I love to sit at God's feet although it's not as easy as I am saying to do it every day because there's a lot of distractions but, His presence is beautiful indeed, it fixes your heart to lean on His heart. Last night my husband and I had a really sweet moment, it's not something romantic between us but it's about our hearts together aligned with God's. We simply sat at His feet, we felt His presences there as we worshiped, read the Word and prayed together. I love these moments! the moments of being in God's presence helps me to wire me to always check my heart.<br />

One day, I had a conversation with my husband and I told him that my goal that someday I want to delete all my social media account. Haha! :D It seems impossible for me now because I want to connect with my family and friends on the other side of the world. Social media is my number one struggle that most of the time I am by myself at home, I could use it to glorify Him but sometimes I don't feel right that I can use that reason to make me feel that I am wonderful (if you have same struggle then you know what I mean).<br />
<br />
When I was younger, my sou burned with the fire of my youth, I had so many dreams to push myself to be successful with what God has gifted me, and of course, I would do it for His glory.<br />
<br />
But, as I grew and I get to know Him deeper, knowing His character, His heart, I could see that it breaks the bridge to get to the place of "Godly Wonderful Me" and do the reconstruction of the bridge to get to the place "Walking in obedience and surrendering myself to Him every day".<br />
<br />
Sometimes I would say, <i>"Oh God, I could do this and that. Wouldn't it be amazing if I could achieve it and you will be glorified?"</i> and in this world, with social media, it's like a big tool for you to be the person that you desired, but again as I draw closer to God, He made that image blur to me.<br />
<br />
He whispered...<br />
<i><span style="color: #660000;"><b><br /></b></span></i>
<i><span style="color: #660000;"><b>"It's not that, my child" </b></span></i><br />
<br />
<i>"So, what does it mean God?"</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i><span style="color: #660000;">"<b> Follow Me, I am a good shepherd. I will take care of you</b></span></i><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i>I will make you lie down in green pastures,</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i>I will lead you beside quiet waters,</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i>I will refresh your soul,</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i>I will guide you along the right paths.</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i>Even though you walk</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i> through the darkest valley,</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i>you will fear no evil,</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i> for I am with you;</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i>My rod and My staff,</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i> will comfort you.</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i> I will prepare a table before you</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i> in the presence of your enemies.</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i>I will anoint your head with oil;</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i> your cup overflows."</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><b><i><br /></i></b></span>
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Psalms 23</i></span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
A heart's ambition, a heart to seek His heart, to follow Him, to walk in obedience, to surrender, to trust Him, to fully depend on Him.<br />
<br />
I pray that this will always be my heart's ambition, to be closer to Him every day.<br />
<br />
What is your heart ambition?</div>

I love having plants around our house, other than the plants bring beauty and breath life into our home, I also like to see them growing and somehow reminds of how I am growing every day. </div>

I love simply being at home, and I am actually most of the time stuck at home. For now, I don't know how to drive and if you live here in Florida and don't know how to drive means you almost stuck at home everyday :D. I have to come with some ideas sometimes to keep me busy at home while my husband is at work. Most of the time what I do is doing projects of home improvements, cleaning, organize, making meals.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the things that I like to do around the house is taking care of these plants. I named some of the plants around our house and my husband named one of them. I think they are pretty along with natural light and fresh air when I open the windows in the morning.</div>

This plant I got from Trader's Joe. This was the very first plant that I got. It didn't say what kind of plant but it only says tropical plant when I bought. I did a search on this plant and I would guess that this plant is philodendron red imperial? If you guys know please let me know here :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I name this plant <i>Courage. </i>She does need courage and love to grow. One time I put this plant on a spot that only has little morning sun and more of afternoon sun but not directly and little water. It still alive but not growing. So I moved to where directly morning sunshine and enough water, it just keep growing. I can see that this plant need a bit of care to grow. This is just like me, I do need love and care from people around me sometimes to grow, I know that ultimately my growth comes from the Lord but when I am surrounding my life with people who bring us close to God, I am really growing. </div>

This Fiddle-leaf Fig tree. We got this one from Lowe's if I am not wrong, it was after summer last year :) My husband name this one Fidel. He is the biggest plant in this house so far and looking beautifully charismatic. This plant is a challenge! Who else with me? Even now, I am still learning to take care of this plant. What I often do, is once a week I take this plant outside during the day when it's a sunny day so the soil will dry more and then after a few hours I would water it and leave the water goes through the soil and bring this Mr. Fidel back to the spot.</div>

