God Is Not Deaf

The title, which I recently finished reading a book called "Tuhan Tidak Tuli" in Indonesian, in the English version, God Is Not Deaf by Grace Suryani, Ratna Pudyastuti, and four authors. This book is about Yahya A. Tioso who is a Deaf person struggling with his faith, dream, and life. He is currently living in Australia with his wife, Monica. I don't need to write a review, but I strongly recommend this book can be the inspiration that you need to turn and know how powerful God is. 

A movie has been my favorite to watch as often, called "God Isn't Dead: A Light in the Darkness", sequels 1 to 4. It has been my inspiration to keep believing in God and feeling the presence of God. I probably cannot see Him in real but I can see He is in my heart. See Psalm 26: 2 ESV, is saying

"Prove me, O Lord, and try me;
test my heart and my mind."

Proving God exists, that's what of a say, more than a word, scientifically, it can look complex and hard to understand logically, but that comes to yourself who have experienced feeling God exists and never die. I was an agnostic, closer unbelieving God exists, but at other times I had unrealized that something just finished my life problems, I witnessed all for throughout the journey. I suddenly became happier than I felt before, it that uplifting to trust God exists! See Jeremiah 29: 12-13, about talking "you will seek, find, call, and pray" by all your heart, He will hear you. It means He cares and loves you, whether you are an unbeliever or a believer, He understands how much effort you to seek and find who God is. During this week's Sunday preaching "What is Scripture", Mike preached that knowing God is greater than serving God, he struggled to find who God is before joining the Core Group at a university. It as does to me as a reflection of my past to unbelieve God exists and now am proud knowing God exists, have decided to follow Him because He is the Lord who I believe for.

God never deafness, God hears as long as how much effort to turn working in your faith. God never harms you in Jeremiah 29:11, as how many times you struggle, He has prepared His plans and He knows when you admit God exists. Read Ephesians 1:4;

"Even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world...." Ephesians 1:4.

What a verse! That has never I know before! So, you are under God's plans and He is nearing you, at the moment and now!

Turn to God soon, not later.
Work in your faith.
Knowing more about God.
Because He isn't deaf.

The Idea of Feminism In the Church

A veiled woman lighting up a candle in the Orthodox Church, source: Adobe Stock Roman Catholic Pope Francis appeared a 60-minute on CBS's live-streaming interview with a female reporter, Norah O'Donnell. She was curious in a question towards on him,  " I'm curious, for a little girl growing up Catholic today, will she ever have the opportunity to be a deacon and participate as a clergy member in the church ?" Pope Francis simply, saying, " No ." O'Donnell seemed to trying to push on him about her idea of the progressive and reformation in the Catholic Church. But, thanks God, Pope was strong defending his faith.  This is a 60-minute interview has opened that in fact the pressure of the church reformation has been increasingly happening today. We heard that some churches trying to allow its LGBTQ movement within church life, like the Unitarian church. And, I think some churches have accepted the female ordination, but usually it is Protestant church b

Women, Modesty, and Veiling

(Veiling of women in different era, source: Diaqnoz.Az) " I am Orthodox and I do not agree with veiling " on a comment that recorded on Instagram while posting a reel of female Orthodox veiled at a church and monastery.  I am Orthodox and I do agree with veiling . So, why? The first place, that people may think that we are "sexist" or "pervert" as controlling on female clothing appearances. That's possible because we live in a modern era which is the female rights are more honourable and important in its society. Many girls are independent raised well and having same chances of working at secularism typically careers. But, as Orthodox Christians, who we know that we are about 2.000 years living to equip our Christ looks like in the modern era, which that has been fallen down, especially rising up feminist's movement. The feminism is mainly different from what women have fought for equality gender as surely their aim is to dominate and create the &q

The Pascha, Life Bond, and SO SPECIAL! Orthodox Christianity!

Holy Fire in Jerusalem We typically celebrate the Easter - however that the Orthodox people generally saying that's Pascha - but I felt like that was so special that I celebrated the Pascha in a different Christianity tradition which was unfamiliar to myself, being to live in the country who well-known about Western Christianity. We celebrate the Pascha on a different calendar, it is Julian Calendar so many people wonder that why we are being late celebrate the Pascha and even the Christmas, a week late (between 12-13 days on Julian and Gregorian calendars) from the Western Christians. But, in certain times in history, we celebrate on the same date like 2017 we celebrate the Pascha together with Roman Catholics and it will be happening next year! The Eastern Orthodox is the holy and first church to just celebrated a blessed holy week in last week! Unfortunately, I was unlucky in that schedule as I had a five-day training during the holy week schedule, that caused I had to miss mult
