Greetings!

Finally it is Easter after 40days of fasting Lent month...

To say the truth, I didn't put a lot of efforts and didn't took the opportunity to be a better Christian during Lent...

I should be ashamed...

I kept on fell into temptation especially when it came to dealing with persons that I dislike...

One thing I learned, the thing that we should fast are the things that we love to do and we know that the things that we love to do are not a under the category "benda-benda baik"...

Things such as "mengumpat"

Things such as "laziness"

Things such as "pemboros"


If we concentrate on fasting on foods alone,

Well, it can be done anytime, which in everyday life we call it "dieting"


If we can reduce or completely erase our "mengumpatness, pemalasness,pemborosness" and any other "sikap yg kurang baik" nature, that's what we call a "Puasa Yang Benar"...

Or during the holy month of Lent, we try to forgive those peoples we dislike the most...


I'm ashame of myself..

I am bless with all this knowledges but I do not take even a single step to practice it...

I'm not proud of it...

I know I'm a sinner and I'm not perfect but I'm not proud of it...

Why should I be proud when I know the fact that I can change myself at least to be a better human but I never even bother to try....

There are no excuses for that...


Forgive me Lord for I have sinned...

Eventho' I was defeated...

I will try again and again and again...

Don't let me take your blessing for granted...

But guide me to fight all the evil temptations and bless me with your love and strength so I may use all these graces that you gave me for the good of others and myself...


Lord, you are risen...

And You will come again.


May all of us are ready for your second coming to the earth..

Amen.


Happy Easter.


GOD BLESS;

Maybe for once..

Shows some respect when you are in a church...
I'm not judging..
All that we do in life...
We are the one who bear the consequences...
The good or bad..
Only God can decide...

We have 7 days in a week..
And like me who only attend church once in a week for Sunday Mass or sometimes during sunset mass, I try my best to dress appropriately..
What I mean by appropriately dress?
Tot wear something that is not too revealing...
Not to flashy...

I know, semua dari hati kan...
Yang penting kalau pigi church, hati mesti ikhlas...
Apa-apa yg kena pakai pun, nda kisah...

But actually, the case is, if you are really-really sincere, you won't dress inappropriately...
Because we are there to pray, to praise and listen to the beautiful words of God...
Not to show off what we got...
And to listen to the lessons given by the priest..
Not to treat church as a fashion parade....

The mass took only about 1 1/2 hours max....
Is it very hard to dress nicely for only this duration of time?

Furthermore, we are provided 6 days, in our disposal, to wear anything that we like (or naked also can if you want)...
Why we don't we take the effort to wear appropriately for only a short time?

I'm not judging or said that this is wrong...
But I just feel it is not right...

This body is the temple of God..
So, treat it nicely...

AMEN.

GOD BLESS;
