What better thing to do on Easter than to go to church and celebrate the resurrection of our King? =D
It was a beautiful day and even though I lack of sleep from staying up late watching gossip girl last night, it was wonderful seeing familiar faces, starting with not-so-familiar face that I just met, who is also an Indonesian and she lives on Glenferrie, yay! We can get to know each other next week maybe.
It's funny how when I was suggesting to Justin of how good if our connect group can have lunch together, to get to know each other better, but we are not energetic enough to organize one but hey and hello, we did have one nonetheless, since the gals initiated it =D and although I was too tired to organize one, just participating sounds not as tiring and Ika was there so it's wonderful.
Nice afternoon lunch and really get to know new friends, that's weekends =D
And another blessing from God that I had such a peaceful nap that I didn't even realized that it was just a nap and it's not morning yet when I woke up. Just for the moment I forgot everything and felt so alive =D Although I had a weird dream of meeting Louisa and she rebuked me for not doing anything at the moment to serve at church, which I was not happy about it.
And the second part of the dream! I got trapped in the elevator in a dark Swiny building just going up and down not knowing when it's gonna stop. It was a nightmare but I didn't wake up at the worst moment. In the dream itself someone helped me to open the door of the lift from the outside and get me out of the elevator. And after the door was open I realized that it's just the feeling I got from the inside as though it's moving so fast up and down non-stop, the elevator actually stayed on that floor all the time.
It's like how I always thought I am trapped in the miserable perspective of life and not until God opened my mind to the small elevator I was trapped in it. He opened my heart to the spiritual realm and much bigger perspective of the Saviour King, God of the universe who is powerful yet loving. And things are not like what I thought they were from inside the elevator. That dream was telling me that I need to trust Him more, regardless of what seem to be happening.
And just how great is His faithfulness. It's been countless times I make mistakes, doubting Him and try to do it on my own... Still He embraces me when I return to Him. Great is the love of the Father in Heaven, and His Son, beyond comprehension.