I believe this plant is Pink Syngonium Podophyllum. I got this plant last year in springtime. This plant has a pretty pink touch on the leaves, I love when the bright shine around the pink colors it almost brings the pink into white. The name is Miss Harmonie. They look like uniting and growing together it doesn't matter if the leave is big or small they look standing together and close together and it makes a beautiful look on top because of a variant size of the leaves. It reminds me of the perfect harmony of life :) This plant needs a low-medium light and enough water, but I was so brave to move her to the brighter room, but I do put in a spot that doesn't get direct light.<br />

This golden pothos is almost everyone's favorite. Almost everyone who loves houseplants has this plant in their house. I got this plant on the same day as Miss Harmonie last spring. I name this one Sir Obey. Sir Obey, because it keeps growing no matter how the situations this plant growing through :D. But this plant grows fast and beautiful if you give good maintenance.<br />

On these two pictures above, you see I have several plants that I don't really name them. That's because I haven't thought any name yet. I usually name when I know their character well enough and decided to name them :D Let's see I got 2 cactus, 1 aloe vera that grew in our backyard, a nerve plant that I just got a month ago, peperomia, ZZ that I need to put in a bigger pot soon and mints plant.<br />

One day I put these two plants in the front of the mirror that I would fix my hair and makeup and they alost die. Good thing, I move them quickly. They are easy to take care of, just need enough water and bright space to grow! Although they don't grow as much as I expected and I am still learning.<br />

Thes mint plant I got early September last year, it only two stems but I put some soil in this kind of farm box ( I thought it was too big for only two stems ) and grow them with some green onions and after few months the mint spread all over this box and I am really happy about it. :)<br />

The English Ivy. Since it's so pretty and came from Europe I would name her Princess Kate :)<br />
This low maintenance plant and I just put into a bigger pot and bring into our bedroom to bring life.<br />
<br />
<br />
So that is all my about my plants. I still do want to get more plants although sometimes, I think my addiction to this plant thing is bad. BUT, I love to learn about it and watch them grow makes me happy and again, having houseplants for me is a simple image of how God wants me to grow, the more I grow, the more He gives me a bigger place to grow better! Ha! :D It's amazing!<br />
<br />
I plan to update new coming on this blog once in several months.<br />

Today post is about my friend's mission + business. My friend Sylvia, last month she asked me if I could design her a logo, for her new job as Doula and I was flattered by that! To be honest, I didn't have any experience before for logo. I did help some friends for their wedding decor with watercolor but not for a logo. I was excited and nervous at the same time. First I was excited that it's my first experience and nervous if I would disappoint her with my creation, but I did it and I believe God helped me through this *winked eye*</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know this friend and her life-devotion to God and her heart for women in her community.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here I would love to share a little bit of my friend's mission and business along with things that I designed for her :)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What really moved her heart for this grew from her own experiences in each of healthy pregnancies and births to her three beautiful children. Sylvia and her husband were equipped with the care knowledge as they prepared to bring the children to the world really set her up for success and joys in her childbirth. Since after her first birth of her daughter, she knew that she wanted to share a little of "birth magic" with the women in her community. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I started to sketch this logo, the question that popped in my head was why is this name for me it sounds compelling and solemn especially if I were a mom :) It was something when you hear and bring peace to your heart. I did ask Sylvia about the name that she picked. So, she shared a bit of it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i><b>I chose the name Sacred and Surrendered for two reasons, "Sacred" means close to God, and "Surrendered" past tense, implies an intentional and willful choice to give control over. For my business, this, of course, means giving control of control of your body to the process which takes to the birth of your baby; your mind working with not against. </b></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i><b>Personally, in every pregnancy and birth, God showed me His care and provisions to labor naturally and without fear. Whether I came to discover these parts of God's glory instantly or rather reflecting on the experiences I underwent, each time I got to walk away from my births made more whole and closer to God, my Heavenly Father.</b></i></div>

<i><b>I want the woman I serve to know there is something far greater than themselves and experience with which they'll walk through. I want them to be connected to it, in Christ-follower's case, God. It may seem easier to disconnect from the pain and intensity to be felt, but that doesn't have to define them. They cannot be overcome by a surge of every uterine contraction because it is a part of them. Also, helping mamas the purpose of these surges are a part of the greater design to bring their precious baby closer to being held in their arms.</b></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i><b>It takes willful decision to surrender, or give up the control to escape the pain we fear will swallow us up. But if we connect to and trust the process in which our bodies were designed to perform in childbearing, we can fully surrender to it become part of it in a deeper more spiritual way we never would imagine.</b></i></div>

