You may have been in some dark places—but never the belly of a whale. Any situation is the right situation to pour your heart out to God. Reflect on something deep and dark that bothers you and cry out to God with a desperate, honest plea for salvation.
Then and now and when
On 18 October 2014, I could not contain a heavy heart and went to Hellerup Havn (Hellerup Harbor). It was a cold windy autumn afternoon right on the shore of the north sea. I remember that I watched the sea water and some sea gulls and bird (I dont know what kind) flying and chirping around. I saw one flying away (can you see it on the picture?). In my little thought, perhaps this bird is thinking to migrate to avoid the coldness of the northern hemisphere of earth. As the bird flew, I whispher to it, send my message to him, I wish I could fly to where you are because I miss you dearly, then I went home and wrote this post.
Choose what you want
When it comes to prayer, remember, becareful for what you prayed for.
So, I started praying for a guy for couple of weeks, ummhh maybe months. My head said I dont need to, because you could predict the future, but my heart refused to believe the prediction. And my friends, probably out of confusion just said a simple suggestion, pray for him. So I did.
Now, couple of months had passed, I kinda realized that the answer were here already. I did not pray a lot now if I tried to remember. I just prayed for all the best for him. And that he could grow into a man who fears and loves God more than anything else in this world.

I thank God for life.
Earlier today, when I was getting ready for church I opened facebook and read a shocking news about the missing AirAsia plane flying from Surabaya to Singapore. My jaw dropped. It is the airline which I most frequently fly with. I had no word to describe it but to scroll and scroll facebook page to know more news about it. Then I remember…
Just last night, I was talking with a friend about to board on a plane from Moscow to Cologne. And he and I were upset because his flight was delayed due bad weather in Frankfrut. We said in unison how sucks it was.
I felt my cheeks got warmed almost as if God slapped me in the face. I shouldn’t complaint about anything because I wouldn’t know about anything that might happen.
Oh, I thank God for life. Yes, for some, you might want to end yours (been there) but if we were patient God might use His time to reveal marveloua things.
In everything Give Thanks! Always remember that, Lenti.
Praying for the families of the AirAsia incident. May the gracious God fills your hollow soul. Amen.
