Father's Love

Few years ago, my dad preached a short sermon in a family cell. I found the note of his sermon in his bible. It was about "free from worry". Worry had been his struggle of life since my father was an introvert, melancholic person. The doctor said, one factor that dropped his health was depression, stress because of many things he worried about. Therefore, a virus could easily attacked his body and made him palsied, that we thought as stroke. As I remember him and read his note, my heart is full with joy, knowing that in my father's weakness, God's power shown perfectly. All things that he worried before he passed away, God provided perfectly as he went to the Lord. My mom told me that since 2009, as we have been struggle with finance after the company bankrupt (which my dad was an employee there), my dad had been growing in his faith to the Lord. Of course, there were a lot of times when he worried about our future, but he learned to put his hope in the Lord. Durin...

Death often comes without any warning. I experienced it on Sunday night, April 28, 2013. Suddenly, I became fatherless. Suddenly I lost my father. There was no goodbye.

Di postingan sebelumnya, aku sempat cerita bahwa salah satu dosen pengujiku itu didatangkan langsung dari Corban University. Nah, saat aku harus melangsungkan sidang skripsi yang kedua pada hari Kamis, 25 April 2013, dosen yang bersangkutan sudah kembali ke negaranya. Jadi supaya sidang bisa tetap berjalan, maka digunakanlah teknologi yang namanya internet. Awalnya aku diberi tahu bahwa sidang akan dilakukan menggunakan Skype. Unik ya?