Before we had a house, the very first thing I wanted to have was a big length mirror in the bedroom. Growing up bedroom was always a room that easily to be a mess and cluttered so I decided that we only have few things in our bedroom and wanted to bring some plants. I love having a mirror and some plants around it. I think, there's something about it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One day, I had 3 that I placed in front of the mirror. Sometimes, I use this mirror to fix my hair and put my makeup. Few months after, I found 2 of the plants were dying. I thought perhaps these two didn't like to be there so I moved them somewhere around the house, and after few months I notice the other plant not dying but it looked sad, and I realized that is because of my falling hair and makeup. Again, I removed all the plants there. I was sad about the expectation versus reality. There's nothing there for a month and looked empty.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But today, I figured something out. I found a small basket from our wedding decoration that just sitting in the garage for almost the age of our marriage hehe. I decided to use it and put this small English ivy and hang in the front of the mirror.</div>

I love books but I am a slow reader. I love to smell them, both old and new books & I love pretty and vintage covers :D I use some of them as decoration around the house. So, how is my relationship with books?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I only read things that I am interested in. I don't enjoy electronic books, or audio books. Hah! How quick it is, depends on how much I am interested in the book. Do you have a struggle like me? Hehe. I adore people who like to read. I think they are smart enough to know how and where to escape and live in the world of curiosity. I read books because it's relaxing, it's encouraging, it helps you, it takes you to a different world, most importantly they feed your mind, and some people say that books can be friends too. So, be careful when you pick the books. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also love books, because they help me to not be on my phone all the time when I am just by myself :) hashtag confession hehe :P </div>
<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These are just some of the books that I have, I just finished Everybody Always by Bob Goff, a friend who has an internship in Uganda gave this book last year - and I just finished :D. This book is amazing, it helps to fix your perspective to love people around you, and the most important is to be Love and not only do love. Just like Jesus. If you love humanity, and compassion about people, or if you want to learn how to be a presence and to love people around you this book is highly recommended. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A Blossom in the Desert, This book is a beautiful book. The watercolor painting and the story behind the painting by Lilias Trotter are so encouraging. Lilias not only painting her walk with Jesus by watercolor but also through the words that she used. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Welcome to December, everyone! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I want to share a little bit how is it December for me when I was young.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I could say December first was the day I always get my excitement face "Oh it's December!" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even when I was at school, my mind was just at home hehe, like I am going to decorate the house with mom, I will wrap some empty boxes around the house, gifts, family gathering, some laughs - perhaps some tears of joy, but as I grew from my youth to adult I did realize it's all about <i><span style="color: #990000;">love that pursues me</span></i>. I shared last night to my husband that I am not as excited as I was a kid anymore, not that it's bad but I more realize it's a month to remind my self that I was the reason He came in simplicity. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Somehow it drags me hehe it changed my perspective, even for myself to embrace a simple decor Christmas around our house. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Did you also find yourself different than now when it comes to Christmas? :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

So this time, I would love to share that I made our Christmas stockings from a towel. We have lots of towels from our wedding gift. I couldn't use them all. I separated some to use if we have a guest in our house. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A few weeks ago, I took a towel and tracing a pattern from old Christmas stocking and then sew it to make it new stockings. </div>

Hello Dear Friends, I am very pleased to see that how much everyone welcome me back here. I always feel from the beginning that blogging is another world for me :D. I have facebook and instagram but they are always different than the blog. I appreciated everyone's kindness and warm welcoming to me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Let's jump to the wreath! </div>

I always wanted to have a wreath like you see on pinterest, or commercial or even pretty wreaths in the stores. I told my husband that I wanted to try every Christmas to not spend much money especially for decor, and re-use the old ornaments or upcycling them and turn into another new thing. So this year our first Christmas decor we only bought a real tree and lights for the tree that is because I have some Christmas ornaments that people gave me from previous Christmas. I know it's our first Christmas, but I will treasure more things that I have put my idea and work :) I would like soon to show you our Christmas decoration, stay tuned! </div>

In our yard, we have 3 big jasmine bush. However, they always get puffy so fast especially from spring to summer. I know I didn't have a wreath that exactly what I want, so I decided to make one by using some of the jasmine vines. Ha! </div>

</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>things that I need :</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Jasmine vines (tangled one another and shape it like a circle) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some eucalyptus (recommended because when they dried they still look green)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some baby's breath </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a Christmas ornament (I am using red berries)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Once the jasmine vines dry it'll look more beautiful because the vines turn black and eucalyptus and baby's breath stay the same. Oh, I can't wait for mine to be dried.</div>

