Jakarta, March 29th 2020
I believe what's happening right now will become history someday. Start from March 16th my office has begun to implement schedule work from office and work from home. At begining, it was only two groups but a week after the employee's are divided into 3 groups. Jakarta today is a very different portrait, the street is quiet, no more traffic jam (finally)
At 10 AM, my mom and I was folowing online streaming Sunday service. This was second time (first time was last Sunday.
Never acrossed my mind that it would be a very intimade and touchable experience. Sit in front of laptop with ordinary clothes but feel peacefully at mind and heart. I think that's the power of surrender, acknowledging that we are only human, less of power and weak. Realised that we need God in every step of our life. We are totally dependent of God
First Sunday service at home, March 22nd 2020 reminds us that fellowship that God give to us is a precious gift. We never gratefull if we can gather with family, friend, or relatives. We forget to look up on HIM as our creator, all this time we perceive that it's all an ordinary thing, nothing special, we can do that freely and whenever. But when that simplest thing is taken away, we start to see clearly. We are seeking of HIM, something rarely happen. Everybody look for shelter that forgotten this whole time
Second Sunday service at home, March 29nd 2020 by Pdt. Justitia Vox Dei Hattu. The theme is "Hear Our Lament, O Lord"
Bible reading taken from Lamentation 1 :1-17
This chapter has common story with our situation now. When the city is quiet and gripping, when people lamented and almost lost hope. But in Christ our hope is found.
Here are three important points that conveyed :
1. Lament remind us that we only a fragile human being
2. Lament is a form of recognition and surrender before God
3.Lament is an act of faith that the suffering that we face will be end up
On early March, I also learnt about book Lamentation, it's not a coincidence before this epidemic show up in Jakarta, we have pondering about the same bible reading. From the preparation that I made, I also found three important points :
1. No matter how much human sin is, God is generous and compassionate
2. Honesty and hope in suffering
3. God's involvement in returning human unto HIM
In the end we know that perfect recovery only exists and provided by Christ
-In Christ alone, my hope is found-
