Precious Moments on Birthday

Gambar
Psalm 71:6 On You I have rested from the womb; You are He who took me out of my mother's bowels; my praise always [shall be] of You. A 23 year old woman...yup, not a girl anymore but have been a woman. Is that correct? That’s me—Haniva Yunita Leo—today. well, this day is so awesome.. 23 years ago God had done such a wonderful thing in my family by giving my parents their firstborn baby..a female baby who came bringing her own story God has arranged. And it’s me with my colourful life, dreams and hopes today. I owe god so much for this life, for all great people surrounding me with God’s love..sure i owe Him much. By the way, I am trying to record the best moments of my birthday chronologically and here are some of those great pieces.. This awesome day was started by lifting up my prayer at 12am. Yup, this is a kind of tradition, actually it’s my tradition. After that I waited for the texts sent to my mobile and guessed who was the first? It’s always her—Mawarrany Hanas my lovely

We Are Beautiful

yay,, here I am again.. hops I've been kinda stuck with the things i haven't finished yet that's why i don't have any idea to share. however, something has just come and intrigued me to write and share something. what is it? actually it refers to my favorite sickness "addicted to korean drama". I've been watching playful kiss and have been kinda crazy about "Kim Hyun Joong". the living statue--kim hyun joong yup, he is truly handsome, like an angel who has no spot at all... for those who dont really like korean actors you might not agree but those who are just like me, they'll totally go with me coz many people say that he (Kim Hyun Joong) is a living statue (because of his perfect posture). I ever asked God when I watched the drama he starred,  "what is on your mind when you created him Lord? He is just too perfect.. lol" i believe not only me questioning god like that..maybe almost all of us, when we see good looking actor

The Most Beautiful Grace of God in My Family!!

The youngest but the biggest!!! yup that's my lovely sister Eka.. The biggest Eka today is her birthday and i always feel kinda guilty coz we never have a special party on her birthday even on her sweet seventeenth today. this has been like a tradition in our family. we never have a party on birthday. we only sit together and pray. my mom and dad will open their bible and share the message and they will pray for us. after praying we have dinner together as usual.. so, my parents have taught us not focusing on material things such as food, drinks, or party but teaching us to grow up in the Word. it's always been the most qualified time ever after in our lives. as their children we're so proud having parents like them. and this time, in this very qualified time, i'd like to lift up a little prayer for my big little sister from psalm 71:6 & 144:12, " By You she has been upheld from birth; You're He who took her out of my mother's womb. Our praise

The Lesson from Cedar Tree

Gambar
............and tonight, once again, I'm curious about a tree. >.< on the first week of June I posted on my blog about a tree called "Elah" and this time God still teaches me from a tree called "cedar".  cedar tree I went to a prayer fellowship this afternoon and the preacher shared from Psalm 104, it's about the might of God in His creation. I was totally engrossed when I read verse 16: 104:16 The trees of the LORD [are] full, the cedars of Lebanon which He has planted; the cedars of Lebanon have caught my attention. yesterday i was thinking about the verse related to cedar so i tried to find in my bible but i couldn't find.Thank God i've found it tonight.. well, I remember Cedar for two verses in psalm. the first one has been mentioned above and the other one in   Psalm 92:12: The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree; he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. I know there are still many verses related to this tr

Another Great Exprerience with The Lord

So, God has brought me into another great experience today, translating a preacher from Holland. wow..it was truly amazing, how the Word flew from the preacher and how Holly Spirit has enabled me to interpret. It's only by His power.. My friend, no--not a mere friend, but indeed my brother in Christ, our leader-Jack asked me to take over the ministry since he had to deal with another one. as a servant, I just try to be available as possible as I can. I was at first kinda nervous (that's a kind of attack every time I want to do a ministry). I kept asking God that He would use me as His tool so that the word I translated could be understood well by the church. I asked my friends to pray for me, and one of them reminds me the Word of God that always encourages me whenever I feel worried . it sounds like this; "My sufficiency is from God" and yes, it's only from Him, the mighty one who lives in me. God has used me to share His word by using my talent in speaking En

The Outpouring of The Holy Spirit

Friede....Shalom...Peace everyone! It's been such a lovely day when Holy Spirit is poured out on the church. so, today i wanna share a little bit about Pentecost and some points I learnt today from the sermon of my pastor from Acts 2:1-13. The day when Holy Spirit is poured down is called Pentecost. the day of Pentecost itself actually was a Jewish feast held fifty days after Passover.  It was a time to celebrate the firstfruits of the harvest. so it was a great and wonderful celebration coz it also commemorated the day when the Law was given to Israel (Guzik Commentary on Acts 2). This great moment started by "together", when all believers were in one place ( Acts 2:1 Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place). the word "together" shows that they were gathered together sharing the same heart, the same love for God, the same trust in His promise, and the same geography. it happened 10 days after the ascension of Christ.

Morgen..Tomorrow...Besok.. why does it seem so mysterious? why do i have to be so curious? I wont feel like-- "really want another day come over soon"-- if he didn't say --"I wanna talk something with you tomorrow"--. I don't really like this sentence.. why? of course it intrigues me a lot.. if he wants to talk "anything" about tomorrow, why doesn't he reveal it at the day?! but he told me few minutes ago for the things he wants to reveal tomorrow... :( I wish I could read his mind..or if there's any new sophisticated engine created for reading one's mind, I don't care how expensive it is, I'll spend my all savings for getting one.. (lol.... r u sure Haniva?!) but that's what we call life.. none ever knows what will follow... I can only hope for the good news coz if it's in reversal, I don't know how withered I would be.. so, tomorrow--I beg you, please give me a good news! "You do not know about tom

Happy Birthday Mom!!!