We are almost to December! The last month of the year, and I can't believe in a few months it will be 3 years of living my life in the United States. Thankful to God for the One who constantly guides me in everything I need.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As some of you know, these past few years I don't feel motivated to write on my blog, I missed my blog and feel sad that it was abandoned. Moving to a new place, facing a new culture, new life, trying to engage with all the situations that I was in. I was excited, homesick, happy, worry, anxious, amazed, the years of me started to feel disconnected with some friends in Indonesia because of distance, and starting new friendships here. All the roller coaster feelings! Somehow, I lost my idea to write here, was trying so hard to write on my blog but to not so open about me was hard. One thing I learned that God using every season to molding me to become who He wants me to be. I'm praying that God continually uses me to share what He wants me to share here :)</div>

Last December 2017, my husband and I purchased a house. It is a sweet old house, our first house, and we love it. I never knew before that it's such a joy to be a homemaker but I knew that growing up, I loved simply being at home. Since having the house. I love to make our home as a place to relieve a stressful day, more welcoming and a place to fellowship. I would say, it a home that makes your heart longs to be there and grow you closer to God. I don't have a big budget to buy things to make my home look pretty hehe, I am learning to use what I have to build a home, and I want to share this journey with you all. I have inspired by God who showing me that He can use simple things to make something beautiful.</div>

There are things that hards for me to do. One afternoon when I was working, I was thinking of myself... what am I "doing" recently because time goes so fast and I don't want to miss thing that God is going to do in my life. I pulled myself out from my working and simply staring outside from the window. I was thinking, God...what exactly I am doing right now? then my mind started to compare my life with others - in every part of my life. Hmm...I don't need to do that actually, says the depth of my heart...let's start from something small from my life...there's an area that I am truly aware that I still need to surrender to God...I am tired of asking God, fix this and that area of my life. I've been praying and asking God to show me if I am too blind to see it. There are 4 areas that I think I need to surrender to God, it's hard for me to work on these and sometimes what I need is put down my gun and raise my hands to God.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Be A Selfless Person.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
When it comes to everyday life, I wish I have a machine or robot who tells me "Eva, you being selfish..." but that's silly thing I ever thought - that's why Jesus went to heaven so Holy Spirit plays His role as a reminder for us. All we need to do is stick around Him. Because there some other things that I can't even see the lines of doing it for me, or pleasing other people or glorify God. Loving-kindness, caring and serving like Jesus, that's all I want to be... I believe He can help me for this everyday, and it's so much better to hurt with purpose.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Be An Effective Person.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This is such a struggle for me. I get so many distractions from this modern life, and if I am not so careful with my schedule, I will miss something that I think it'll be more important to do for the day. I think having a journal, and set my mind how long I should do things will be a big help perhaps, because at the end I'll have more quality time with my beloved ones and of course to spend time with God. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I hate myself when I am too tired to be with people I love and not really enjoy it. Or when I feel like I am free and I don't have lot of things to do and I ended up watching show for hours, or be on phone scroll down and seeing other people's lives..oh poor poor me (haha - laughing at myself)....rather than organize closet, pantry, or clean windows, writing cards friends who far away from me, or spending time with a friend, loving on them and encouraging them. So I am praying for this that I need God so so much in this area. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Be A Person who Pray more for others not for myself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This one... I just want to say that I am so so captured by the prayer of Jesus before he suffered in John 17. I can't find self-centered thing in this prayer. He poured out little bit of His heart to His Father and the rest He prayed for others and others. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
One day, I found I am too much pray for myself, ask God to work things in my life, and fix this and that, for Him to help me during difficult times...there's nothing wrong about it because Jesus said in John 14:14 "if you ask anything in My name, I will do it " But yet, this can go wrong if we ask everything just for ourselves being happy, nice, and settled. God also wants us to grow through suffering. I remember one time I have my prayer journal and now not anymore....that's so sad I think. Today I asked myself to get back on my prayer journal - it helps alot for me to remember and help for me to see how God works in people life through my prayers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Calm Myself When Panic.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Actually I only wrote 3 things above but as I wrote this post my husband texted me and he said he lost his backpack at airport. I am more panic of my husband being upset and devastated, not because what's in the backpack ( I am but not much :)) because he'll go through rough weekend. I was going to clean the house and make some corn soup but then my spirit deflated. I was panic, and thinking that he probably has some important things that he needs for this weekend, how he will make it and what about if he needs things... So started to calm myself, I stopped worry about and praying to God for the peace in both our hearts, we did what we could do, the rest we let God works on it. It's hard to calm myself when I am so much worried, I feel paralyzed to walk my day yet I remind myself that God is in control and all I need to do is calm myself and pray.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">~Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For on him God the Father has set his seal.~ </span>John 6:27</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
There are so many verses about how powerful God's word is but tonight I decided the verse of John 6:27. Food, every creature needs food, they found comforts in food that's something I can relate with my everyday life that how much I need God, even just to put my contacts or cook for my husband hehe. I love that Jesus also was saying that all we need just Him and Him alone. Doesn't mean that we don't need to work and not take care of ourselves. It's just about how intentionally we get to be with God, sit at His feet, lean to His heart, and listening. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Me, myself still struggling to read my Bible intentionally (that's why I called Little Journey because I know that I need to dig more and get to feel His heart's beat). I'm praying that Holy Spirit help to push myself to defeat my flesh and be with the Word of God. One of things that help me to enjoy my reading time is spot and time. Here I can share some of my favorite spots and why :) I hope you are having fun reading this. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<i>Before marriage life, I have two favorite spots and those two only. In my room it can be on my desk or on my bed, sometimes on the floor, the second is on the roof! Roof?! yes haha I like to see sunrise and sunset, there my place to be with God with no noise and just quiet</i>. So after married, I have a partner to read with so it is more than 2 spots.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I love this spot especially in the morning where the Sun bursting through the trees from my back yard and goes through the window, you can feel its warmth and the birds singing. All I can think is Jesus you are so beautiful...it put my mood to spend longer time with the Word :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Breakfast time... I usually have breakfast time with my husband before he leaves to work and we LOVE to read together. We are now doing Bible from Genesis - Revelation and now we are almost finish2 Kings. Woohoo! I sometimes make a joke that we should go celebrate if we finish old testament :D haha. Alright, before we start our breakfast we read together. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b><i>My Desk or My working Area</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b><i><br /></i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This is mostly happen when I am caught with my work. Sometimes, I feel like I can't read in the middle of a mess or when my mind keep telling me me...I need to finish, I need to finish. I simply ordered myself "REST" it's good pause my busyness and be with God even though just 5 minutes. It's powerful when you really open your heart and be ready for that 5 minutes. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><b>In the bedroom.</b></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This is before bed time, my husband and I do prayer time and read Bible together. It's beautiful after such a long day and you finally rest and lift your heart and be thankful for what He has done.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So that's my little journey of reading Bible. I know someday if we have kids this and that will change but I pray that our hearts to know His word more never fade away...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
How do you like to read your Bible? :)</div>

