Just Material for Our Reflection : Whose prayer will be answered?

God does not play dice....


I heard one story about a Cheetah and a Gazelle, and want to share with you guys. 

One day there a Cheetah and a Gazelle. They chase each other. The cheetah chased the gazelle and the gazelle tried to save itself. The cheetah running while praying silently, "God, I'm hungry. Please give that Gazelle to me and my family." while in the point of view of Gazelle it pray to God "Please save me God... my family is waiting home".

Then which prayer will be done by God?  

This question is not to answer but to be reflection for us. Due to our life not only about who will be supported by God. But rather more about the role, awareness and sincerity that we will carry out.
Most of us judge a prayer from the result we received. Universe and God it self not work as simple as that. Sometimes, we role as hunter that deserve the results of the efforts we have made. In the other time, we role as prey that only want to life in hope and survive from the situation.

However, behind all that, God is building some harmony, not a messy drama. God doesn't play dice to choose either the winner or the looser. Every situation in our life, event the worst events is one of the glorious creation from God. Maybe the cheetah failed today, but still alive for tomorrow. Maybe the Gazelle saved today but still to alert next time, or their prayers were answered in ways we don't understand but in a ways they needed. Because, in the true spirituality, prayer is not only about done or not but it's about sincerity and awareness. 

Do we fully present in our prayer? Do we become universe balance?
Nothing is coincidental in this world. Everything is a message including the need for hunger or fear.

BURN OUT...... (JUST YAPPING)

Have you ever been at a point where you didn't know what to do? You felt and experienced uncertainty in life. It was like you were stuck. You had no purpose, no idea what you must do in your life? You think it's probably better to just go with the flow. NO...., it's not a feeling of not knowing what to do, it's more like being confused about where to start. It feels like you're living within other people's expectations. You want to please them, Even like you have too high expectations for your own life. It just feels like "I'm not good enough." You feel like you know you need someone that genuinely listening to you and you want to be treated well by them, the way like you treated them. But when you try to speak or express your feelings, you feel like you're just messing things up. Until you unconsiously keep your feelings to avoid making things worse. You feel like the prayer that you do is useless. you still feel don't know what to do. Yo...

Situationship

 Have you ever been unsure about your own feelings? More likely about whether these feelings are right or wrong? It's feels close but far at the same time. It feels comfortable every time he's around you but some of yourself must aware that there is no binding relationship. Simultaneously afraid, whether this is just filling a momentary emptiness or true comfort. All i know right now is i'm happy to be around him, and also my biggest fear is that this feeling appears in the middle of long-standing friendship. It's feel romantic, more than friendship but in grey area. Struggle with my own feelings, ask God for guidance and still waiting.  f*** this feeling.

A letter for God...

Tuhan, life after failure, break up itu sepi & sulit dijalani. Banyak yang bilang itu seperti cacat seumur hidup. Tapi, I trust in You & I know You will make it happen in the right time. Ketemu orang yang tepat di usia 30 tahun & menikah diusia 32 tahun pun masih menjadi hak yang indah Tuhan. Bisa punya keturunan di usia 34 tahun dan memulai keluarga kecil di usia 35 pun masih jadi wonderful blessing for me. Buying my first property or asset at 40 is still an amazing milestone. Moving to a new county at mature age of me maybe 45 or 50 is still a breakthrough.  Aku mulai bisa berdamai Tuhan, sedikit demi sedikit. I don't make others timetable become my pressure or standar anymore. I trus in Your time & timing. I know it was th eperfect one for me. I choose to rejoice in all season of my life.  Thank you Lord, for everything that already happen.  ~AR - 29/10/2025~
