Hellowww y'all. It's been a while since the last I posted something here.
Yeaaa life caught all my energy and attention, and I (almost) forget one thing I love. Writing and share my life throught this blog.
But here I am, a week after Easter 2024. I hope it's not too laste to wish y'all Happy Easter, and I want to share with you one of my reflection during Easter this year.
.
I told my story to some of you.
But to those who are never heard my story yet, yesss… I once was lost.
I was raised with a full story of the bible from my mum. From my bed time story till my every day advice from her. But still yeaaa… I once was lost. A knowledge doesn’t mean you have faith in Jesus.
Kurang apa my mom introduced me dan mencoba seluruh jiwa raga membawa anaknya ke Yesus? Tapi yaaa at the end of the day, it was my free will..
I once questioned His existence.
I once was so angry at him until certain point said pointed my middle finger at the cross and said: the last thing I want was to see Your face. I rather go to hell than to see You!!! (Hhhmmm don’t try this at home (read: your life) even now I shudder to think about that hell! Geezzz me and my bad anger management back then 😓
I once was so rebellious and I did everything that I can to not please God.
Yeaahh believe me that was my darkest era of my life.
So what the connection or the meaning for me? With all that I did?
Easter and His redemption, Jesus was, is, and always be my life saver.
Years after I lived my darkness, His grace met me and He saved me with His way, in my time, on my level, and pulled me from the mud of sins, slowly but surely.
He was gentle, patient, and faithful.
That was when I knew that I was loved and precious for Him even after all I did.
I experienced personal encountered with Jesus one more time, not from my mum’s bedtime stories, but by myself.
Easter is the reason why I believe in Jesus.
No other prophets or gods showed miracles like raising people from the death, heal sickness, and cast out demons.
No other prophets or gods willing to suffer and died for you.
No other prophets or gods raised from the death, conquered the death victoriously and showed me that in Him death has no sting!
So Easter means everything to me.
Easter connected every life experience of mine and make His existence make sense even in my darkest moments.
Easter is my everyday victorious bridge to heaven because Somebody raised from the death to make that bridge even stronger and permanent for me.
My bridge has a name.
And his name is Jesus.
To those who are now experiencing my darkest moment era, questioning, angry, and deciding to leave Him, I know I can’t say anything right now to make you fell better.
I understand.
Let’s connect (you can DM through this blog or my IG, I might not have all the answer
(I don’t have degree on philosophy, theology or apologetics back ground) but I have ears and faith that God loves you and He understands you.
Easter people, don’t lose hope because Jesus never lose hope on us.
Happy Easter everyone!