Yeah, I love writing and drawing. At that time, I never had the chance to play with paint or brushes until one day a lady from my church took me to a house that they needed to empty. She took me there because the lady who owned that house was a seamstress that owned a bunch of sewing stuff. There in that room were some watercolor paints. I grabbed them, just two sets... I never used them until one day a friend asked me to make Christmas Party invitations/postcards. That's when I decided to use watercolor for the first time... and I really liked it! </div>

I've been exploring with watercolor since then. You can see more of my works on my Instagram account <a href="https://www.instagram.com/delvalina37/" target="_blank">@delvalina37</a>. So far I've been giving away my works for those who God lays on my heart. My goal is to tell them they're valued and loved by God...</div>

Last month I decided to join this blog event. My dear friend Stephanie from <a href="http://theenchantingrose.blogspot.com/">The Enchanting Rose</a> created this event and arranged all ladies all over the world. Isn't that cool? :) I have known this event couple years ago but I never had the chance to join when I lived in Indonesia till I moved here. I signed up for tea and mug exchange so I got 2 ladies here. I am glad that one of them sent me thank you card and another one always keep in touch with me through email and we love to sharing our favorite things - which is fun! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's more than what I expected! My first experience " I LOVED IT" like I expecting the packages to come and when it came I felt like Christmas haha. So I opened the boxes and I smiled for every item that the ladies sent me. Especially the notes - it's my most favorite part.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here is from Esther from <a href="http://dollycreates.blogspot.com/">Dolly Creates</a> - she sent me darling things and I love every single item. If you click her blog she has amazing blog and and talented to make dress especially vintage dresses.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Our trip to Asheville is one of my favorite memories from my honeymoon. While driving we laughed, talked about our dreams and future, and sung our favorite songs. Sweet memories indeed :) Whenever this memory comes across my mind, it always puts a big smile on my face. All the sweet memories remind me that He is a good, good Father... this is just a small piece of His faithfulness in my life and I believe there are many more blessings to come.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When we visited the Biltmore Estate, I was amazed by the every detail of the house. The majestic front door, the windows, every room, even the garden– and not only me, everyone there stood in awe. I wondered, "Who is the master?" This building consists of simple pieces that transform it all into something majestic. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Looking through all the pictures and sweet memories... I am amazed for what the Lord has done to me. I am fragile, easily broken, but my Master– He is the the Master of masters. He can grab the broken pieces and turn them into something majestic. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If today I own the world and tomorrow I lose it, what does it matter?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My Master never changes, He is still there...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He is the only One that really matters. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
As I write this, I encourage myself in that I shouldn't be worried because I have seen how my Master worked in the past. He is still there and always will be! :) Reminds me of the verse at the top, "... those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing."<br />