09-06-2011..another special day for the special one... Today is the day when God sent a very special woman of God 56 years ago into this world.. she is one of the best women of God whose heart is the lamp for her girls, boy and her husband.. she is the one whom Proverb describes as follow; She also rises while [it is] still night, and gives food to her household, and a share to her young women. She considers a field, and buys it; with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard. She binds her loins with strength, and makes her arms strong. She sees that her merchandise [is] good; her lamp does not go out by night. She lays her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. She stretches out her hand to the poor; yea, she reaches forth her hands to the needy. She is not afraid of the snow for her household; for all her household [are] clothed [with] scarlet. She makes herself coverings; her clothing [is] silk and purple. (Proverb 31:15-20) and luckily, the woman proverb descr

Mercusuar--my temporary home

Gambar
Today brings me the answer to my confusion.. since life is all about choice, thus I've made a choice where I'm gonna start my journey as a Christian English teacher and Mercusuar is the choice, my temporary home. well, it is another beginning today. June is full of surprises and July will be the beginning. so I'm gonna be an English teacher in senior high school. I keep questioning how that would be, thinking about my students and also what I should do as a Christian teacher. I have more duties, not merely teaching but have to be the model, the representative of Christ. Jesus Christ is the one I see as the example of a good teacher. in simple words, it means they (my students) can see Him through me. I know it's not easy coz i have to struggle with my own flesh. but for every risk that is waiting for me, i just can say "welcome". I'm praying that I can do my best, spending my full capacity as a teacher there. So, Mercusuar--my temporary home--here I g

Today & "Once Upon A time" on the 6th June

"if you have been walking so far till today, will you still keep a desire to turn back?!".... (my inquiry) 6 June is the day today and the most favorite "once upon a time" for me. why I say today is one of the most important day? for the interesting journey of my life, about today and yesterday (past time) accidentally happens and happened on this date. :) 6 June is all about my dream and my favorite past obsession...about today and once upon a time :) --Today-- The day is today coz on the 6th June I start struggling for the scholarship. The application is open today so the battle begins. I've already downloaded the form. It means that the first step of all the processes i'm gonna go through has been started. the Valley of Elah is going to the second step. The covenant has been established so now my faith is walking along with my consciousness. Consciousness about the "Hebron" in front of me with its goliath and the strategy i'm gonna

My Favorite Sickness

Gambar
Being addicted to drama is sometimes kinda dangerous... My pastor said last week that life is the result of "cause" and effect". This time relationship is very clear. For example: if you rather choose to spend your time watching drama, you'd probably ignore some "more important" things to do so the result that might be happening is that you have to take more days to finish the things that can be done in 24 hours. it's very simple one and actually it derives from my own experience.. lol Recently I've been very interested in watching "Pasta" (the being aired Korean drama in Indosiar). I never miss any episode though I've finished reading the entire synopsis (you see now how addicted I am :p ). I still have a big curiosity though i know the next story. I just don't wanna miss any scene of it. in one side, i can say that i enjoy watching coz it can fulfill my mental sickness (that's what i call for being addicted to Korean Drama)

My Valley of Elah

the Valley of Elah  Every day we are in the battle field.. whether you realize or not but it's true. you face the day, struggle for your dream, try to strike your own selfishness or laziness..you face these situations every day.. that's actually what I call "a battle". Talking about battle, actually there's something God taught me yesterday accidentally from the name of a tree. yesterday i posted a poem and put a picture of tree on that post. I looked for some pictures but couldn't find the right one till I remembered a name of a tree on the bible. this tree is mentioned many times in the old testament. This tree in my language is quite funny coz its pronunciation is quite similar to the word "terbanting" or in English "slammed". Yes, the tree's name is "pohon Tarbantin" (Elah). Suddenly I felt kinda curious. I wanted to know how does it look like. I typed its name and found that picture. Soon after that I opened that

Voice from the Real Me

to you in another island...:) I like hurting you but don't wanna see you hurt I like making you mad but don't wanna see you furious I always blame you but don't want to see you guilty I like doing stupid things but in all things i do I just want to make you aware of my existence every minute and every second.. Today when you get withered I'm confused where to find a place to rest like a sojourner longing for a tree in the desert, a tree whose green can cool up his soul like a kid crying for an ice cream, an ice cream that can cheer her up so want I, more than just a tree and an ice cream I want to see your green These pointless words come from the real me deep inside my heart a prayer is lifted up for you in thousand miles away my heart whispers...... get well soon my shady green coz I'm faded away if you are withered don't ask me how just realize that I mean it :) from another me, Haniva "Ur Q"

Welcome June...my Awesome Month

Finally it's June!!!!!!! I'm always excited about this month. basically it's because of my birthday. This year I'll celebrate my 23rd birthday..am getting older.. (Thank God). everyone must be very excited about their birthday for that's the time when we realize the protection of God. i always feel that way every year on my birthday. i feel like I'm such a very tiny grain of sand among the million sand (actually sand is uncountable so "million" cannot ever measure its amount) but still the LORD is mindful of me.. isn't it very special? Sometimes i ask God why i should have been born on 28 June, why it wasn't on 28 May, July, April, or December? don't you think that 28 June is very special that God sent me to this world into my family? Absolutely.. for God says in Jeremiah 1:5a " Before I formed you in the belly I knew you; " and in Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the purposes which I am purposing for you, says the LORD; purpos
