I see a face in the moonlight shadow
I think I know
What the moon is really trying to say
The night is so bright
That I can't close my eyes
CHORUS
I see the beauty of your face in the moonlight
I hear your voice whispers a song through the breeze tonight
Baby I'm counting all the moment
That leads me close to your side.

Who said I wanna live my life away from you?
When days are getting dark
Believe I'll be a star to shine the light upon your night
I won't leave you all alone
The sky may fall I'll never go
Yeah
CHORUS
Even to the deepest side
Of the oceans wide
I'm going down down for you
(Going down, I'm going down)
Even to the end of days
My love prevails
I'll always be there for you

Well, we had a sharing in our bible study a couple days ago and God teaches me something really cool about this thing called "life".
I have a friend who has bitterness towards an old best friend. They used to care about each other, hang out together and did everything together. But one day something happened and it screwed up everything. My friend hates his friend now , it seems like nothing we can do to get things right again between them.
What his friend did was so annoying for him and rising up his anger that now as he said, his bitterness is greater than his love.
My friend is just one of the so many people out there who are distressed and in despair with the situation happens around them. They have hatred, bitterness, revenge, and sometimes they are unable to forgive.
"I wish I never knew him/her"
That's what we always hear from a person when he/she is having a problem with somebody.
When things go wrong we can be so easily irritated with people, we get frustrated and wish we never knew the people that cause trouble in our life.
People that are going through hardship in life sometimes cannot accept the fact of life and many of them tend to end their lives thinking that its the answer.
Sometimes when trouble comes we lose our grip and let go of the faith that we have in God, thinking that He has forsaken us and then we start to blame others, we blame the situation and we blame God. But did you know that God IS STILL in complete control of your life and the things happening around you?
Did you know that God writes your life? Did you know that He is still holding the pen and the eraser? God is STILL writing your life, He is not done with you! The bible says that He knew your life even before you were created.
"Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them." (Psalm 139:16).
When you think this is the end of everything, let me tell you : its not! God knows what to write about you, He knows how to start the story of your life and He knows how to end it.
Have someone ever told you that life is a story? That its like a film and that you are the main actor in your life? That God is the director of your life?
"A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps." (Proverbs 16:9).
I used to do a school project where we were asked to make a movie as our assignment. I was the director and also the script writer for my film and how frustrating it was when I missed one of the actors, because I had to find someone to take his place and when I didn't find one I had to change the story a little bit. We made it to make that film but it wasn't as good as what I had in mind, because the story changed when I missed one actor.
Did you know that in a film or a story, there are antagonistic and protagonistic actors? That each of them plays a great role in completing a story?
Did you know that God is the director of your life?
Did you know that God knows exactly how many actors should be there in your life story?
God has the exact number of people that you'll meet in your life. None of them comes by accident, even your enemies!
He even knows where and how long we would live ; "And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;" (Acts 17:26).
Just like a story needs actors, your life needs other people. Just because it is your life, doesn't mean you don't need others to be involved in. A story without actors is not even a story. A life without others is not even a life. We can't be a single player in our story. We need others to make it complete.
Even antagonistic actors are there to harmonize a story.
Knowing this truth, we have no reason and no right to say "I wish I never knew you!"
We're not the director, we're just actors.
No matter what happens in our life story, whether good or bad, I believe our Director knows what He is writing.
There's a saying "Everything happens for a reason", and I know God has a specific reason for every good and bad thing happens in our life. Just believe in Him.
He doesn't write a bad story about us.
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." (Jeremiah 29:11).
It turns out bad when we disobey and wish we never met the antagonists in our life, and we screw up the story. But no worries, even if it happened God is still holding the pen and the eraser in His hand. He can turn things around for your good.
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28).
Yahweh our God is the greatest director ever and I am so greatly honored to have Him writing my life story.
My friend, everyday is a new page of our life story. How good it is to wake up in the morning and say to God : "Father, You got the pen, write my day!"
I hope this note helps you to see your life in a new way.
PS : You are also an actor in others' life. Don't screw up their stories! Ok! :)
God bless you,