Dear friends,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It has been awhile since I posted any crafting or sewing projects. Well, I have been crafting and sewing, but I never had the chance to take pictures and show you. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
I am really happy to have my sewing and crafting corner - it's a place where ideas pop in my mind– my happy place.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I finished making a wallet. I own a small purse and big wallet which bothers me... so, I decided to make my own, smaller wallet!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GWyqq9LYMRA/V9m47I5mvMI/AAAAAAAACa8/99YyObu9U_Mcj-qeTmKoKQkxw3hxFdIPwCLcB/s1600/display1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="350" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GWyqq9LYMRA/V9m47I5mvMI/AAAAAAAACa8/99YyObu9U_Mcj-qeTmKoKQkxw3hxFdIPwCLcB/s400/display1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is what I used: fabric, thread, cardboard, double sided tape, lace and ribbon.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2JVife3zrmo/V9m6bEhr2FI/AAAAAAAACbE/eFqLiLk4smQLuD0DPaO3yYAgkl7cFY_RgCLcB/s1600/display2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2JVife3zrmo/V9m6bEhr2FI/AAAAAAAACbE/eFqLiLk4smQLuD0DPaO3yYAgkl7cFY_RgCLcB/s320/display2.jpg" width="274" /></a> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First, I designed the shape. I wanted it to look like my passport case so I drew the shapes on the cardboard and cut them out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Second, I covered the cardboard with fabric using double stick tape and combined both sides together. This is where I added the pockets too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now, after you put them together, sew the edges with ribbon. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">I also created a flower design from lace for the latch to keep it closed.</span></td></tr>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span style="font-size: large;">And there is none upon earth </span></b></i><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is one of my favorite verses. Imagine that Jesus is your heart's only desire all the time. All that you can see through your eyes is His beauty. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One thing I pray constantly is: "Dear Lord Jesus, please keep my heart close to You and never let me go." I know my life is falling apart without Him. Sometimes there are moments when I don't feel connected to His heart. I feel empty and desperate. When the sorrow and pain come, they make me feel even worse. The enemy is looking at me and ready to do me in... My heart is crying– crying, "God, I need You, please help me!" I am there sometimes... but Jesus always wins. I do know that He has so many ways to save me and has saved me. Remember that! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I try to keep my heart constantly close to Him– even though the hard times. I read my Bible even though I don't feel like it. I pray even though there are many things distracting me. I even made a place for myself to clear my mind and my soul, remember <a href="https://delvalinatuanger.blogspot.com/2016/08/my-sewing-corner.html">My Sewing Corner</a>? I use that little corner for me to meditate on His word, a place where I feel encouraged and can think of Him.<br />

Dear friends, I have everything I want now (it seems), but it's still not enough without Him :) I feel like I am hunting His presence day by day. Have you ever felt the same way? Tell me how do you keep your heart close to Him? How do you pursue Him when there's a wall in the front of you?<br />
<br />
Our hearts long for Him, but sometimes the world creates a border. I am sure He loves us and He made the way to find us... even when our hearts are grieved and we don't know how to find Him. <br />

Moving to a new Country and new home (my second home) creates new opportunities and various differences; it's challenging, yet beautiful. I realize God is the owner of my life– </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so what should I be worried about?! :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Another thing that I am thankful for is my new family. My husband and I are still staying with my in-law's (his parents) till we find our own house. So, the other day my mother-in-law and I were cleaning the front porch and we arranged all the gifts received from bridal showers and the wedding. After we finished cleaning, we found a small space for me to use for sewing. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's my sewing room that I call "<i>My Sewing Corner"</i> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This room is surrounded by windows and makes me happy while I work. (sewing and crafting) :)</div>

I am new here... new as in: Mrs. Wright *big smile*</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you read my previous posts then you know that I was absent from blogging because of moving to the United States– starting this new adventure! I have no personal computer which prevents me from blogging (or I am just not a good person for managing my blog- hahaha!)</div>

Many things have happened for me as I started this new chapter of life. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I saw that the Lord showed up in every single moment of it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I do not know where to begin, but I can see Him clearly. He is beautiful. </div>

It was the happiest day in my life! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The wedding was beautiful– just what I wanted... it reflected God; it was all about Him.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Because without Him, I would never marry the man of my dreams. Only God could do it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I see Him clearly. He is beautiful.</div>

It was my big day, even though my parents were not there. They still prayed for me five minutes before I walked down the aisle. They even watched the entire wedding through a live stream video.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Surrounded with beautiful people, friends, family (who were strangers for me few months ago)...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I can still see Him. He is beautiful.</div>

