Evil Won't Last Forever

If you watch movies, good movies, most of it have good guys and the bad guys, the good and the evil.
The good may lose for a while, may fail sometimes, but he will win at the end, and it will be a wonderful story, happy ending.


Just like in our life, if you see many evil, many villain, many bad guys, many dishonest people, many pollution, many many bad things! Agree with me?


And we are getting tired of it, though we do anything good, bad things do still happen.


Tired? Yes.
Give up? No!


Why? Because Evil won't last forever! Keep doing good, because only the good that will last forever. Only the good that will be settled in the land. That's what God promises us.


Just like the movie, we will win at the end. Just don't give up.


"It's the men who walk straight who will settle this land, the women with integrity who will last here. The corrupt will lose their lives; the dishonest will be gone for good."
Proverbs 2:21-22 MSG

What Have You Done Lately?

Having a plan for this year? A resolution? A mission?

How's it going on? Still make it?

Some people decide to have a plan, to do something good everyday for a year, or not to do any bad everyday..

Some people decide to stop smoking this year, stop bullying, or eat healthy food everyday for breakfast.
But the question is, "is it still going well?",

Does the one who plan not to smoke this year still not touch any cigar? Or he has failed doing it? Can't handle the temptation?

Does the one who plan to eat healthy food every breakfast still eat it? Or he just failed once and stop?

If the answer is yes, that's great! Keep fighting, don't give up.
But I believe, some of us, maybe you, or maybe me, have failed, once.

Then what should we do if we have failed?

a. Stop the resolution, maybe it's too hard for us.
b. Die, the end, we just are not deserve to live.
c. What? I just can do anything???
d. Or what else?

NO!

It's not the start that worth it. It's not even the middle of it.
What does matter is the end.

The one who endures till the end is the winner.

We must go back, Do it one more time! Do it again!
Never give up, no matter what happened!

When you failed today, try to do better tomorrow.

Before we die, just don't give up being good.

Even if when our failure is doing sins, or something that we think we can even win it, keep getting up, rise up! We have God, God that will help you, because God loves you.

"for though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again, but the wicked are brought down by calamity." Proverbs 24:16 NIV

Love Fuel

"We LOVE each other because He LOVED us FIRST."
1 John 4:19 NLT
IF only we have RECEIVED God's LOVE, we WILL be ABLE to LOVE the others.. If NOT, we will be EMPTY of love, and our love will be POWERLESS!
But how can we? By LIVING in Him and He LIVES in us.. And our love will NEVER run OUT!
"Kita MENGASIHI, karena Allah LEBIH DAHULU MENGASIHI kita."
1 Yoh 4:19
Hanya JIKA kita sudah MENERIMA KASIH Allah, kita AKAN BISA untuk MENGASIHI orang lain.. Jika TIDAK, kita akan HAMPA akan kasih, dan kasih kita akan menjadi TAK BERDAYA!
Tapi bagaimana caranya? Dengan TINGGAL di dalamNya dan Dia TINGGAL di dalam kita.. Dan kasih kita TIDAK akan PERNAH HABIS!

JCblessU! :D

How's your love fuel? Empty or full?

Problems: Friend Or Foe?


PROBLEMS are annoying, aren't they?
Giving more BURDEN, stealing our JOY and they are ALWAYS there NEAR us..
But we can BEFRIEND with them, and still REJOICE! How?
"We can REJOICE, too, when we run into PROBLEMS and TRIALS, for we know that they HELP us develop endurance."
Romans 5:3 NLT
See?
MASALAH itu menyebalkan, bukan?
Menambah BEBAN, mencuri SUKACITA kita dan SELALU berada DEKAT-DEKAT dengan kita..
Tapi kita bisa BERTEMAN dengan masalah, dan masih bisa BERSUKACITA! Bagaimana caranya?
"Kita dapat BERSUKACITA juga, ketika kita berada dalam MASALAH dan UJIAN, karena kita tahu bahwa hal itu MEMBANTU kita berkembang di dalam ketekunan."
Roma 5:3 Versi NLT
Mengerti?
JCblessU! :D

See problems as a jumping rock to achieve your vision!

Knock, Knock!

Waiting for God's ANSWER? Just come to God with NO SHAME, but be PERSISTENT, knocking on the door, and PRAY more, KNOCK more!
For God will GIVE you what you ASK!
"if you KEEP KNOCKING long enough, he will get up and GIVE you WHATEVER you need because of your SHAMELESS PERSISTENCE."
Luke 11:8b
Menunggu JAWABAN Tuhan? Datanglah pada Tuhan dengan TANPA MALU, tapi dengan BERTEKUN, mengetok pintu, dan BERDOA lebih lagi, MENGETOK lebih lagi!
Karena Tuhan akan MEMBERIMU apa yang kamu MINTA!
"Namun karena sikapnya yang TIDAK MALU itu, ia akan bangun juga dan MEMBERIKAN kepadanya APA yang diperlukannya."
Lukas 11:8b

JCblessU! :D

Just don't quit praying and knocking to God!

You Will Reach There, If You Don't Stop Moving!

In a travel TRIP, when we want to REACH another PLACE, we have to MOVE and go THERE.. The time we need is according the SPEED we move.. But we'll ARRIVE there, no matter how SLOW we are, as LONG as we MOVE!
Just like a GOAL in our life, we will REACH it, as long as we keep moving, WITH God!
Dalam sebuah PERJALANAN, ketika kita ingin MENCAPAI satu TEMPAT, kita harus BERGERAK dan pergi KE SANA.. Waktu yang kita perlukan memang tergantung dengan KECEPATAN pergerakan kita..
Tetapi kita akan tetap SAMPAI ke sana, tidak peduli seberapa LAMBAT diri kita, SELAMA kita BERGERAK!
Sama seperti TUJUAN dalam hidup kita, kita akan MENCAPAINYA, selama kita tetap bergerak, BERSAMA Tuhan!

JCblessU! :D

Just keep moving, don't quit from your life! God is with you!

Endurance Builds Character

Some people LOST their hope in problems.. Why? Because their character is NOT strong enough to SUPPORT their hope!
"And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation." Romans 5:4
When we ENDURE more in problems, we BUILD our CHARACTER!
Beberapa orang KEHILANGAN pengharapan dalam masalah..
Mengapa? Karena karakter mereka TIDAK cukup kuat untuk MENOPANG pengharapan mereka!
"Dan ketahanan menghasilkan kekuatan dalam karakter, dan karakter menguatkan pengharapan yang pasti dalam keselamatan." Roma 5:4 versi NLT
Ketika kita BERTAHAN dalam masalah, kita MEMBANGUN KARAKTER kita!

JCblessU.. :D

Do you have the character?
