Introducing Memory Lane

Yeay!! Finally I can introduce to you guys, memory lane :D This is all about scrapbooking and DIY stuff that originally handmade by me ;) And I do open for orders now, please help me to spread the news! :P 

Nah ini scrapbook frame pertama yang gw buat, untuk anak CG gw yang birthday. Jadi themenya garden gitu deh. Frame 3D ukurannya 30x30cm, tebel 5cm dengan kaca. 

Sedikit cerita gimana akhirnya gw memberanikan diri untuk mutusin start bikin side job gini. Earning a living while doing what I love is a dream that I wish to pursue. Tentunya ada harga yang harus dibayar T.T Gw sibuk ajegila-gilaan. Kerjaan kantor gw berkutat dengan data jadi ingetan mesti kenceng benerrr! Pengerjaan majalah Pearl, mostly kita kan beda negara tuh jadi cuma contact via email/ bbm gtu. Tapi God is so good dah, He is really Jehovah Jireh!! Terus ministry di gereja ada training-training, en GMS lagi banyak upcoming event, juga pengembalaan CG. Belon lagi harus bagi waktu antara me-time, family-time, and friends-time.

Awal-awal pas bikin ini, I dunno how many times I tempted to gave up. Coz gw berasa gak mampu. Cuapeeee poll. Terus liat competitor lain pada bagus-bagus banget, jadi minder! Terus inget quotes ini:

Do not compare your beginning to someone else's middle 

- Jon Acuff

Terus jadi mayan semangat lagi, coz deep down in my heart. I really know that.. this is my passion and what I love to do :) To design and inspire others is my passion. I truly LOVE designing, writing and doing handmade stuff. Always believe that personal touches make things more precious :D

Your Prayers Matter Because You Do

Gw subscribe weekday email dari Max Lucado, dan kadang kalo lagi rajin gw bisa sangat fokus bacanya, tapi kadang juga karena uda cape jadi selentingan ajah. Biasanya email'nya masuk ke hape itu malem-malem sekitar jam 6an or jam 7an. Nah email ini sampenya kemaren malem, tapi gak gw baca karena kemaren tepar poll. Terus pas hari ini sampe kantor, cek email.. buka email dari Max Lucado ini dan gw bener-bener tertarik dengan judulnya. Dan pas gw baca terus, bener-bener ada damai sejahtera yang mengalir di hati ;) Super WAH gitu loh, beyond words deh! Especially the last paragraph ;D Jadi, baca dan simak every words baik-baik yah, you will feel God's love overflow within your heart! It blessed me so much and I believe it will bless you too. Enjoy and happy reading!

When I was a high schooler, my friends and I spent a Friday night in a part of the county where we did not belong. As far as my parents knew, I was at the local ice creamery enjoying a treat with my friends. Actually, we were twenty miles away from home, in the country, looking for fun on a country road. We didn’t have fun. Instead, we had a flat. The spare tire was flat, too. We had no other option except to call my dad. I rousted him out of bed at the midnight hour.

He drove his truck out into the back roads and found us. We fixed the tire and drove home. When we reached the house he sat me down in the living room and gave me a good talk. He took away my car keys. He took away my privileges. But then, surprisingly, he took away my fear by saying, “Max, I’m upset with you. But I understand the temptations. I remember what it is like to be a teenager.”

Dad, a teen? Shocking thought. But he remembered.

God, a human? Stunning truth. But He remembers. “We don’t have a priest who is out of touch with our reality. He’s been through weakness and testing, experienced it all—all but the sin.” (Hebrews 4:15 MSG) There is never a time that He responds to your prayer with this thought: “I just don’t get it.” He knows how you feel.

And, this is huge, “He knows what you need before you ask Him.” (Matthew 6:8) You don’t have to write your own prescription. God doesn’t need our counsel or advice. “Before they call I will answer, while they are yet speaking I will hear.” (Isaiah 65:24)

People sometimes say, “Be careful what you pray for, God will give it to you.”  Hogwash. If you don’t need it, He won’t give it. He loves you too much to give you the wrong answer. Is God no more than a computer, programmed to respond to the data you enter? By no means! He is your Father who says: “I know the thoughts I think towards you…thoughts of peace and not of evil to give you a future and a hope…call upon Me and pray to Me and I will listen to you.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

Prayer is only as good as God is. Since He is good, so is prayer. Prayer works because He does. Prayer changes things because God changes things. Prayer makes a difference because God has determined to make a difference. Prayer matters because you matter to God.