I back to this blog many times to write; before Chrismtas, during Christmas, and after Christmas, It all didn't work ( tried couple times to write...but when I re-read before post I decided not to post it. It happened many times. Ashamed! (I am not so good at managing my blog, I wish I could like some of you). And tonight I am trying to back again, and I hope I could finish well.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As you know, I am engaged and it was like boom when I wrote here the whole story of what God has done. Some people or probably myself will like "whats next?". We (Sean & I) have planned the wedding far before he proposed me. It didnt go for details until we were sure. Especially when people asked about us. I wish I could satisfy people with the surely answers. We kept plan and we answered people just like we planned. There were two things in my heart. First, I wished I knew God's mystery plans for our future, then the second is I wish we could easily married like others.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>"Well God, next time if people ask me what should I say? I probably say...if Lord's willing or I have no idea... I surrender...</i></b>" but God spoke me <span style="color: #b45f06;"><i>"<b>there's nothing wrong with your answers - I just wanted to show you how I work and mold you. Thats it. Then in time people will understand through you how I worked. "</b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #b45f06;"><i><b><br /></b></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
How easily when I encouraged people and write on my blog...but when it comes to me...it mess me up and I get to struggle with it. But I'm so thankful that we call Him rock and our secret place. There's a hope when we call His name. </div>

<i><b>It's 7 days till <a href="http://www.dressember.org/" target="_blank">Dressember</a> !!! ( you can click the link)</b> </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>When the first time I heard about <a href="http://www.dressember.org/" target="_blank">Dressember</a> in my is dress in December ( wearing dress during December) I though it's about proper look for women but when I found out it's all about campaign to save women and children from human trafficking. It started from a heart of Blythe Hill you can watch her story <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=423&v=MGuTpWTcSE8" target="_blank">here</a>.</i><br />
<br />
<b><i>Why I wanted to take a part ?</i></b><br />
<i>I adore things about womanhood - my grandmas and my mom showed me how the woman should be, and the power inside ( virtous and dignity) it always started from family ;) and women in Bible stories, & <a href="http://www.biography.com/people/raden-adjeng-kartini-37859#feminist" target="_blank">R.A. Kartini</a>, I still have more favorite of women around the world.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I love to see how mothers lead their children to Jesus </i><br />
<i>I love how the wives respect their husbands and empowering them in life.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I love to see women change the world.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>But then destroyer came and has been using this part to reversed the truth of humanity then my heart breaks for the ladies in slavery. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>and I love wearing dress and skirt ( some of you know it) I just feel empowered by being virtous one.</i><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><i>Things we can do : (Ask God that we can do these things)</i></b><br />
<b><i><br /></i></b>
<i>Praying (it's an investment & changes things). </i><br />
<i>let God uses us wherever we are and whatever we do.</i><br />
<i>Spread the word (break the silence of darkness) using social media, the more people know, the more we make it less.</i><br />
<i>Take a part in campaign, and here are my favorites: </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i><b><a href="http://www.a21.org/index.php" target="_blank">A21</a> this organization run by Christine Cain </b></i><br />
<i>This organization more to rescue the people in slavery.</i><br />
<i>Christine Cain is one of my favorite speakers, I never see her live but I love visiting youtube to watch her.</i><br />
<i><b><a href="http://mercymultiplied.com/" target="_blank">Mercy Multiplied</a> this organization run by Nancy Alcorn</b></i><br />
<i>I knew this organization when I was really young - I ever had dream to work as volunteer here. This organization more to help ladies for the restoration. Before this organization called Mercy Ministries but then they changed the name on October 2015 because their expanded outreach to help the ladies build their lives after saving their lives. If you see my whole blog you always see Mercy podcast :)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i><a href="http://www.dressember.org/" target="_blank"><b>Dressember</b></a> <b>this campaign run by Blythe Hill.</b></i><br />
<i><b><br /></b></i>
<b><i><a href="https://secure.enditmovement.com/about" target="_blank">END IT</a> </i></b><br />
<i>END IT is a Coalition of the leading organizations in the world in the fight for FREEDOM. Our amazing Coalition Partners are doing the work, on the ground, everyday, to bring AWARENESS, PREVENTION, RESCUE, and RESTORATION. Each of them is focused on a different step of the journey.</i><br />
<br />
<i><b><a href="http://www.unicef.org/" target="_blank">UNICEF</a></b></i><br />
<i><b><br /></b></i>
<i><b><br /></b></i>
<i>So ladies, I think it will be fun to wear dress during this December and spread the word. </i><br />
<i>Are you in? </i><br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
She said to them, “Do not call me Naomi; call me Mara,for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ruth 1:20</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As I read the The book of Ruth, I couldn't imagine how was Naomi at the moment though she was Mara but she still trusted Him. It's hard when things are not going as we expected. She has lost her husband now she lost the two sons. Then she asked Orpa and Ruth to leave her. She didn't want them to be a part of her sorrow but Ruth she knew Naomi well , she still wanted to be with her, be a part of her sorrow because she knew there would a good thing to be with Naomi .I believe there must be a desire as a virtuous woman to be good wife and mother or even a grandmother. Oh poor Naomi...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But, the good thing is Naomi knew that God had a plan for her. He turns everything for good. At the end by owning the name of Mara she could see the beautiful work of God. She had grandson called Obed and there would come the Savior of the world. Not only her who could see but also people at Moab could see that the Lord truly has a great plan through the hard times for those who trust in Him (thats where I see Beautiful in bitterness).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: large;">Those who fear you shall see me and rejoice, because I have hoped in your word.</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Psalm 119:74</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As we are strangers in this world there's a season where we are Mara(s) and as I write this to encourage you, also encouraging myself. I am easily person who worry at times but my heart grateful that Jesus has paid my worries at the cross. Trust in the Lord all in good or bad times that He has a great plan. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span style="color: #e69138;">Mara,</span></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span style="color: #e69138;">The morning woman of God who has hoped in the LORD.</span></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span style="color: #e69138;">The broken and dark inside but the Light has found you.</span></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span style="color: #e69138;">The beauty in the weakness.</span></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span style="color: #e69138;">The strength is a part of your soul.</span></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span style="color: #e69138;">The woman that goes through the rivers but it shall not overflow her.</span></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span style="color: #e69138;">The bruised reed that He will not break.</span></b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b><span style="color: #e69138;">The smoking flax that He will not quench.</span></b></i></div>

