ARE PRAYING AND WORSHIPING MEANT TO SATISFY GOD?

-
“I served myself to God. I prayed 5 times a day, I fasted, I read the Qur'an more than most people, and I was willing to die or kill for God. But I never felt God was satisfied, I didn't know if He was or not” Spoken by an ex-Muslim, I watched a podcast about his journey to becoming a Christian, but I sensed a slight misconception about his perception. I want to highlight the point of how he was praying to satisfy God. However, I can tell he was raised in a tough environment and I’m not going to judge his whole journey. God is Powerful, God is Great, The Most Merciful, The Most Compassionate, The Most Forgiving. But how could He need us to make Him satisfied? Would that make Him more powerful? Or by not worshiping Him, He becomes less powerful? It feels like a random thought that came out of nowhere, but what is the correct concept behind it? Human beings, like kings such as Nimrod and Pharaoh, needed validation and satisfaction, so they demanded their people worship them...

CANTIK ITU BUTUH VALIDASI? Pernah ga sih kita merasa insecure dan berpikir kalau kita itu ga cantik, terus bandingin diri sama orang lain, kok "aku ga secantik dia yah?" atau pernah ga sih ada temen tiba-tiba nyeletuk "kok kamu kurusan? kok kamu gendutan? kamu tambah item" dan karena komentar itu kita jadi overthinking. Akhirnya, kamu liat kekurangan kamu terus dan berpaku pada overthinking yang buat kamu merasa ga percaya diri. Kita juga pernah liat temen kita orang yang cantik banget tapi ga merasa dirinya sendiri cantik, malahan dia suka insecure sama dirinya sendiri. Tapi kita juga liat temen kita yang mungkin ga secantik si A tapi, dia selalu memberikan aura positif dengan percaya diri. Ga perlu menjadi ekstrovert untuk bisa percaya diri, orang introvert juga bisa kok terlihat percaya diri, itu semua terpancar. Tapi, insecurity itu juga berguna loh agar kita bisa mengubah diri menjadi lebih baik? Betul sekali. Itu kayak jadi awareness buat kita biar jadi lebih ...

I am a sinner, do I deserve a second chance, third chance, or even fourth chance?

-
My life has been filled with many turns, highs, and lows. There have been moments in my life when I have felt the best and the worst. I realize that sometimes I don't like myself in situations where I am surrounded by pleasures from this world. I forgot myself, I was arrogant, I was spending money for unnecessary things, but I also don’t like myself in difficult situations. Sometimes, I get upset at myself for not succeeding more often. I said to God, "I’ve tried my best, but why is it still not enough?” “Why did you do this to me? I have suffered enough.” “Am I not good enough?” “Am I so sinful that You punish me like this?” Maybe God punished me. I have a lot of sins and this is what I deserved. I reached a point where I felt completely hopeless and angry. And sometimes, when things don’t go as I planned, I become furious. I blame everything, others, or even myself. I get so frustrated, overwhelmed by anxiety, and feel like a complete failure. It seemed like my prayers weren...

Who run the world? Girlsssss. Kalian tau ga sih kalau woman power itu bisa jadi inspiratif banget. Bukan cuman cantik, harus dandan, pinter masak, sopan, anggun, we actually can do more than that. Perempuan bisa jadi seperti apa yang mereka mau. Kalian mau jadi hakim? polisi? dokter? arsitektur? model? karyawan? mau bangun bisnis? mau jadi pemimpin? WE CAN! Tapi tau ga sih? kalau stereotip perempuan di lingkup sosial masih ada seperti "Perempuan itu kodratnya cuman di dapur, masak, beres-beres rumah, ngerawat anak." atau ketika kita udah mencapai apa yang kita mau dan sukses dalam karir tiba-tiba dihembusin husshhhh, dan dijatuhin dengan dalih... "Perempuan tuh jangan pinter-pinter amat, nanti ga ada cowok yang mau." "Kalau cewek itu sukses dan mentingin karir nanti cowok minder." But remember, jealousy and insecurity aren't our responsibility. Because our hard work and determination have nothing to do with them. We are the strong people that can face ...
