Day 71 03/12/11 Sidney Mohede Concert

Today, Sidney Mohede came to Seattle and did a performance in The Living Church. He is a “True Worshipper” leader in Jakarta Praise Community Church (JPCC). This is an awesome concert. Every Church was combined to worship to the Lord together. We are united from different Churches. Love is unity.

Day 72 03/13/11 Birthday Decoration

My friend had a birthday today, so we planned to make a big surprise for her. I helped my friends to decorate her room and tied her up with a rope, so she could not move. Our plan is making up her face using makeup equipment. We prepared the best for her birthday. Love is helping arrange birthday decoration.

Day 73 03/14/11 Availability

At night, my roommate told me that he wanted to make a surprise for our friend. I knew this plan 30 minutes before the surprise. I ate dinner first and thanks God I still had time to join the surprise. The funny thing of this event was we entered the wrong room. There was a man who shouted “Who is that?” We just went out from that room and actually my friend moved to the new room. The surprise was succeeded. Another of my friends got tied up with the rope and makeup stuffs. They did the same thing as my friend yesterday. I learned how to always be available for friends. However, the most important is having time for God every day. Sometimes, we always get busy in our works, but try to give our time for Him. If God wants to interrupt you to do His missions, we should be ready and available for Him. Love is availability.

Day 74 03/15/11 Spending Time with Pastor’s Family

Today I visited Pastor Irwan house. Irwan is a IFGF Pastor and the owner of “IndoCafe” restaurant.  I played Wii sport and chess with his kids, had dinner with them, and shared a lot about life with them. I gave them a frame quotation with a writer “Smiles can be catching from “Winnie the Pooh” Disney character. We are both blessed because I felt welcomed and embraced by them and they were really thankful and appreciative for the visiting. One of his kids liked to sing “Glory to Glory”; his favorite song. Even he couldn’t sing but he could remember the melody of the song.  Isaiah 54:3-13 Pastor shared about what we work is not for our boss company, but is for God. No matter how big or small the salary, the importance is working hard for God. Colossians 3:23. Matthew 6:33. In conclusion, I learned how to welcome people when they visit your house. Love is welcoming people

Day 75 03/16/11 Teaching Two Beginners Driving and GC Worship Night

Today, I taught two of my friends driving using my car. One of them was the first time driving and the other one did her last driving two years ago. It was a little bit harder than last time to teach them driving. We did practice in the parking lot of Central Market near Shoreline Community College. It was fun to teach them driving for the 1^st time using my car. Thanks God we were still safe without any accident. Love is teaching people driving. Love is teaching the beginner to drive my car.

Also there was really an awesome worship song “One Thing Remain” from Jesus Culture. I was really touched by the lyric “God’s love never fails, never gives up, never runs out of me”. I went to GC worship night and I was encouraged by a little sharing from the Pastor “What you see does not define your faith, your faith defines what you see. John4:23-24, Psalm34:8. Worship is directing your heart to God with everything. Get your mind out and take a moment for worshipping God. We worship a Father that loves us. Not just only when you are happy or sad, but every condition we worship God in Spirit and Truth. Love God with your mind, heart and strength. Worship Him with wholeheartedly. Responding of what you see”.

"One Thing Remain"

Day 76 03/17/11 Take Pastor to His Home

When I was taking my friends home after Prayer meeting in IFGF church, the Pastor called me to take him to his house. He did not drive his car at this time. I went back to Church and took him home safely. While driving on the way to his house, we shared our stories. Love is taking the Pastor home safely.

Day 77 03/18/11 #PrayForJapan

Today I wanted to do something for Japan. Not just only to give donation, but also I want to encourage people to pray for Japan. I wrote on the board, “Do you want to pray for Japan with me?” and other board “#PrayforJapan”. When I went to Shoreline Community College, there was one girl who wanted to pray with me for Japan, so we prayed together. After I had lunch in Northgate, somebody saw my board and gave me a napkin with the writer, “I pray for Japan and I am sorry for your lost”. I was really appreciative what she did. After I finished having lunch, I went Downtown. Thank God the weather for cast said today it was raining, but at that time, it was still not raining, only cloudy. There were four people who wanted to pray for Japan with me. One of them told me that she trusts God completely even though this disaster looks terrible, but she believes there is a purpose behind this. While I was walking on the street, I kept worshipping God for the peace and no fear in my heart. Lastly, there was a driver that saw this board. The car was parked near the place I stood. They asked me to come inside their car and prayed together. I really felt God’s presence and cried out to the Lord for Japan. We cried out and spoke in tongue in spirit. It was an awesome praying. The purpose of this Love action is to encourage people to pray together as united as one heart and body of Christ. The Bible says, if there are two or three people gathered, God will be there. Because there were five people who wanted to pray with me, I gave a donation 50bucks for donation. Love is praying for Japan.

