Trusting in Him

Today I would like to share what I got from Ephesians 3

What I get today is to remember that God can use us beyond our capability.

7-8This is my life work: helping people understand and respond to this Message. It came as a sheer gift to me, a real surprise, God handling all the details. When it came to presenting the Message to people who had no background in God's way, I WAS THE LEAST QUALIFIED OF ANY OF THE AVAILABLE CHRISTIANS. God saw to it that I was equipped, but you can be sure that it had NOTHING TO DO WITH MY NATURAL ABILITIES.

In here it is said that there were actually a lot other Christians who has greater capability than Paul but, because of God Paul were able to present the message to people around Him and it was all because of God

20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

And in here I was reminded that God can do something that is far beyond our expectation and He is a God that can make us able to do something that we never even imagined ourselves doing.

So basically I am reminded that God can use us even beyond our wildest imagination. When God ask us to do something just do it even if we feel like we don’t have the capability or we are not qualified because God Himself who will guide us through.

Eternity

For your home is not the place that you are living right now. Your home is the place where you are going after you died, Heaven.

Today I am reminded that we live in this world for a very short time compare with eternity. Just remember that your real home is not the one in this world but the one that God prepare for us in Heaven

Matthew 7:7"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened."

This few days, I have been asking God for one question and I feel like He do not understand me for what I am going through right now. Today not only he answered me for what I asked Him but He answered more than I asked.
I just want to say, when you are away from God, you can always ask him why. Just tell him what is in your heart and He will listen to you attentively. He will not even miss a single word that you said to Him. When you have a question, just ask him. He will answer it in his own unique way that you don't even expect and in the perfect time.

Hearing and Listening

Sometimes, we are asking someone to talk with or someone who wants to communicate with us. Guess what? There is always someone who wants to talk with us - God. Today I learned that God is always speaking to us through the bible. Some of us including me might pray that God to speak in our life. Actually, He is always talking with us through the bible that is why we call the WORD of God. It will be our choice whether we want to listen to what He is saying or just hear what He is saying. Today I am reminded not only to hear the word of God but really listen to Him.

L.O.V.E

Love is when we want to do anything for that person
Love is when we want the best for that person
Love is when we want to sacrifice the one that we love most
Love is when we think about that person more than ourselves
Love is when we can accept that person for the way he is
Love is unconditional
Love is when we will die for that person
Love is the blood of Jesus
Love is GOD himself

It Just Me

Well, I am new in here so I guess I will just introduce myself. My name is Veronica A Thamrin and I was born in May 14 1992 so I am 17 years old right now. Usually, my friend will call me Vero, roro or just ver. Actually I don't really call which one they use because I am comfortable with all of that. However, there is one nick name that I am not comfortable with which is Nica which is taken from the last four words of my first name. I never been called Nica in my entire life until one day there is one pastor who said that it will be better if people call me Nica. OK, I think enough with nick names I will tell about other things about me. I am actually a Chinese Indonesian and now I am studying in United States so, I will say sorry in advance if there are a lot of mistakes in my writing. Currently, I am studying in Lynnwood area which is in Washington State. Now, I am enrolled in Edmonds Community College and I am enrolled here since fall 2008. I am planning to finish my AA degree in next spring and hopefully I will be accepted in UW. Last thing about my family, my parents are both in Indonesia and I am sure that they miss me coz I miss them too. Fortunately, I still have my sister who is also studying in Seattle and I will be moving in with my sister in early August. So just wish me luck with my packing so I can go through it and have fun with it. Sooo... I need to stop here because I still have assignment due in 2 hours... LOL...
