whose hands is future in?

As humans, we cannot help ourselves to think about the future. 'Where would we live for sure?', 'What would we do after we finish study/this job?', 'What kind of family we want?' and many other questions regarding our lives in 'sometime in the future' term. We have been going through this issue lately. As a new little family, often in our conversations, we cannot avoid to discuss what kind of expectation of the future we personally want. Lan, being the head of the family, somehow tries so hard to get my expectation of our family right so that, hopefully, he will be able to make it come true.
However, it is such a vague and ambiguous issue to discuss. Who knows where the future leads? Only God knows. So, as many times as we discuss about future, that many times I told him to just lead it 'flows'. I believe God knows what's best for us, He has the perfect reasons of where He will reside us at, what job He will give us to do and for all the other things, too.
Well, not as easy as saying it, trust in God is really something that I put my hope in. Through the years of experience walking with Him and being guided by Him to get to United Kingdom, finished my Master, found the best husband I could possibly have and to be married with Him, I believe God (my Lord Jesus) has a very special plan for me, even before I was born. And now, since Lan and I have become one union, I believe that God has a special and beautiful plan for our family; a plan of prosperity and not disaster.
And so, through my hope and trust in God, I continue living my days with beautiful dreams, having Him as my strength to carry on, believing He never forsakes me and will give the best for our family.
Future in Jesus' hands is the best future we could have asked for.

    hahaha, setuju. We make the plan, God decides the rest, hehehe... . kadang malah rencana yg dah dibuat gak berjalan mulus dan "banting setir" ke hal lainnya, hehe.... ;) makanya kadang aku jg gak mikir apa2 buat masa depan, walo ada rencana, tp let it flow ajah... ;)

    Sher, janganlah kuatir dengan masa depanmu karena Tuhan udah merencanakan yg terbaik buat kalian b2. Jalanin aja apa yg kamu sedang jalanin sekarang.

    Aku jg after merit, mo pindah ke sydney. Banyak yg bilang it's a crazy idea, krn di bne udah dpt kerjaan bagus, etc, etc. Tp koq ya feeling ke sydney-nya strong bgt... So we'll start a new life, with a new status, new place, new job, new everything. Yg terpenting, Tuhan-nya tetep sama. And we all gonna be allrite. :-)

T uesday, 29th August 2006 has became a special day for both Lan and I. Why? Well... let me tell you the story. Around five in the afternoon, Lan rang me telling me not to cook, because he will treat me for dinner. So I just waited with no thought of what will happen afterward. In the middle of me watching Marrying a Mafia , my phone rang again. It was Lan, saying that he is outside the entrance door of the hall I live. It was about six o'clock. I quickly paused the movie, grabbed my keys and ran to open the door for him. When I met him at the door, he was formally clothed and holding a bouquet of roses (and a plastic bag). I was surprised... for him to buy me a bouquet of roses in United Kingdom was the first time, I don't ask for it, because I know flowers are quite expensive here. Suspicion came to me for awhile along with the question 'what is he up to this time?!' . But I quickly brushed it off thinking that maybe he was just being nice since we only have several d...

A loha!!! I am back from busy days... I miss my blogging world so much hehehe... probably missed a lot of stories as well from you guys. Oh well... now that the exams are over , I can have a little bit relaxation for myself. For the last several weeks, I and my feelings have been up and down... There are times I am sad, stressed out, happy, leaping in joy, oh... it is a mixture of feelings. Well, I don't really want to discuss any of them in particular, but this post is just to tell you that I am back. Now, I have so much blogwalking to do! So wait for me in your blog, okay!!

A khirnya ludes sudah kertas lipat yang dikirim mamiku dalam jangka waktu kurang dari seminggu! Sayangnya jumlahnya kurang, jadinya botolku hanya terisi separuh. *Ada yang mau nyumbang ngirim? Karena aku tahu di sini tidak ada yang jual kertas lipat yang seperti itu, adanya yang bujur sangkar saja* So, here is the picture. Gak terlalu jelas sih, tapi ya kanggo lah ya hehe... Tak terasa sudah 2/3 dari liburanku terlewati, tugas belum semuanya tuntas, tapi mata terasa penat karena harus membaca banyak jurnal dan buku tebal untuk mencari data... *sob* Jadi minggu depan, bakal full time doing homework deh! Tadi *jumat* aku bereksperimen di dapur. Bikin brownies... belum aku coba sih rasanya bagaimana kue yang baru keluar dari oven itu, tapi waktu mengaduk adonan, rasanya sudah pas. Aku bikin kue dalam rangka ultah si Lan tanggal 13 kemarin. Kebetulan dia sudah kembali dari Cambridge, jadi besok aku akan berkunjung ke tempatnya dengan membawa kue brownies dan hadiah ulang tahunnya . Semog...