Day 68 03/09/11 BabySitting

Today I visited Joy’s house. She is a great leader and a humble mother. I played with her child; Ethan who is three years old and he is so cute. I accompanied him to watch the cartoon “Veggie Tales” together. He also likes to sing “Holding nothing back” from Jesus Culture. Ethan and I played hide and seek, played with her toys, sang and danced together. This helped Joy to finish her project. She always accompanies Ethan and plays together, so she did not have time to finish her project. Joy made ground pork over rice for us. I really felt embraced, welcomed, and full of love and blessing in her house. I also talked with Martin, Joy’s husband, about a job. They are really a blessed and blessing family. I gave them a snoopy ornament with a note for them. Love is babysitting.

Day 70 03/11/11 “Joy” Sharing

I put the message on FB this morning “Smile, Jesus says you are fearfully and wonderfully made. I made a little bookmark which is written: Joy of the Lord is my strength, smile, and never give up on what you do. Then, I gave the bookmark when I lead the Care Group sharing about Joy. I made this encouraging word for people who would take the final exam. Love is Joy.

 Nehemiah 8:10, Proverbs 15:13, Psalm 28:7, Philemon 1:7, Hebrew 10:24-25, Philiphians 2:1-2, James 1:2-4, 1Thesalonians 5:16, Philiphians 2:14. Jesus = rejoice to the Lord, He is our hope, Trust in the Lord. Others = smile to people, encourage brothers and sisters, Yourself = never give up, think positive, be thankful without complain. Romans 15:13

Day 57 02/26/11 Helping to buy a car at a dealer

One of my friends, who passed his driving test, bought a car. I took him to buy a car at a dealer. Actually he was not sure whether to buy this car. When he compared the other dealer, he decided to buy the car at the other dealer. Even though he did not buy a car today, we still had fun together. Finally we had dinner together in Bellevue. Love is helping my friend buy a car.

After we finished moving my friends’ things into the new apartment, we went to eat dinner in Chinatown. Unfortunately, when we went out from Church’s van, I forgot to take my key from inside the van. Thanks God, someone had a spare key and he was in Chinatown also. We almost spent a day for this fellowship and it was awesome. Love is helping people to move into the new apartment.

Before I slept, there was a message from my friend. She asked me to pray for her friend. Her friend was depressed because of many things; she got cancer, fought with her boyfriend, her dad’s business was bankrupt, and she was at the hospital. Her friend really needed hope and encouragement. I prayed for her friend, so she would get healed and refilled with God’s love. Love is praying another’s friend.

I am blessed because I bless people. Stop telling God how big your storm, and start telling your storm how big your God is. God is able when we are available. Romans 11

Day 61 03/02/11 Kim Walker Testimony

Kim Walker is a worship leader for Jesus Culture, and a worship pastor for Bethel Church in Redding. I saw a video of Kim Walker’s testimony. She shared that she encountered God’s love. She got a vision from God. I also want to encourage you to experience God.

Kim Walker's Testimony about God's Love

Worship song:  I need you more than yesterday bethel live, search my heart.

I need You more than yesterday

Search My Heart

I went to Generation Church today. The sermon was about motivation. “1thessalonians 5:4, Psalm 91, 1Peter 5:8, 1Peter2:5, Glory to God. You need a couple group of Christian people. Do not lose God. Luke 2:41-51, Colossians1:9-10, Jeremiah 31:33-34. Do you lost motivation when you wake up in the morning? He motivates us to do it, not asks us to do it. Live motivated, not halfhearted. He gives you the reasons behind to do it, not just direction. It is more important about motivation or why you do it. You know the direction, but without gas is useless. We do not serve a silent God. He is the word to give you. Live your life with a purpose. God wants to talk to you. Wisdom is right question to ask and listen, is not having the right answer. Matthew 6:33. He is looking for surrender heart not surrender life. Purpose and motivation is not about direction. Psalm 25:4, Ecclesiastes 9:15-16. You have a confidence when God is speaking to you. This is our Father’s business. Your future is defined by Your Heavenly Father not earthly father. You do your Father’s business. Gal 5:18-26.

Day 62 03/03/11 Prayer Meeting

Usually there is a prayer meeting every Thursday, but today there is no praying meeting in our Church. However, my friend and I decided to pray together in my car for Care Group, people, Church, etc. Love is praying in the car.

 

Day 63 03/04/11 Sport Day

Today, our Shoreline Care Group combined together. We held Sport Day, such as dodge ball, volleyball, soccer, and basketball. We united as one Care Group. We played together, ate together, had fun together. Sports also make your body healthy. Love is participating with people in sport.
