Love is a verb, love is a decision.  A decision to give,  to care,  to open up,  to talk,  to put others above us,  to be selfless,  to accept the flaws,  to walk together,  and the list goes on, just think about your loved ones and what you’d do for them.  I am a Small Group Leader in youth ministry at my local church. Leading a group of teenage girls is not easy y’all. Haha. But deciding to be SGL is to care about their life, to love them. I definitely love them. Even though I haven’t known much about them for now. Even though we just met a few weeks ago, or just now. I decide to love them anyway. And currently, I’m leading a group of 9th grader, last week they graduated from junior high school. I decided to give them a little graduation present. I mean, literally little 😂 I bought a small chocolate bar and a mini bouquet flower for each of them. A bunch of girls which I just know most of them for two weeks. Yes, love is a verb, w...

1 Tawarikh 28: 1-20 “So take this seriously. The Lord has chosen you to build a Temple as his sanctuary. Be strong, and do the work.”” - ‭‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭28:10‬ ‭NLT‬‬ “Then David continued, “Be strong and courageous, and do the work.

Allah memilih Salomo, anaknya, untuk membangun Bait Suci. Pada saat itu Salomo belum menjadi raja. Tetapi Allah sudah berfirman kepada Daud bahwa Salomo yang akan menggantikannya menjadi raja dan Salomo lah yang akan membangun Bait Suci. Dalam pekerjaan apapun, kita selalu diingatkan bahwa itu semua pilihan Tuhan. Ya, mudah memang ketika mengatakannya. Mudah juga menerima hal tersebut ketika kita sedang d...

After watching 'The Accountant' and I can't stop thinking about this. In that movie, the main character described as autistic. Things get messed up because parents see autism as a problem. Parents want to have normal children, healthy children. But 'define normal' the doctor said.  'The expectation of this world for your child is low' 'he can do great things' These days taught me things. Every child is precious. Every child is perfect Every child has their own strength Every child has potential, talent. Every child needs to be accepted for who they are. Every child needs to feel it's okay to be different And especially, those things have to come from the parents. When the closest thing they have doesn't feel safe anymore Doesn’t feel comfortable anymore Doesn’t have love Their self-esteem would decline They wouldn’t have a safety net So what I'm gonna do, I think, to build an institution, a school, a foundation maybe. F...
