Pray for The Nation, Pray for Indonesia

A (really) old post, taken from my fs blog :) [see, fs - not fb], but it's my heart shout till now...

August 10, 2008

a week to go. yes. a week to go, and my (well, if you’re an Indonesian, that becomes “our”) nation will celebrate her 63th anniversary. a long time. yes. and i know, as we all know, Indonesia has gone through many things. Her glorious moments, and the worst ones. I remember the time when i got a long, long holiday because of the riot. I was both happy and scared then. I remember the bombs, and so on. But i do remember that wherever God puts me, He wants me to pray for the nation (Jeremiah 29:7)

“Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to

which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the LORD for it, because

if it prospers, you too will prosper.” (NIV)

My prayer for Indonesia... too

"Daddy,

i'm not asking You to stop the catasthropes,

but i do ask You

to strengthen those who suffer

and to lead this land through all..."

#prayforindonesia - 2nd WORLDWIDE trending topic

Neither to brag nor to show off. Just now, i checked my twitter account and found out that #2 trending topic was #prayforindonesia

#2 trending topic!

I am not a nationalist or whatsoever, but i do care for this country, and my heart is for Indonesia. I'm nobody but when the "nobody"s unite their hearts and pray together, i'm sure that miracles do happen. Miracles don't always mean as something good, but they can also be (and i'm sure that they are) the best. Yes, the best for this country...
