"Lisa"

In fact, I didn't like my name because I felt Lisa means nothing and I have ever asked my parent about why they gave me a name called "Lisa"? and they didn't give me a clear answer so I feel curious about my name hehehe...

This summer, I went to Superstore with Cik maria and we found out there is a book about name's meaning for female. And we open it up and I felt so proud with my name.

I found out, Lisa is originated from hebrew means "consecrated to God". Wowww I love this name so much. And I told Ps. Welliam about my name, He said "Yes, it is true, Your life is consecrated to God. we never know maybe God wants you to do one mission in this world so He called you as a minister to fulfill His plan so the other plan could works.Like elizabeth, eventhough she is not really mentioned in the bible but her existence is important in Jesus birth role."

It is true. I come to this world just to fulfill His plan. If I am done, He will ask me to meet Him face to face. That's the greatest thing that I am waiting and yearning for.

"his is in keeping with my own eager desire and persistent expectation and hope, that I shall not disgrace myself nor be put to shame in anything; but that with the utmost freedom of speech and unfailing courage, now as always heretofore, Christ (the Messiah) will be magnified and get glory and praise in this body of mine and be boldly exalted in my person, whether through (by) life or through (by) death.For me to live is Christ [His life in me], and to die is gain [the gain of the glory of eternity].If, however, it is to be life in the flesh and I am to live on here, that means fruitful service for me; so I can say nothing as to my personal preference [I cannot choose],But I am hard pressed between the two. My yearning desire is to depart (to be free of this world, to set forth) and be with Christ, for that is far, far better;But to remain in my body is more needful and essential for your sake.(Philippians 1:20-24)

Because You Love Me

Ini adalah post pertama gw so it will become a special posting hehehe...

"Because You Love Me" lagu ini gw denger ketika gw berada di Center Street Church dalam rangka Father's day. Ketika lagu ini dimainkan, gw merenungkan setiap kata-kata dalam lagu ini. Didalam benakku, gw berpikir "Tuhan, manusia bisa menyanyikan lagu yg begitu indah ini untuk orang yg begitu special bagi hidup mereka, apakah pernah mereka menyanyikan lagu ini sebagai represent hati mereka bagi Tuhan?"

Ini lyric daripada lagi "Because You Love Me":

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all


You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me


You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Comment:
Kalo kita perhatikan lirik demi lirik, kata-kata daripada lagu ini hampir setiap baris merepresent "For all/every..." and "you were...".

Kata "For all/every.."bagi gw pribadi merupakan suatu kalimat yg merepresentkan untuk segalanya dalam hidup ini, or no execption from everything. Dan kata "You were..." merepresentkan kamu memiliki suatu arti dan menjadi bagian bagi hidup saya.

Ketika gw denger lagu gw berpikir, "seharusnya Tuhan, kata for all/everything dan You were" hanya layak diberikan kepada Engkau saja karena manusia tidak sempurna, apalah hak bagi kita untuk mendapatkan suatu appreciation yg bersifat as awhole?"

Selain itu, gw belajar dari lagu ini bahwa kita menjadi segalanya ketika kita dicintai oleh Allah Bapa kita karena tidak ada yg bisa mencuri kasih yg sempurna dari Allah ketika Allah sudah memutuskan mencintai kita sebagai anakNya. We become something, whe we loved by our God.

I wish I could dance with my groom with this song to represent my appreciation to God that He have already loved me first with His perfect love so I can love my groom with His love.