Well, let's jump right in to today's revelation.
I've always asked God to help me making people understand His deity, and to share the gospel in a way that even those who are not believers can accept as truth. I met many people who try hard just to find a way to share Jesus with others, even when it seems impossible.
It has been my prayer that I can reach out to those who are unbelievers and share the gospel in a simpler way that they can understand, but I end up finding that even Christians don't know what and who they believe in and when the unbelievers ask them they just change the topic and embarrassed because they cannot give a good answer and so I always ask God to help me to know Him more and to make Him known.
Sometimes people ask me about so many things dealing with my faith, they ask about The Godhead, about resurection, Holy Spirit, rapture and of course about Jesus. "How can He becomes God and man?, How can He redeem all the sins of the mankind? How can He died and rose again and will come back again in the end times?" All these things are beyond human knowledge and so these will be the things that make people cannot receive Jesus, especially the non-christian.
I live in one of the largest moeslim countries in the world and you know, those who don't believe will question your faith everyday, so I always ask God how can I tell them about Jesus and how can I make them understand? But one day in my devotion, Jesus revealed the truth which for me is a great promise. Here we go :
"WE CAN NEVER UNDERSTAND GOD UNLESS HE REVEALS HIMSLEF TO US".
One greatest revelation of God is His word. That's why the only possible way to understand Him is by reading and studying it.
Not even pastors can understand God, nor apostles nor prophets.
"Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it."
(Psalm 139:6).
In the book of Colossians, the apostle Paul said that there is a mystery that not everyone can understand, the mystery of Jesus.
Someone told me one day; in sharing your faith with others, your job is simply to share, the Holy Spirit will make them understand. You're not responsible for their response. They will believe it or not, its not your business. God will take care of everything. Sometimes we will be mocked for our faith, even killed, sometimes people call us freak, they might despise our faith in Jesus but its ok, because at the end in His return, we will appear with Him in glory. Check it out,
"When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory." (Colossians 3:4).
What a promise! :) Can you see the promise inside that verse? What does it mean "shall ye also appear with him in glory"? Christ will bring you and I (His witness on earth) and have us standing side by side with Him when He comes back and guess what, everyone will see that we are not liars, we are not mis-leaders. I believe Jesus will declare that day "These are My servants whom you despised, the ones you called liars, the ones you called mis-leaders, the ones you called freak, the ones you killed. I set them forth before you as a prove that their faith is real. Here I am, Jesus, the One they spoke about, the Savior they preached about. Now you see that their faith is evident and is as real as I am real"
And then, the scripture will be fulfilled ;
"That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." (Philippians 2:10-11).
How I'm looking forward to that day.. God is fair, isn't He? :)
Today we become His witnesses, but there'll come a day when He returns, He will become our witness to the whole world that what we believe is true.
One day in His return, we all will share in His glory forever.
So I encourage you, not to grow weary in sharing the gospel. Know the truth that Jesus is right there by your side.
And when you think you can't understand Him, HAVE FAITH IN HIM!
In sharing Jesus with others, use your faith, not your brain!
May God bless you all.

CHRISTIANS SHOULDN'T BE A BIT SURPRISED- GOD WARNED US ABOUT THIS IN HIS WORD LONG AGO.. THE APOSTLE PAUL CALLED IT "HAVING (YOUR CONSCIENCE SEARED WITH A HOT IRON." SIN WANTS TU CALLUS OVER YOUR INNER SENSITIVITY TO GOD'S VOICE AND DULL THE PAIN OF SIN SO IT NO LONGER BOTHERS YOU TO DO THINGS YOU WOULD NEVER DO UNDER BETTER CIRCUMSTANCES...
NOW, FOR THE GOOD NEWS; IF YOU CAN RAISE YOUR SENSITIVITY LEVEL TOWARD GOD'S VOICE AND TOWARD SIN, THEN YOU CAN RAISE THE MIRACULES IN YOUR LIFE... HOW CAN I CLAIM SUCH THING? REMEMBER THAT IT WAS COMPASSION THAT MOVED JESUS INTO THE REALM OF MIRACULES....
God bless

There’ll come a day when all our tears will fade away
There’ll come a day to stop the pain
Lift up your face and see the beauty of the day
When the ocean smiles to you
This is the day for all our tears to fade away
This is the day to stop the pain
Open your eyes you’ll see the beauty of the waves
Coz the ocean laughs with you
CHORUS
The ocean sings for you and I
The ocean wanna see your smile
The ocean wish you’ll never cry
Coz it’ll be a bridge
For us to never say good bye.
Composed by : Jack Loloin (IPY - SG E)
PS :
I dedicate this song to all PYs, Administrators, NLs, and the Ship Crew. Let this be our song of friendship. One day when you think of this moment just look at the ocean. Even if we’re separated by distance always remember, the ocean is the bridge and it will always be a bridge for us to never say good bye!
I wake up in the morning
Everything’s so wrong, something’s gone
And I’m alone
In the middle of the crowd
I hear the people laughing
But I’m crying
I’m so left out
I’m out of place, need to find a way
To you
CHORUS
Good morning Indonesia, all my love to you
Here I am so far away but my heart will always be there
Good morning Indonesia, how I miss you so
I promise you to be a light that everyone can see you
Good morning Indonesia
