Berlari Pada-Mu

 Hanya Tuhan yang kuandalkan
Menghadapi semua
Takkan pernah Dia kecewakan
Saat kumenyembah

Pertolongan yang Dia sediakan
Tepat pada waktunya
Kuberseru Dia lepaskanku
Tempat harapanku

Chorus:

Dan ku berlari pada-Mu gunung batu-Ku
Kauhapuskan air mataku
Tetap kupegang janji-Mu karna kutahu
Ku berpegang pada Allah yang hidup
