Daniel 2

This is day two of fasting and again, thanks to God that He has helped me to go through this day! I was about to eat, but then, I occupied myself with study and friends, keeping my thoughts away from food! =p Well, there must be another way to keep my minds away from food, but right now, at least, duty and school are the most effective things to keep me busy. I know, during this fasting day, I have to focus my eyes on God. I don't know how though.

I mean, I am so occupied with study and job...afterwards, I'll meet friends and laugh with them...I can only think about God when I am alone...I want to think about Him in every second of my life. I ask this of you, Lord...

I admire Daniel..He's so full of wisdom..He knows how to bring himself up in front of other people. And he's NOT PRIDEFUL...He knows that the wisdom is not gained by his prayer..but by the grace, the mercy and the favor of the Lord...All that he got was from God...I'd like that kind of attitude...=)

In difficult situation, like when the king wanted to kill all the wise men, Daniel knew that He needed to pray to the Lord...He urged his friends to pray for this thing. Same thing in here, I guess, for Ko Mario...Ko Mario is in the line between life and death and it's a serious matter. I need to pray more and more..like never before..and I also need to encourage others to pray for this matter. I can't do this alone..I know, God'll listen anyway, but it's gonna be more powerful if all of us are asking..Praying for His mercy over this family...=) I'm glad and I'm thankful for this insight..I didn't understand this passage at first, but then, this insight just came to me...!! How powerful a prayer is!! If you pray, God listens and pop! You got it! Just come with expectations to meet with Him!!! =)

I am going to be FAITHFUL....=) Thanks, Lord...

Daniel also interpreted the king's dreamm..hmm..well, I know this is gonna be happening in the future..when the Kingdom of God will reign over us and will live forever...WEll, maybe,this passage wants to remind me about what's really going on...=)

One thing that confuses my mind..well, I read this passage at night, how come I don't get to remember it in the morning, through out my day? I mean, like today...well, sometimes, it popped in my mind about being different for God, fasting by relying on God, but not as strong as it is supposed to be...Lord, I want to remember the passage and apply it to my life. I mean, in real situation, to really put myself into it and face it..Let Your favor be upon my life, Lord...Amen...

Today, we went to Sushi Land!! Yey!! I'm so blotted and I feel like I'm gaining more weight!! WHoaa..this is dangerousss..hauhuahua..well, I just can't stop eating after my fasting period is done..Anyway, afterwards, we went to Uwajimaya..I shopped a bit over there and realized how awkward the situation was. Cipto was darn quiet..well, maybe that's what he's trying to do..I don't know..I don't want to say anyting to him..I don't want to expect anything either..I know he's been hurt so many times, but I can't do anything either. I am afraid if I get closer to him a bit more, he's gonna misunderstand it, and it's gonna be more complicated...Hehh..Lord, I'm just gonna surrender this and him into Your hands...Strengthen him..

Anyway, gotta go to sleep...and I need to manage my financial position!!! C'mon ca!! Be organized!