I love how people could recognize my favorite things to use, to wear, to read, to eat, & what I like to do, what should I like it to be, and how I want it looks like... My family and my close friends wont object me of my idea sometimes because they know it's my thing. There's a little pride in me when I love myself and everything about me. There's nothing wrong with that I mean being confidence. But I wont it grows up, let me dancing in it and kills me - I should kill it first. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let me stop think about me, put myself as how other people would think of me. By knowing people by what's their styles we could please them. I hope it makes sense ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I love pinning - it's another world that could help to improve my style - haha! but then I was pinning lot of stuff during midday. Then the voice in my heart stopped me " Eva! It would be awesome if you could pin His style, " Oh yes! The only question is "Do I know His style?"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I wonder how many of us know God's style. If you do, how did you dig it? I think the only way is being close with Him as always and experiencing life with Him. I probably the person who not knowing His style alot - I mean <i><span style="font-size: large;">He is perfect in His way. The way how He shows love, the way He works on things, the way He dresses Himself so He could show the world His majestic yet it's still humbly and simplicity</span></i>. If God is on pinterest - I bet pinterest couldn't define it. It's too Majestic, isn't it?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Everyday - you, I we, our friends, our kids, our parents, church struggling to stand till He comes back. It's not easy right? God's style that will lead us to stand. We could know how to please Him, we even be wise and conscious during the battle. We help our friends who almost lost in battle and we wouldnt do it if we don't know God's style. Lets dance in His style! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>"</i>While pinterest could help us to define our style I think faith will help us to define God's style - dancing in it"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As I am writing this, I am praying that God reveal Himself and we all can dance all days.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Any words could define His style?</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>I don't think I have - it could be described</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>but maybe these : <i>majestic, humbly, simplicity</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i><br /></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Do you have?</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-size: large;">I will give them a heart to know that I am the LORD, and they shall be my people and I will be their God, for they shall return to me with their whole heart</span></i></div>

<i>It's Friday evening where mom and I decided to go traditional market.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>One of my favorite things I love seeing basket or wood container full of vegetables and fruits.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>I just love to smell the fresh of it all and dreaming if someday I could have garden of veggies around my future house:)</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>We stopped to buy some vegetables and ingredient, and I wanted to.</i></div>

<i>Dear friends,</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>I should apologize for not blogging ( visiting you) using my phone it's sometimes doesn't work for me. I used to blogging with my dad's computer. Now he is not at home because of doing teaching for few weeks, and I should borrow a computer to write here.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>So I tried Wrapped Monogram Wreath. It has been popular on Pinterest and blogging. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>I decided to give it try but without wood instead cardboard :)</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>I needed to print the letter first then it will be easy for me to cut the cardboard, knitting threads and some accessories like flowers depends on what you like.</i></div>
